Signs You Need An Emergency Dentist in Chicago


Posted on 12/20/2019 by East Village Dental Centre
Some teeth issues can be fixed naturally over time or can wait till your next appointment, but how do you know if you have a dental emergency. Here are three signs that you should see an emergency dentist in Chicago.

Loose or Missing Tooth


As an adult, you should never experience a wiggly or missing tooth. If you notice your teeth are starting to feel loose, it could mean you have a tooth injury or an infection on your hands. It is common to lose teeth while playing sports or during an accident. You should always see an emergency dentist in Chicago to check for nerve or jaw damage. The same goes for a localized infection.

Serve Toothache


A toothache can be caused by a variety of factors and usually needs an inspection to determine the problem. A minor toothache can be treated by various home remedies such as over the counter pain medications or icing. However, a severe toothache where pain lingers after sensitivity to temperature or touch should always be treated by a dentist.

Swollen Jaw


A swollen jaw can indicate a serious infection of the salivary gland. Without treatment, this infection can lead to fever, trouble breathing or swallowing. Swelling can also cause a blockage that prevents your saliva from helping break down food and wash away bacteria. If you notice swelling in your jaw, contact a dentist as soon as possible.

As a patient, it’s important to be aware of what is going on inside your mouth. If you notice any of these warning signs, contact EV Dental by calling 773-341-9325.
