Emergency Dental Care

At Bilski Dental, we
often encounter patients with dental emergencies, such as chipped teeth.
Understanding what to do in these situations is crucial for preserving the
tooth and ensuring the best possible outcome.

Immediate Actions for a Chipped
Tooth:

• If you can locate the
  chipped piece of the tooth, carefully pick it up and keep it safe, preferably
  wrapped in a clean cloth or handkerchief.
• For a completely
  knocked-out tooth, it’s recommended to keep the tooth moist, either
  by placing it in milk or, in an emergency, holding it in your cheek until you
  can get to a dentist.

What to Do with the Chipped
Piece:

• If the chipped piece
  is sizable, bring it to the dentist. We can often bond the original piece
  back to the tooth.
• The success and
  longevity of the bond depend on the tooth’s condition and the
  patient’s level of activity.

Solutions When the Chipped
Piece is Missing:

• If you can’t
  find the piece of the tooth, modern dental bonding techniques can effectively
  restore the tooth’s appearance.
• We use acrylics that
  match the natural color of your enamel to fill and shape the chipped
  area.
