What Is Your Emergency Dentist Looking For During a Dental Exam?
Your emergency dentist will conduct a thorough and efficient dental exam to quickly identify the cause of your discomfort. Using advanced digital tools and techniques, we ensure accurate diagnosis and effective treatment to relieve your pain. Here’s what our expert team looks for during an emergency dental exam:
- Signs of Infection or Abscesses
Tooth infections or abscesses are serious conditions that can cause intense pain. Your emergency dentist will use digital X-rays and 3D imaging to detect infections at the root of the tooth or in the surrounding bone. - Tooth Damage
Cracked, chipped, or fractured teeth are common causes of dental emergencies. We’ll examine the affected tooth closely, using digital scanners to assess the extent of the damage and determine if you need a filling, crown, or extraction. - Cavities or Tooth Decay
Untreated cavities can escalate quickly and become extremely painful. Our digital diagnostic tools allow us to find even the smallest cavities, so we can treat them before they worsen. - Gum Disease or Inflammation
Gum inflammation (gingivitis) or advanced gum disease (periodontitis) can also cause severe discomfort. During the exam, we’ll check your gums for signs of infection, recession, or inflammation, and recommend appropriate treatment. - Oral Trauma
Accidents or injuries can lead to loose or displaced teeth, cuts, and bruises in the soft tissues. Your emergency dentist will assess any trauma to the teeth, gums, and jaw, ensuring quick, effective care. - Previous Dental Work
We will also examine any prior dental work, such as crowns, fillings, or root canals, to ensure they are intact and not contributing to your current pain or discomfort.
At Green Apple Dental, we prioritize your comfort and use advanced technology to diagnose and treat dental emergencies swiftly and accurately. If you’re in pain or experiencing a dental emergency, trust our experienced team to deliver expert care and fast relief.
The dental exam can catch problems early – before you can see or feel them – and when they are much easier and more affordable to treat.
Your Surrey emergency dentist will explain what’s happening during the exam and give you a summary of the findings. If you are not completely understanding, be sure to ask. As patient, you are a full partner in your oral health care and we have lots of great digital tools to ensure you understand what is happening in your mouth.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Dr Kooner and Dr Cancar like to allow an hour for the first appointment. Each patient’s needs vary greatly and as such the time needed to create a treatment plan varies as well. For some patient’s it may not be ideal to start with a cleaning, so we prefer to book your cleaning after the exam is done.
If in doubt, call our office and we can help you determine what would be the best course of treatment. Generally, we allow for emergency patients to come in right away during office hours. Although there may be a bit of a wait, this ensures that you will be seen as soon as possible.
X-rays are prescribed on a case-by-case basis. Dr Kooner and Dr Cancar prefer to review a patient’s dental history, and examine their mouth before deciding when and which x-rays are needed. Usually x-rays are prescribed once a year.
We recommend a dental exam and cleaning every 6 months. Some patients require more frequent cleanings. Improving your oral hygiene routine at home will aide in improving your oral health, and will require less time at your hygiene visits.
If you call our office after hours the voicemail will provide Dr Kooner’s and Dr Cancar’s personal phone numbers. Please leave a message and the dentist will call you back as soon as possible.
We will claim insurance directly when we can.
We do not offer treatment under general anesthetic; however we do offer conscious oral sedation to help you feel more relaxed during your dental treatment.
