The Secret To Handling A Halloween Dental Emergency

October 24, 2020
Emergencies 2 | Warrenton, VA | Drs. Yung & Jelinek
Home > Blog > The Secret To Handling A Halloween Dental Emergency
October 24, 2020

One of the reasons we tend to see more dental emergencies this time of year is because people are celebrating a bit more for seasonal and holiday parties.

Not that holidays and parties are high-risk for your teeth, but we tend to be less focused on safety because we’re having fun, eating foods and candy we don’t usually eat, playing games that are a little more rambunctious and physical, and the list goes on.

Your family’s night of trick-or-treating can take a stressful turn if one of the kids trips over their costume, falls down on the sidewalk in all the excitement, or bites down on a hard piece of candy that results in a cracked tooth.

Dental Problems Happen Even During A Holiday

When things like this happen, it helps to know ahead of time the best way to stay calm and handle the situation successfully.

That’s what we’re here for! We offer emergency dental care in Warrenton, VA at Drs. Jelinek & Yung so you can fix painful, unexpected issues with your teeth and get back to your holiday fun.

The Secret To A Smoother Dental Emergency

Maybe you were expecting some top-secret, surprising strategy for handing a dental emergency, but the truth is, it’s incredibly simple.

Just store our phone number in your contact list so that help is just a click away. While it may seem insignificant, you’d be amazed at how much it will help you stay calm and minimize an already stressful situation when you don’t have to worry about searching for a nearby emergency dentist.

Another thing you can do to make an emergency like this a bit smoother is to know what constitutes a dental emergency. Although we encourage you to call us regardless to be on the safe side, here are some common problems we would want to treat as soon as possible:

  • Your gums are sore, swollen, or bleeding
  • You have a toothache that keeps getting worse, even with pain relievers
  • An infection or abscess in your mouth is painful or inflamed
  • You have difficulty or discomfort chewing your food
  • You have a loose, cracked, or lost filling or crown
  • A tooth has been knocked out or loose

Call When You Need Help!

You probably take every precaution to avoid accidents that affect your teeth, but unfortunately, dental emergencies, like all others, can happen to anyone unexpectedly.

The important thing to remember is that you know where to go when you or someone in your family needs dental treatment as soon as possible.

Part of our commitment to your health, comfort, and happiness is making sure your dental emergencies in Warrenton, VA are a priority, always doing everything we can to assist you at the earliest availability so you can get out of pain and get your smile back quickly.

If you need emergency dental care, Call Drs. Yung & Jelinek at 540-253-1377 to schedule an appointment with one of your friendly Warrenton, VA dentists.

I have been a patient of Dr. Jelineks since the late 1980’s. He is an outstanding dentist, thoroughly explaining everything and very gentle and caring when performing dental procedures. I recently met with Dr.Drew and look forward to working with him along with his father.
