Handling a Dental Nightmare This Halloween

You’re at a Halloween party when a toothache strikes. It hurts a lot and you don’t quite know what to do. Or you’re taking your children trick or treating; you bite into a piece of Laffy Taffy and suddenly a filling falls out. What do you do?

It’s easy (albeit unpleasant) to handle a broken limb. You simply call 911 and wait for the ambulance to arrive. Obviously, we hope you never yourself or a loved one in that situation. But what do you do when the emergency happens to your teeth? The answer is also simple if a bit less obvious.

In the case of a dental emergency, you should give our office a call. At 1st In Smiles in Plano, TX, we offer same-day emergency dental care for you and your loved ones. We can determine the cause of your pain, and help you get relief for it right away. Don’t out off dental care! Most problems will only get worse with time, not better. Pain is your body’s way of telling you that something is wrong.

At our office we have a wide-range of hours available to help serve you. We offer early morning hours Monday through Friday. We also offer evening hours on Monday and Thursday. We are one of the few offices in the area to also offer Saturday hours.

Just call our office and we’ll get an appointment scheduled for you right away. If you’re nervous about receiving treatment, you may be interested in our sedation dentistry services. We offer nitrous oxide sedation – also called laughing gas – free of charge for all our procedures.

Laughing gas will help make you comfortable and at ease right away. We place a small mask over your nose and breathe in a clean and safe mixture of nitrous oxide and oxygen. Your relaxation will allow us to work to provide the care you need with less stress and water on your mouth.

Common dental emergencies we treat include lost fillings, lost dental crowns, toothaches, and even knocked-out teeth. If it’s causing you pain, it’s a problem. So let the experts at 1st IN Smiles work together to bring you the relief you need. We can restore lost fillings, crowns, and even teeth.

Even if you think your dental pain is not an emergency, you should still call our office to schedule an appointment. We will work to determine the root of the main using our state-of-the-art technology. We can also treat your symptoms and problems before they’d deteriorate and cause you more pain. What may be a simple and small cavity today can turn into an infection next week.
