Patients — Dentistry & dental emergencies

Avoid hot, cold and sugary food in the meantime. Contact the practice as soon as possible: pain that appears without an obvious cause always deserves an examination.

Keep the fragment if possible and contact the practice the same day: treatment is often simpler when it happens quickly.

An impact, even without immediate pain, can have delayed consequences for a tooth. Contact the practice for a check-up.

Keep the crown and avoid chewing on that side. Contact the practice for rebonding or replacement.

Swelling can be a sign of infection: contact the practice promptly, especially if accompanied by fever.

Isolated bleeding after an impact should be monitored; repeated bleeding when brushing deserves a periodontal check-up. Contact the practice.

Occasional sensitivity is common, but if it persists or worsens, contact the practice to identify the cause.

Mild discomfort in the days following a treatment is common. If the pain increases or lasts more than a few days, contact the practice.
