I’m trying to decide if I need to see the dentist or if this is just pregnancy-related. I woke up with a horrible toothache across my upper right teeth. It felt like I did the last time I needed a root canal treatment. A friend mentioned this happens in pregnancy even when nothing is wrong. […]
Loose Adult Teeth
Can an adult tooth which is loose be saved? I noticed this morning that I have two loose teeth. They’re right next to each other. I don’t know if I damaged them without noticing or if something else is going on. I do know they wiggle when I move them. Is this something that can […]
Will a Dentist Treat a Canker Sore with an Emergency Appointment?
My husband has been in absolute agony for the past few days. I took a peek at what was bothering him and it looks like he has a canker sore. He couldn’t eat his dinner last night and I’m getting worried. Is it possible a dentist will treat him? Maybe even as an emergency appointment […]
Emergency Dental Visit Disaster
I can tell you all of this is my own fault. If I’d taken care of my teeth to begin with or at least had a dentist of my own, I’d have never needed this emergency dental visit to begin with. That being said, this dentist really did a number on me and I don’t […]
Emergency Dentist Refuses to Fix Another Dentist’s Crown
I had a dental crown done almost six months ago. It’s hurt from the beginning. The dentist has adjusted it almost 7 times and finally said he’s done all he can do. He felt it was just a matter of me getting used to it. I tried. I really did. Then last night while I […]
How do I handle a knocked-out tooth?
We were on a play date at a friend’s house the other day and our boys were riding their bikes when all the sudden one of them came in bleeding from his mouth! Thankfully it wasn’t my son, but his friend’s tooth was completely knocked after toppling over the front of his bike. His mom […]
I got “bounced” at a local venue; shouldn’t they pay my emergency dentist bill?
A few weeks ago I had one of the worst experiences of my life when my friends and I went to a local venue for live music. Nothing out of the ordinary was going on, we’d been to this place many times and it has always been ok. Well, for whatever reason, people got real […]
Playing the “match” game with emergency dentist
It’s just my luck that I would get a terrible toothache while my dentist was on vacation. Since I had no other options, I looked up an emergency dentist and they were able to squeeze me in. The overall experience was good – the staff and doctor were great and they took good care of […]
Can’t I trust bonding from the emergency dentist to last?
We had an ice storm last weekend and wouldn’t you know, I fell. Instead of landing on my backside, my face took the brunt of it and all I have to show for it is a black eye and a broken tooth. I looked like I had been in a fight. Of course, my regular […]
Tooth trouble while pregnant… can I get a root canal?
I’m in my third trimester and woke up the other day with a terrible toothache. The pain got so bad that I finally broke down and went to an emergency dentist and he wanted to do a root canal. He assured me it was safe, but I just couldn’t do it right then and there […]
