Emergency vs. General Dentist: Is There a Difference?

Both emergency and general dentists are rooted in the foundations of general dentistry. Yet, emergency dentists receive extra training tailored to urgent care situations.

General dentists, prevalent in the dental field, cater to a diverse age range, from children to the elderly. While all specialise in various areas of dentistry—including family and emergency dentistry—they all undergo foundational general dentistry training. But emergency dentists take it a step further, honing skills to address sudden and severe issues like dislodged teeth, chipped teeth, or even fractured jaws.
You'll often find emergency dentists in hospitals, urgent care centres, or dedicated emergency dental clinics, ready to provide immediate care to those with pressing oral injuries.

For years, Supreme Dental Heyfield has been a cornerstone in the Heyfield community, delivering prompt emergency dental care.

Your Emergency Dental Visit: What to Expect

During this appointment, they will review your medical history, conduct a thorough visual examination, and might take X-rays to pinpoint the issue, leading to an informed diagnosis. If a procedure is required, your dentist will brief you on the steps, anticipated recovery time, and any post-treatment care. To ensure your comfort, they might apply anaesthesia or provide immediate pain relief, which can range from local anaesthesia to prescribed painkillers.

After the procedure, based on the nature of your emergency and your medical history, the dentist might prescribe medication for pain or any potential infection. They may set up follow-up appointments to monitor your recovery and give guidance on at-home oral care to forestall future issues. Remember, in the face of a dental emergency, timely intervention is crucial, as delays might exacerbate the problem and raise the risk of further complications. We recommend reaching out to your dentist or an emergency dental clinic at the earliest in such cases.
