For Thirroul Patients
When a tooth will not wait
Dental problems rarely arrive at a convenient time. A tooth wakes you at night, you bite on something hard, or your jaw aches every morning and you cannot say why.
The first step is a phone call. Describe what you feel, when it started and whether it is getting worse. Our team can tell you what to do next and arrange a time to see a dentist.
If you have trouble breathing, talking or swallowing, swelling around your eye or neck, or a lot of blood going down your throat, call Triple Zero (000) or go to a hospital emergency department.
Care To Ask About
What a sore tooth might lead to
Your dentist examines the tooth before suggesting anything. These are the conversations patients often have after an urgent visit.
Root canal treatment
When the inside of a tooth is infected or inflamed, your dentist may discuss treating it instead of removing the tooth.
