Overview
Urgent dental care in Chestermere is for problems that need prompt attention but are not sudden emergencies, such as a toothache that is getting worse, swollen gums, a loose filling or an infected tooth. At Dawson Landing Dental, we make room for urgent concerns so pain does not turn into something bigger. Learn about root canal therapy, tooth extraction and wisdom teeth removal below. For sudden trauma or severe bleeding, see our emergency dentist page.
What Counts as Urgent Dental Care?
Urgent dental problems are those that cause pain or risk getting worse if left alone, but are not life-threatening. Getting seen promptly can ease your pain, prevent infection from spreading and often save the tooth.
Common Urgent Dental Problems
- A toothache that is constant, throbbing or keeps you awake.
- Pain when biting or chewing.
- Swollen or tender gums, or a pimple-like bump on the gum.
- Sensitivity to hot or cold that lingers.
- A lost filling or crown, or a chipped tooth that is not causing severe pain.
- Pain from a wisdom tooth.
- A bad taste in your mouth that does not go away.
Urgent Treatments We Provide
- Root canal therapy: removes infected or inflamed tissue from inside a tooth to relieve pain and save the tooth.
- Tooth extraction: removal of a tooth that cannot be saved.
- Wisdom teeth removal: relief from impacted or painful wisdom teeth.
- Repairs for broken teeth, lost fillings and crowns. See our fillings and crowns.
Urgent Care or Emergency?
If you have uncontrolled bleeding, a knocked-out tooth, facial swelling that is spreading or trouble breathing or swallowing, treat it as an emergency. Call us right away at 403-459-9797 and see our emergency dentist page. If you have trouble breathing or swallowing, go to the nearest emergency room. For pain or problems that can wait for the next available visit, urgent care is the right place.
What Happens at an Urgent Visit
We start by asking about your symptoms, examine the area and take any X-rays needed to find the cause. We explain what is wrong and the options for treatment, ease your pain and, when possible, start treatment right away. If more visits are needed, we plan them with you.
Do Not Wait It Out
Pain often means something is wrong. Waiting can allow infection to spread and may turn a simple repair into a bigger procedure. If you feel anxious, ask about our sedation options.
