Emergency Cavity Treatment
Our Riverside dentists give you the emergency cavity treatment you need to bring your smile back to full health!
In many cases, a sharp, painful toothache is caused by a stubborn cavity that has burrowed its way past your tooth’s enamel and has begun infecting and inflaming the soft, sensitive dental pulp beneath keeping everything alive and healthy. At Gold Coast Dental Riverside, our emergency dentists don’t waste a second in examining your smile to diagnose the severity of your decay. For many patients, a dental filling or crown is enough to take care
of your tooth’s specific problem. A root canal treatment may be needed to clear out the damaged and inflamed pulp tissue as well as to disinfect the tooth. Your root canal procedure will then be sealed and reinforced with a filling or crown. If your tooth decay becomes bad enough, it may move all the way through the root of the tooth and begin infecting the surrounding gum tissue. This often leads to a tooth abscess, a pocket of pus that can be
dangerous if left untreated and undrained. Once an abscess forms, the infection has harmed the dental pulp enough that your tooth is at risk of dying. Without an immediate root canal, the tooth can no longer be saved and a tooth extraction will be needed to save the rest of your smile from further infection and decay. Your toothache relief is here! Call our Riverside office today at (951) 688-6000 to speak with one of our emergency dentists right away.

-
Can a toothache go away on its own?
If your toothache suddenly disappears, you should come into our office for emergency dental care as soon as you can. A tooth infection doesn’t go away on its own, and it can eventually damage the blood vessels and nerves in your teeth until there is no sensation left. At this point, only an immediate root canal has a hope of saving your tooth. If you wait too long, the tooth will need to be pulled.
-
What can be done for a cracked tooth?
If a cracked tooth is only cosmetic, it can be restored with dental bonding or a porcelain veneer. However, if the crack runs deep to the dental pulp layer of your tooth, it can damage the nerves and blood vessels in your tooth or become infected if left untreated for too long. Depending on the damage to your tooth, a root canal and crown may be needed to remove any harmed or infected tissue and restore your tooth to full strength.
-
What causes gum pain?
Gum pain can be caused by a large number of problems - injury, canker sores, abscesses, oral cancer, hormonal changes, and smoking - but the leading reason is gum disease. Gum disease usually starts with bleeding, redness, tenderness, and swelling of the gums, but it can progress further to deteriorate your gum tissue and create periodontal abscesses as well.
-
Why do root canals take 2 visits?
During a root canal, the first appointment will focus on removing any and all infected dental pulp and tissue inside your teeth before capping it with a temporary filling or crown. The next visit will involve fully cleaning and disinfecting the tooth canal before filling and sealing it with a permanent filling or crown. Your tooth will be properly shaped and adjusted to restore your bite to normal.
-
Do you always need a crown after a root canal?
Not all teeth require a crown after a root canal, but they DO all need reinforcement to protect them from future cavities and infection. With front teeth, this usually means a composite filling. For teeth with more than one treated dental canal, your dentist will most likely strengthen your tooth with a dental crown.
-
Is there such a thing as emergency wisdom teeth removal?
Absolutely! When a wisdom tooth is fully or partially impacted, it can cause pain or stiffness in your jaw, gum infection and swelling, and even cause your teeth to shift. During these cases, your dentist may need to perform an emergency wisdom tooth extraction to prevent even worse problems like jaw and tooth cysts, dental decay, damage to neighboring teeth, and orthodontic problems.
