As you continue reading, an\nemergency dentist in Marion will clear the air by listing some of the common\nwarning signs of dental trauma.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A Loose Tooth<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>When you were a child, having a loose tooth was a celebratory\nsituation. Now that you\u2019re an adult, it elicits the exact opposite response, as\nit should be considered as a dental emergency. If you find yourself in this\npredicament, discontinue using that side of your mouth and reach out to an\nemergency dentist to request a visit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A Severe Toothache<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If your tooth is throbbing, it\u2019s usually a sign of advanced\ndecay that has entered the pulp area where the nerve and canals are housed.\nBefore the problem gets worse and develops into an abscess, it\u2019s important to\nbe treated. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To temporarily stabilize the situation, you can rinse your\nmouth with a salt-water solution and take ibuprofen to ease the discomfort.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Intense Jaw Pain<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In the event you receive a serious blow to the face or\nsuffer a bad fall and suspect you have a broken jaw, you should immediately\nhead to the emergency room. To prevent any movement that could make matters\nworse, you can tie a soft piece of cloth around your head.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">An Abscessed Tooth<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The pain from an abscessed tooth can be even more intense\nthan a typical toothache, and worse, it can radiate throughout your face. If it\u2019s\nallowed to travel to other parts of your body, it could potentially become\nlife-threatening. Thus, you shouldn\u2019t hesitate to seek treatment. Until you can\nbe seen by an emergency dentist, you can take an over-the-counter pain reliever\nto ease the discomfort.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Constant Headaches<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019ve been stressed and you have constant headaches, there\nis a chance that you\u2019re dealing with bruxism (teeth grinding). Over time, the\nunnatural pressure from your upper and lower teeth grinding can wear down the\nenamel (the protective outer layer), which can cause radiating pain. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If the problem is ignored, it can result in advanced wear\nthat leads to tooth loss, so it\u2019s of the utmost importance to seek treatment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There\u2019s never a good time for a dental emergency to occur,\nbut by being able to recognize the symptoms, you can at least take action\nfaster and seek the expert help required to fully recover.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>About the Author<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Dr. James Leon is a graduate of West Virginia University.
