Dental Trauma & Emergencies in Springwood
Whether a mishap on the footy field, a cracked tooth while eating, or a 3 am toothache—dental emergencies can happen when you least expect them. Acting quickly can make all the difference, especially if a tooth has been knocked out or severely damaged. Dr Amrita Sachdeva (Dentist) and our team are here to provide calm, professional care when you need it most.
Knocked-Out, Cracked, or Broken Teeth
A knocked-out adult tooth is urgent. Why? There is a small window of opportunity where it may be possible to replant it. Time matters. Cracked or broken teeth should also be seen promptly to prevent further damage, infection, or sensitivity. Even minor fractures can worsen without treatment, leading to more serious problems later.
What Counts as a Dental Emergency
If you’re experiencing pain, bleeding, or are unable to use your tooth normally, you have a dental emergency. Common signs include swelling, exposed nerves, sharp edges that cut your mouth, or a tooth that feels unstable. You don’t need to wait for things to get worse. We’ll help you get the care you need as quickly as possible.
Sports Injuries & Prevention
Dental injuries during sports are more common than you might think. We often see broken or dislodged teeth from contact sports or accidental collisions. A custom mouthguard can go a long way in preventing serious damage. If you or your child plays sport regularly, ask us about protection.
Here for You, When It Matters Most
When emergencies happen, our goal is to relieve pain, stabilise the situation, and preserve your natural tooth whenever possible. Dr Amrita will assess the damage and discuss immediate and long-term solutions to help restore comfort and function.
