With over 25 years of experience, Dr. Hanam-Jahr uses advanced technology and gentle techniques to treat a wide range of emergencies efficiently and comfortably.

Common Types of Dental Emergencies

Not all dental issues require emergency care, but certain conditions demand immediate attention to prevent complications. Dr. Hanam-Jahr and her team treat every urgent case with care and precision.

• Severe or persistent tooth pain.
• Cracked, fractured, or knocked-out teeth.
• Lost crowns, fillings, or veneers.
• Swelling or abscesses caused by infection.
• Soft tissue injuries involving the lips or gums.
• Loose dental implants or bridges.

Understanding when to seek help ensures that problems are treated early and effectively. The sooner you contact the office, the more options are available for saving the tooth and relieving discomfort.

Emergency Restorative Treatments

When a filling or crown breaks or falls out, prompt restoration prevents further damage. Dr. Hanam-Jahr can repair or replace these restorations during the same visit using high-quality materials that match your natural teeth.

Tooth fractures, chips, or breaks are treated with bonding, veneers, or crowns depending on severity. Same-day technology allows many of these treatments to be completed in one appointment, restoring both comfort and appearance immediately.

Infection and Abscess Management

Dental infections and abscesses are among the most painful emergencies, requiring immediate care to prevent the spread of bacteria. Dr. Hanam-Jahr begins treatment with digital imaging and careful evaluation to locate the source of infection.

Root canal therapy may be needed to remove infected tissue and save the affected tooth. Antibiotic therapy and drainage can also relieve pressure and swelling, helping you recover quickly while protecting surrounding structures from further harm.

Treatment for Knocked-Out or Dislodged Teeth

When a tooth is knocked out, fast action increases the chances of saving it. If possible, keep the tooth moist in milk or saline and contact our office immediately for instructions. Dr. Hanam-Jahr will examine the area and determine if reimplantation is possible.

If the tooth cannot be saved, options like dental implants or bridges can restore your smile permanently. These solutions not only look natural but also maintain alignment and prevent bone loss, ensuring long-term function and aesthetics.

Pain and Sensitivity Relief Options

Tooth pain and sensitivity often signal deeper problems, such as decay or cracked enamel. Dr. Hanam-Jahr begins by identifying the cause through digital X-rays and diagnostic imaging. Immediate steps are then taken to alleviate pain and treat the underlying issue.

Depending on the diagnosis, treatment may include fillings, root canal therapy, or desensitizing applications. Patients leave the office with relief from discomfort and a clear plan for preventing future flare-ups.

Dental Emergencies in Cosmetic Dentistry

Cosmetic restorations like veneers, crowns, and bonding can occasionally become damaged or dislodged. These situations are considered emergencies because exposed tooth structures can quickly become sensitive or infected.

Dr. Hanam-Jahr repairs or replaces cosmetic restorations with precision, ensuring your smile looks as beautiful as it did before the emergency. Using advanced materials and same-day technology, she restores both function and aesthetics without delay.

Comparison: Emergency vs. Routine Dental Care

While routine care focuses on prevention, emergency dental care addresses immediate problems. The table below highlights key differences between both types of visits.

Type of Care	Emergency Visit	Routine Visit
Purpose	Treat pain, trauma, or infection	Prevent decay and maintain health
Timing	Same-day or after-hours	Scheduled every 6 months
Common Treatments	Root canals, repairs, extractions	Cleanings, exams, fluoride treatments
Focus	Immediate relief and restoration	Ongoing prevention and monitoring
Duration	Typically 30–90 minutes	Usually 45–60 minutes

Both types of care are vital to maintaining oral health. Preventive checkups reduce the likelihood of emergencies, but when one occurs, prompt treatment protects your smile and overall well-being.

Preventive Measures and Long-Term Care

Many dental emergencies can be avoided with consistent care and good habits. Prevention plays a key role in maintaining a healthy smile for life.

• Attend regular checkups and cleanings.
• Wear a mouthguard during sports or high-impact activities.
• Avoid chewing ice, pens, or hard foods.
• Brush and floss daily to prevent decay and gum disease.
• Report any discomfort or damage early.

Dr. Hanam-Jahr helps patients develop personalized preventive plans based on their oral health and lifestyle. By identifying risks early, she ensures your teeth and gums stay healthy and strong.

Dental emergencies can be stressful, but the right care makes all the difference. Dr. Hanam-Jahr and her team create a welcoming environment where patients feel supported and reassured from start to finish.

Her extensive training in cosmetic, restorative, and emergency dentistry allows her to treat pain and restore aesthetics simultaneously. Every patient receives attentive care focused on comfort, trust, and long-term results.
