Find Relief For Your Dental Emergency
Don't ignore severe pain or dental injuries as leaving these untreated can result in further damage to your oral health or lead to infection of other teeth. Since emergencies can strike at any age, we offer immediate help for everyone within your family in emergency situations - Dr. Hardcastle could recommend solutions that could restore your smile like:
- Gum Disease Treatment – Severe pain in your mouth may be a sign of gum disease. We can restore your gum health with a deep cleaning procedure. We may recommend follow-up appointments to further prevent the infection.
- Tooth Fillings – A cavity can be painful, and fillings are often the best solution. Our tooth-colored fillings are metal-free, so they will blend in beautifully with your smile.
- Root Canal – There’s no need to fear a root canal based on its negative reputation. It stops pain and saves your tooth from an extraction. If an infection has reached the pulp of your tooth, we’ll treat the disease and get your tooth back to its healthy state.
- Tooth Removal – Sometimes an extraction is the best option to save other healthy teeth. We’ll gently remove the tooth and then work with you on a replacement option once you’ve healed.
- Dental Crowns – A crown can cover a damaged tooth or large cavity. We can also place one with an implant if you need to replace a lost tooth.
No need to feel stressed over any of these procedures! Sedation options available, from laughing gas to oral sedation, may help alleviate anxiety. Our staff will also show you what's going on inside your mouth with an intraoral camera and answer any of your questions about what is happening. Enjoy cozy amenities like plush blankets and soft pillows while watching television during treatment for added distraction.

Protect Your Smile From Dental Emergencies
Most people would rather avoid emergency situations whenever possible! While it may not be possible to stop every urgent dental situation from arising, there are steps you can take in advance that could help ward off most. Here are a few suggestions:
- Visit us twice each year for your dental checkups - it will keep the problems at bay before they worsen! By coming regularly for cleanings and exams, we can address oral health concerns before they become painful issues.
- Wear a mouthguard. When playing sports, we understand the need for devices that protect from possible injury to both yourself and your children's teeth. At Custom-Made Mouthguards of Chicago we can custom make one just for you that fits comfortably and lasts longer than anything available at store stores. Furthermore, we can offer mouthguards designed to stop teeth grinding which can result in injury to the jawbone or other body parts.
- Do not use your teeth like scissors! While we understand you may want to open that package that just arrived from Amazon or eBay with ease, use of teeth may cause you damage or chip one of them out causing chipped or loosened enamel a possibility.
- Practice good oral hygiene! Brushing twice and flossing at least once each day are both great ways to protect against bacteria and cavities, and we can go over your at-home routine and offer tips to improve it during your checkup visit.
- Avoid eating too much sugar. Consuming an abundance of sweets increases your risk for cavities. Be sure to maintain a nutritious and balanced diet throughout the day while sipping water as often as possible - your smile will thank you!

Common Questions About Dental Emergencies
Can you help with my dental emergency?
Yes! Over his two decades of practicing dentistry, Dr. Hardcastle has helped thousands of patients to feel better and create beautiful smiles. His extensive experience means he possesses all of the skills and know-how your family may require for any emergency dental situations that arise.
Can I prevent dental emergencies?
No one anticipates a dental emergency, yet you can still take steps to decrease its likelihood. Follow ADA recommendations - including brushing and flossing daily and getting regular dental cleanings - will keep your teeth strong while decreasing your risk of tooth infections or gum disease. In addition, we advise wearing an athletic mouthguard during active sports.
Can I go to the ER for dental emergencies?
Yes, you can visit an emergency room (ER) to treat dental emergencies. An ER doctor may be able to prescribe stronger pain medication than over-the-counter options; however, since no dentists are on staff there you won't be able to receive root canal or extraction procedures or any other necessary dental treatments; if infection arises however they can provide antibiotics until you see Dr. Hardcastle.
