Dental emergencies are urgent oral conditions that require immediate care to prevent pain, infection, or permanent damage. While not typically life-threatening, these issues can worsen quickly if left untreated. Prompt attention from the team at Nova Dental can help you avoid complications and restore your smile.
At Nova Dental, we frequently treat a variety of dental emergencies, including:
Intense or sudden toothaches
Cracked, fractured, or chipped teeth
Knocked-out (avulsed) permanent teeth
Lost crowns or fillings
Broken dental appliances (such as clear aligners)
Loose or broken restorations
Objects lodged between teeth
Oral infections or abscesses
Cuts or injuries to the lips, cheeks, gums, or tongue
If you experience any of these symptoms — or another concerning dental issue — don’t delay. If you’re near Harrisburg, Progress, Colonial Park, or surrounding areas, call Nova Dental or visit us for immediate care.
While accidents are sometimes unavoidable, you can take simple steps to help reduce your risk of a dental emergency:
Wear a mouthguard during sports to protect your teeth from impact
Avoid chewing hard items like ice, popcorn kernels, and hard candy
Break bad habits such as using your teeth as tools or biting nails
Practice excellent oral hygiene — brush and floss daily and visit Nova Dental for regular cleanings and exams
Be mindful of foreign objects — avoid chewing on pens or pencils
Even with the best prevention, emergencies can still happen. When they do, trust the expert care team at Nova Dental to provide fast and effective treatment.
