Tooth Trauma

Accidents happen, and when they involve your teeth, quick and effective care is essential. At Germantown Dental Village, we understand the importance of addressing tooth trauma promptly to preserve your oral health and promote a speedy recovery. Our tooth trauma services are designed to handle a range of dental injuries, from minor chips to knocked-out teeth

Common Types of Tooth Trauma:

  • Chipped Teeth: Whether it's from a sports injury or an accidental fall, a chipped tooth can be painful and interfere with oral function. Dr. Nhu can assess the extent of the damage and provide effective solutions to restore both function and aesthetics.
  • Cracked or Fractured Teeth: Severe impact or trauma can lead to cracks or fractures in teeth. Dr. Nhu uses advanced diagnostic tools to evaluate the extent of the damage and recommend appropriate restoration treatments.
  • Avulsed (Knocked-Out) Teeth: Knocked-out teeth require immediate attention. We provide emergency services to re-implant the tooth whenever possible to increase the chance of saving the natural tooth.
  • Intrusion or Extrusion: When a tooth is pushed into the jawbone (intrusion) or partially dislodged (extrusion), professional attention is needed right away. Dr. Nhu assesses the situation and implements the necessary interventions to reposition and stabilize the affected tooth.

Our Tooth Trauma Services:

  • Emergency Care: We prioritize timely responses to dental emergencies, providing immediate relief and assessing the extent of tooth trauma.
  • Digital Imaging: Our state-of-the-art digital imaging technology allows us to capture detailed images of the affected area. Dr. Nhu uses these images to accurately diagnose the situation and create an effective treatment plan.
  • Restorative Dentistry: Depending on the severity of the tooth trauma, we offer a range of restorative solutions, including dental bonding, crowns, and other customized treatments to restore both form and function.
  • Patient-Centered Approach: We understand that tooth trauma can be distressing. Dr. Nhu and his compassionate team take the time to explain procedures, address concerns, and work collaboratively with patients to achieve optimal outcomes.
