Emergency Dental Care in Chicago, IL
Dental emergencies can happen suddenly, and when they do, fast, compassionate care matters. At More Smiles of Beverly, Dr. Adekola and our team provide urgent, same-day emergency dental care in Chicago to relieve pain, treat the problem at its source, and help you return to normal life as quickly as possible.
Whether you are experiencing severe discomfort or visible dental damage, our experienced team is here to help.
Common Dental Emergencies We Treat
We frequently see and treat the following dental emergencies:
- Severe tooth pain or sudden sensitivity
- Swelling of the jaw, mouth, or lips
- Lost or broken fillings
- Broken teeth
- Chipped or cracked teeth
These conditions should not be ignored, as delaying care can lead to infection, worsening pain, or permanent tooth loss.
Emergency Dental Treatment Options
Every dental emergency is unique, which is why our team takes the time to carefully evaluate the source of your pain or damage before recommending treatment. Our priority is always to relieve discomfort, stop further damage, and preserve your natural tooth whenever possible.
Emergency Dental Crowns
When a tooth is cracked, broken, or severely weakened, an emergency crown may be used to restore strength, function, and appearance. Crowns protect the remaining tooth structure and help prevent further damage or infection. In many emergency situations, we can place a temporary or same-day crown so you can leave the office with a stable, protected tooth.
Emergency Root Canal Therapy
Severe tooth pain is often caused by infection or inflammation inside the tooth. Emergency root canal therapy removes the infected tissue, relieves pain, and saves the natural tooth. This procedure stops the spread of infection and allows the tooth to remain functional, often avoiding the need for extraction. Modern techniques make emergency root canal treatment far more comfortable than most patients expect.
Emergency Dental Implants
If a tooth cannot be saved due to trauma or advanced infection, an emergency dental implant may be recommended. Dental implants replace both the root and visible portion of the tooth, restoring function, stability, and appearance. In some cases, implant placement can begin the same day the damaged tooth is removed, helping prevent bone loss and reducing overall treatment time.
Treatment for Lost Fillings or Broken Restorations
Lost fillings or broken dental work can expose sensitive areas of the tooth, causing pain and increasing the risk of further damage. Emergency treatment may include replacing the filling, placing a protective restoration, or stabilizing the tooth until a permanent solution can be completed.
Care for Chipped or Broken Teeth
Chipped or broken teeth can often be repaired quickly with bonding, smoothing, or protective restorations. Prompt treatment helps restore your smile and prevents the damage from worsening.
