Are you experiencing dental pain that is keeping you awake at night? This could be a sign of an infected dental pulp that may require root canal treatment.
A root canal is an alternative to extraction,that allows your dentist to resolve your pain, whilst preserving your natural tooth and removing the infected tissue.
Holistic dentistry is an overall view of your dental health that incorporates many other health and lifestyle factors, such as diet.
Holistic treatment often involves trying to preserve your tooth’s natural characteristics and function and uses biomimetic principles.
A general dentist can help assess and treat any issues with your oral health, and if required, coordinate a treatment plan that involves dental specialists or associated health professionals. “While a general dentist can perform the majority of dental work that their patients require, in some cases treatment outcomes may improve with a specialist referral. For example, a tooth that is difficult to extract and is located near an important nerve may be referred to an oral surgeon who has expertise in this area,” says Dr David Ashton.
During the referral process, the role of your general dentist is to manage your overall treatment plan and to ensure that you are provided with a consistently high level of care. You can learn more about referrals from a general dentist in the video at the top of the page.
A sore tooth or gums can be caused by a wide range of dental issues, and it is important to talk to your dentist about any oral discomfort you may be experiencing – particularly if the pain increases, or keeps you awake at night.
Some causes of tooth pain may be benign, such as soreness around the base of the teeth during a cold or sinus infection. However, tooth pain may also be symptomatic of a serious condition, for example, an acute infection in the root requiring immediate care.
A dental consultation will allow your dentist to investigate the source of the discomfort and suggest potential treatments or strategies that alleviate the symptoms. In a dental emergency, such as serious injury or trauma, your dentist may need to schedule you for an emergency appointment.
We often see patients who are experiencing problems with dental anxiety, a dental phobia or feel uncomfortable during their dental visits.
The reasons for dental anxiety are often related to previous memories and experiences, such as sensory perceptions of a dental or medical appointment that didn’t go well, or an uncomfortable experience in the dental chair, our staff are able to support and alleviate any anxiety by explaining all procedures to our clients.
These can create powerful subconscious responses that can have long-lasting impacts on your ability to access appropriate care. Over time, this may mean that your dental issues go undetected or untreated.
Your dentist can suggest and help facilitate any strategies you may need to overcome these issues.
