LightHouse Dental Is Now Educating The Public On How To Effectively Deal With Dental Emergencies

Summary: LightHouse Dentist has been offering quality dental care for Ontario residents for many years. The clinic is now taking part in public education efforts to help people deal with dental emergencies.

Kingston, Ontario – LightHouse Dental is a premier provider of dental care in Kingston, Ontario. Offering routine dental checkups and specialty dental procedures, the clinic also offers around the clock emergency dental services for Kingston and surrounding areas. The clinic is highly passionate about educating the local residents on how they can effectively deal with a dental emergency, in order to prevent things from getting worse before help can be accessed. With existing locations in Cobourg and Chatham, the Kingston clinic is the latest location for LightHouse Dental, and it is playing a pivotal role in helping the LightHouse team offer their comprehensive dental care services to an even larger patient demographic.

A representative for LightHouse Dental made an official statement to the press, "Here at LightHouse Dental, our team works proactively to provide high quality and personable dental care and support to several localities in Ontario. With a new clinic location in Kingston, we are now leveraging the power of social media and our website to offer educational posts and articles. This can help people effectively deal with dental emergencies, before they can get to us. This knowledge and information can be vital in preventing major dental injuries and we believe offering this important information for free is our service to the local community."

Some of the ways people can deal with common dental emergencies are listed below:

Filling Damage/Loss

In case of a filling being lost or damaged, protecting the exposed area is of utmost importance. Experts at LightHouse Dental suggest putting a piece of sugar-free gum in the exposed area, till dental help can be reached.

Lip/Tongue Bites

This does not require urgent dental care. If the tongue or the lips are bleeding, use a clean cloth to blot till bleeding stops. Use an ice pack for any kind of lip swelling. Go to the ER if the bleeding doesn't stop.

Chipped/Broken Tooth

At LightHouse Dental, the team of experts is capable of handling broken/chipped tooth cases of any severity. Patients are urged to contact the clinic immediately so a solution can be devised in a timely manner. Broken teeth can be fixed with filling. Root canal may be needed in serious cases.

Tooth Knocked-Out

In most urgent cases, the team at LightHouse will be able to put the tooth back. It is advised to secure the tooth and arrive at the clinic within 10-15 minutes. Longer waiting periods may reduce the chance of a knocked out tooth taking its root back.
