Tooth Pain After a Car Accident
Riverton


Car accidents can cause severe trauma to your body. There are many urgent needs to attend to in the immediate aftermath of a car accident, but don’t overlook the importance of dental care after an accident. While some injuries may more obviously require dental attention, not all kinds of dental trauma after an accident are visible.

If you have been in a car accident where airbags deployed, you hit your face against another object (including the steering wheel, dashboard, or the seat in front of you), or you suffered from severe whiplash, you may also have injured your mouth. The sooner you receive treatment, the more likely you will be able to keep all of your teeth and be pain–free. If you’re experiencing tooth pain after a car accident in Riverton–it’s time to meet with one of the dentists of Greater Endodontics.

I had a good experience. Dr Larson was thorough and kind. However there was so much small talk between the assistant and Dr. Larson and constant singing if they weren’t talking. When you are unable to talk during a procedure and you maybe want to just listen to the music playing, it’s pretty impossible and annoying...

Dr. Larsen got me on his schedule for my root canal the next day. He was so friendly and kind. I appreciated his thorough work. He made sure he did it right. I felt no pain. Thank you Dr. Larsen!

I just had my third root canal done by Dr. Brimley, and I will not go to anyone else. I had one where I went to a dentist, a file was left in the root, and I ended up needing to get that tooth pulled. Never again! Like another review said, when he numbs you, you can’t even feel it! I felt so at ease the entire proced...

Thorough yet still pretty fast. Patient and willing to explain everything, answering every question fully. I had to have a second root canal on the same tooth after my former dentist did a poor job, missing a side canal. I'll always go here, to the experts, for a root canal!

Thoughtful team. Very pleasant experience. No-pain root canal. Dr is an expert and very professional.

I had a very positive experience with Greater Endodontics. On my first consultation, I was greeted warmly by all of the staff. I felt important and valued. At the end of the appointment, the office staff explained the procedure that they recommended and gave me a quote. The next week I scheduled a root canal retreatmen...

Fabulous experience. This is my third time there and every time has been very professional, easy, and the work on my teeth was painless and flawless. I wouldn’t go anywhere else to get a root canal. dr. Brimley is a true artisan.
— Sharon Eastman, Posted June 29th 2024 on google
Nobody likes to go to the “dentist” or orthodontist or Endodontist but this place was great! The worst part of it all was I didn’t fall asleep! No pain, doc kept me informed the whole (2hours) way…as relaxing as possible and the music was nice! Thanks James Taylor!lolol😉

Types of Dental Trauma


In a car crash, it’s possible to injure your teeth and jaw directly or indirectly. A foreign object hitting your mouth or teeth can result in a direct injury. Indirect injuries often occur due to whiplash, which may force your teeth to crush together in an unnatural motion. Direct or indirect, dental trauma is categorized in three ways:

Luxated Tooth

A luxated tooth is still attached to the gum but is loose. A dentist can help you get the tooth back into place and ensure no additional damage has occurred to the tooth or the rest of your mouth.

Avulsed Tooth

An avulsed tooth has become completely dislodged from the gum. (knocked out) If you lose a tooth in an accident, you have a two–hour window to preserve your natural teeth after they are avulsed. Pick up the tooth by the crown (not the root) and immediately put the tooth in a container filled with saliva, saline solution, or whole milk. Get to a dentist as soon as possible to preserve your natural tooth or teeth.

Fractured Tooth

A fractured tooth is when part of the tooth breaks, but the lower part of the tooth is still attached to the gum. Teeth can fracture in several ways. Treatment for a fractured tooth depends on the kind of fracture:

  • Ellis I fracture: This kind of fracture doesn't extend beyond the tooth's enamel. Your teeth may have some rough edges but are likely not tender. Your tooth will not have changed color.
  • Ellis II fracture: This kind of fracture is more painful as it goes past the tooth enamel and into the dentin layer of your tooth. As a result, your tooth is likely sensitive to touch and exposure to air.
  • Ellis III fracture: This is the most extreme type of fracture. In this case, the fracture impacts the enamel, the dentin, and the pulp layer of your tooth. Your tooth will be sensitive to touch and air and will likely require a root canal to repair it fully.

If you experience tooth pain after a car accident, see the dental experts of Greater Endodontics in Riverton as soon as possible. We can give you peace of mind that your teeth and jaw are still healthy.

Tooth and Jaw Pain After a Car Accident
Riverton


You should visit a dentist if you are experiencing tooth or jaw pain, even without any visible teeth injuries. Tooth pain can manifest in several ways. It may be concentrated in a specific tooth or an expanded area in your mouth, or it can extend into your gums or jaw. It may even cause headaches.

Jaw impairment injuries are common after a car crash. If you've experienced a head injury, you're at greater risk for temporomandibular joint dysfunction, or TMJ. Signs of TMJ include pain in your jaw, difficulty chewing, or a clicking sound in your jaw joint. You may also experience earaches or vertigo. Since the jaw is located so close to the ear, a jaw injury can also affect your ear.

If you are experiencing jaw or tooth pain after a car accident, don't hesitate to contact a dentist specializing in dental trauma like the experts of Greater Endodontics in Riverton.
