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 am very happy with the root canal. I have been trying for two years to find a dentist of excellence and I had not found one until I came to Greater Endodontic, I have been to several clinics and I have always left with the anguish and the feeling of being an object that can be taken money with a dental treatment and ...

— Mary Anne Linford, Posted April 3rd 2025 on google
Fantastic staff, great service and ability to be seen urgently on Friday. Thank you!
— talla e., Posted April 3rd 2025 on google
There are two things that stand out to me about my experience with Dr. Casper. The first is that he overcommunicated, which I love. I knew everything he was doing before he did it. That makes what is usually a very anxiety inducing scenario, very comfortable to me! Second, he was so considerate. He was constantly aski...

Amazing office, staff, and doctors! Was able to schedule my appointment and be seen in less than 2 weeks. When my appointment arrived I was nervous about the procedure (no one likes their teeth to be worked on). Kelly was the assistant and she was super friendly and really calming. She listened and when I needed more g...

Was referred, as my dentist was booked and going on vacay. Fast turnaround on a root canal. I was in some bad pain and 24 hours later the pain was gone. The paper shuffle prior was a bit intense and took a while to get through it. However, it’s understandable as I was a walk in.
— Chris Van Buskirk, Posted March 31st 2025 on google
Great doctor and staff. Know their stuff and are kind doing it. If your dream is getting a root canal, this is the place for you.
— Gary Arndt, Posted March 30th 2025 on google
It was awesome. I’m an older woman and I appreciate when both of the team let me know what I needed to expect. The time spent was reasonable.
— kaye baldwin, Posted March 29th 2025 on google
I was extremely pleased with the service and care. No one wants a root canal, but Dr. Larsen made it painless and easy. A million thank yous!
— Janna Richens, Posted March 29th 2025 on google
Great staff and service. If you have dental anxiety I recommend their services as the staff were very compassionate and fun. Also, I had laughing gas during my root canal which helped my anxiety so much!
— Lindsay Rasmussen, Posted March 28th 2025 on google
The office staff were very efficient and attentive to my needs. I appreciated doctor Casper and his assistant explaining what was taking place during my procedure. I felt relaxed and confident in his ability of my treatment. Thank you Greater Endodontics for a wonderful experience.

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.
