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.

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!

Very pleasant people, receptionist called me by name when I walked in for second visit. Dr Larson was very thorough and told me everything that was happening

Dr. Brimley performed quality work when redoing a root canal (done by another endodontist) that had gotten infected. He is very meticulous about cleaning the root area, disinfecting it, and sealing it. I hope this root canal will last - time will tell. He also has very friendly office staff and competent assistants.

I had a root canal on a back molar. I came in having pain in another tooth. I was impressed that Dr. Casper could find the exact tooth causing the pain. I felt very confident in Dr. Casper. He included me in the details of the procedure. No pain during the procedure. It was very reassuring. Evelyn, his assistant, was ...

Dr. Rhett Casper is amazing. He found what no other dentist has found. They missed one of the roots when they did a root canal procedure. That saved me 5k in implant and bone graph procedures. Definitely worth me getting a second opinion here.
— Brian Thomas, Posted March 21st 2025 on google
Had a root canal procedure done yesterday by Dr Brimley. It was so slick and easy. I appreciated his humming, knowing he was relaxed and comfortable. He put the shot in so slow I didn’t feel anything. I’ll definitely be referring people to him. The rest of the office was also so nice and made sure I was comfortable...

I was treated very well, made comfortable in an uncomfortable situation. Everyone was kind and professional. I was scheduled for a later date but got on the cancellation list and was able to get the procedure done a week early. Dr. Brinkley knows his stuff!!! Thank you for making this difficult time much more enjoya...

I saw Dr. Larsen for a surgical procedure. He was so awesome! After the numbing I didn’t feel a thing. I can’t wait to see the end result. Big, big + is the infection will finally clear up. Thank you Dr. Larsen! See you Monday for stitches removal.
— Jodie Wines, Posted March 12th 2025 on google
Dr. Casper was absolutely amazing!
— Emina, Posted March 9th 2025 on google
First root canal. It's never a pleasant experience when someone has hands and sharp tools in your mouth. I have to say, this was the best dental experience I have ever had. They made it as painless and stress-free as possible.
— Russ Fellows, Posted March 9th 2025 on google
Hands down the best in town! Great attention to detail and you can count on getting an A+ experience and expertise. Thank you!

— Henry Rudolph, Posted February 27th 2025 on google
I have had three root canals done here by Doctor Casper. Their financial people explained the bill with transparency. Each experience was quick and efficient, and Doctor Casper answered my questions with compassion. Can't recommend this place enough.
— Paden Carter, Posted February 27th 2025 on google
Exemplary! That is an understatement! I have never, in my long life had a better major Dental experience ever! Thank You to Doctor Brimley and staff!

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.
