Because lots of dental emergencies can be a result of accidents or injury, it’s always a good idea to wear adequate protection during sports, such as a helmet or mouth guard. Regular dental appointments can also help – our dentists here in London could identify and treat an infection in its early stages, or if you have a chipped or cracked tooth, we could repair it before it becomes a problem. Loose crowns and fillings can also cause issues down the line, and with frequent dental check-ups, we can keep an eye on these and replace them as and when required to avoid emergency dental care.
