The best way to reduce the chances of a dental emergency is to be proactive and be careful when engaging in activities that pose a high risk to your teeth and/or gums. For example, if you are involved in sports, getting a mouth guard is essential. Also, be careful when eating hard foods that can cause cracked teeth.
Getting regular checkups at our Bloor dental clinic is also an effective way of preventing dental emergencies. Our trained Toronto dentists will check for signs of decay or infection, two factors that can significantly compromise your oral health and lead to dental emergencies.
