What Needs Emergency Orthodontic Care?
Orthodontics can be an unfamiliar experience for patients. If your braces or aligners appear or feel different, it’s not always easy to know if you require an immediate dental visit. When in doubt, we always recommend calling our team for guidance. We’ll be able to point you in the right direction so you don’t lose any progress in your treatment and continue in comfort.
Slight discomfort after first receiving your orthodontics or shortly after an adjustment visit is normal. Your teeth are adjusting to the new pressure on them, and this discomfort should go away on its own shortly. Orthodontic emergencies are most commonly the result of physical trauma, infection, oral bleeding, or severe pain to your teeth or gums. Brackets, wires, and bands may also become damaged or lost, requiring prompt attention. When an issue arises, our team at Woodlands Village Braces is on hand for the urgent care you need.
