I have had quite a few  new patients comment that they were surprised to learn that we were available to treat people with dental emergencies.  I tell all my regular patients that I will always have somebody available to take care of emergencies.  I know that Muncie doesn’t have an advertised Emergency clinic, but MY patients know that they always have peace of mind when it comes to after hours troubles.  If I am in town I will take my own calls and if I am away I always have another dentist in Muncie that I will refer people to.  Just call the office number and the recording will give you the appropriate phone number.

 

What constitutes a Dental Emergency?  I think anything that is suddenly broken, painful, swollen, bleeding, etc.  The most common calls are for a toothache that is suddenly very painful or temperature sensitive as well as for trauma cases.  In the event that someone has had a tooth completely knocked out it is important that you keep the tooth warm and moist, and do NOT scrub it off no matter how dirty it seems to be.  Wrap it carefully in something like a wet paper towel and carry it in the palm of your hand making a fist around the tooth to keep it warm.  If we can see the patient shortly (less than an hour) after the accident we have been able to successfully re-implant the tooth  a large percentage of the time.  I have found that over my 30 year tenure people are very respectful of our time and do not call needlessly, so if you need us please don’t feel awkward about calling.  That’s why we’re here.

I have also included on this website a Dental Terms Glossary which can be found in the drop-down menu entitled “Patient Education” at the top of the screen.  I was delighted when my webmaster suggested including it as a part of the website.  Every workplace has their own jargon, and ours is no different.  This glossary should prove helpful in making sure we have clear communication between patients and our office.  It will also help you to understand the explanation of benefits from insurance companies and be able to communicate with them when necessary.  As always, we will be available during office hours to help with that as well.
