Traumatic Dental Injuries in Kirkland, WA

of Traumatic injuries to your teeth, the soft tissues of your mouth (tongue, gums, and lips), or jawbone can be caused by a direct strike to the mouth. Oral injuries can occur while playing sports, during a car collision, falls or in everyday mishaps. Treatments for an oral injury will change based on your specific case. Even if your injury doesn't seem serious or you are not in pain, Kirkland, WA patients should seek out immediate help from our dental professionals to evaluate and diagnose the trauma and protect against further damage and illness. This is particularly  true in cases knocked out teeth. The priority should be finding all the pieces of the tooth and either re-inserting into its original position or putting them in milk or water until the patient can see the endodontist for evaluation and repair. 

At Prime Endodontics in Kirkland, WA, our endodontics team performs numerous procedures to correct dental and oral issues that occur as a result of trauma. Contact our practice immediately after a traumatic oral injury to schedule an appointment.

The number of procedures that might be necessary to care for your traumatic injury will be based on the severity. Our team will assess your trauma and may take different types of imaging to better understand the magnitude of the trauma. We will then explain your condition and discuss your treatment options. In some cases, surgical intervention could be required, especially for a significant injury to your jawbone. Other cases may only involve an in-office treatment with a local anesthetic. Several procedures may have to be combined to fully heal the injury. These treatments will be spaced out to permit time for healing.

Traumatic dental injuries often require prompt and effective treatment to prevent long-term damage and ensure the best possible outcome. These treatments not only address immediate concerns, such as pain and aesthetics, but they also play a critical role in preserving oral health and function. These treatments can help patients and their families appreciate the importance of seeking professional care immediately following a dental trauma and offer several key benefits:

  • Prevention of infection
  • Aesthetic restoration
  • Pain management
