Dental Emergencies Q&A

Dental emergencies are urgent oral health problems that require immediate attention but are not typically life-threatening. Issues like intense tooth pain, lost fillings, broken restorations, or knocked-out teeth can’t be ignored. Prompt treatment at Maple Dental NJ can help relieve discomfort, prevent complications, and restore your smile.

Some of the most common dental emergencies we treat include:

  • Severe or sudden toothaches

  • Cracked or chipped teeth

  • Knocked-out (avulsed) permanent teeth

  • Lost crowns or fillings

  • Damaged braces or orthodontics

  • Broken or loose restorations

  • Food or objects stuck between teeth

  • Oral abscesses or swelling

  • Cuts or lacerations to the lips, cheeks, or tongue

Dental injuries caused by sports, falls, or accidents should be addressed immediately. If you're in Belleville, Maplewood, or nearby areas, and need a dentist near you, Maple Dental NJ is here to help—walk in or call us right away.

While you can’t always avoid accidents, there are several steps you can take to reduce your risk of a dental emergency:

  • Wear a mouthguard during contact sports to protect your teeth from impact.

  • Chew smart. Avoid chewing on ice, hard candies, or tough foods that can break teeth.

  • Break bad habits. Don’t use your teeth to open bottles or bite your nails—this can lead to chips and cracks.

  • Maintain good oral hygiene. Brush and floss daily, and visit Maple Dental NJ twice a year for cleanings and exams.

  • Use caution with objects in your mouth. Avoid chewing on pen caps, pencils, or other non-food items.

Even with the best care, dental emergencies can still happen. When they do, trust the caring professionals at Maple Dental NJ—your emergency dentist near you in Belleville, Maplewood, and surrounding communities.

Dental implant treatment is typically completed over several visits across a few months. Here’s what to expect at Maple Dental NJ:

First Visit - Implant Placement
Once you're cleared for implants, we numb the area with a local anesthetic and insert titanium posts into your jawbone. You’ll receive aftercare instructions along with medications if needed.

Healing Period - 12 to 16 Weeks
During this time, the implants fuse with your jawbone to form a strong foundation.

Second Visit - Digital Impressions
After the healing phase, we take 3D digital impressions of your mouth to design custom restorations—like crowns, bridges, or overdentures—that fit perfectly.

Final Visit - Restoration Placement
When your new teeth are ready, we bond them to the implants and polish them. The process is quick and requires no downtime—you’ll walk out with a fully restored smile.
