Most people have a medical first aid kit at home, but very
few have a dental first aid kit in case a dental emergency occurs. Dental emergencies can be an alarming and painful situation. Here are some items worth collecting
to create a dental first aid kit:
Latex (or latex-free) medical exam gloves – Now you can
touch without contaminating.
Dental mirror – This aids in visualizing areas difficult to
see.
Floss and toothpicks – Sometimes severe pain can be caused
simply by food becoming stuck along the gums or between teeth.
Gauze and a Tea bag – Use this with applied pressure to any
lacerations to help stop bleeding.
Placing a damp tea bag on the area will also help stop bleeding.
Wax – Braces and broken teeth can be very sharp and irritate
the gums. Place wax over the sharp
areas for relief.
Temporary filling material – If a filling breaks out or
there is a hole in a tooth, a temporary filling material can be placed. Most contain eugenol which helps soothe the
nerve of the tooth in case of a toothache or sensitivity.
Temporary cement – This is used to glue a crown back on.
Save-A-Tooth kit – This is a “tooth-friendly” solution to
store a tooth that has been knocked out, while you make your way to the
dentist. It greatly increases the
chances of a tooth being saved. SaveATooth.com
Oral anesthetic gel – There are many brands out there such as Orajel and Orabase. Do not use on young
children, as there is a risk for methemoglobinemia, a potentially serious blood
complication. It can be used safely on
older children and adults.
Quantum Canker Covers – This is a patch that forms a barrier
over a canker sore (mouth ulcer). It
soothes the area and promotes much quicker healing. Quantum Canker Covers
Most of these items can be purchased at your local drug
store. If you cannot find them there,
they are all available on-line.
With any dental emergency, be sure to contact your dentist.
