tooth pushed into the gum

[Alex10]

Hello

Last week my son who is 18 years old, bit into a raw piece of veg and pushed his tooth into the gum. He does not have a dentist as we have recently moved to this area from the north. Now he is in a lot of pain, cant sleep, cant go to work and painkillers do not help at all. Can you give us advice please?

What happened to your son is probably one of the teeth that already had a decay broke when he bit into that raw piece of veg and now the trauma affects either the pulp of the tooth or the gums around the tooth.

We have very experienced emergency dentists at our clinic and such an extraction can be carried out on the same day of presentation or soon afterwards. You can call our reception teem at 0208 547 9997 and book an appointment now.
