If you’ve ever run into an issue where you needed to get in to see an Elgin dentist quickly, but you weren’t established in an office or your regular office was not available, you know how difficult the situation can be. Sometimes in our busy lives, it’s a challenge to keep up with routine dental appointments or dental emergencies require that we get seen as soon as possible. The good news is, regardless of the reason you need to see an Elgin dentist, it is possible to be seen quickly if you know a few tricks of the trade.
Emergency dentists, such as Dr. Sirin, not only see patients on an ongoing basis, but also leave time open on their schedules for unexpected issues. If you’re dealing with something unexpected, such as a toothache, swelling, or a broken tooth, these open slots are set aside for situations like yours, so you can get in on the same day you call. Be prepared to explain what symptoms you’re having and try to be flexible with your times because availability will be limited to a few spaces.
Newer technology, such as CEREC or E-4D machines, allow you to have a crown placed in a single visit. If you’re dealing with a situation where you’ve got limited time and need as much done as possible in one visit, look for offices with tech like this. Other things, such as digital x-rays, can provide diagnostic results quicker as well.
When you’re in pain or in a hurry, it can be tempting to jump in with the first office that will take you. However, not all offices provide the same level of care, so it’s important to check out patient testimonials on Google and Yelp before you book an appointment to ensure you have the best experience possible.
Toothaches and infections tend to get worse over time, and, although rare, infections can literally turn deadly. Moreover, even routine care, such as cleanings, have an impact on your overall health, and the longer you delay an appointment, the less likely you will be to follow up at all. Book an appointment now while you’re thinking about it and lock in your next visit while you’re in the office, so it’s easier to stay on track.
