Traumatic Endodontic Injuries
We believe it is essential to inform our patients about the types of traumatic injuries that frequently necessitate endodontic treatment. Dental injuries may not be life-threatening, but they can be exceedingly painful and have a significant impact on your daily life. We are able to perform the appropriate endodontic treatments for your injury, thereby safeguarding your oral health and assisting you in maintaining an attractive, healthy smile.
Cracked Tooth
Despite the fact that tooth enamel is the hardest substance in the human body, our teeth are susceptible to cracking due to years of wear and tear and trauma. Identifying cracks and fractures is not always simple. In fact, it is extremely common for this type of injury to be invisible on an X-ray. Cracked teeth do not always hurt, despite the fact that it is common for patients to experience increased sensitivity and discomfort when chewing. Only if the fracture disturbs the pulp within the tooth will there be pain. Following a root canal procedure, fractured teeth may be restored via restoration or a crown.
Loosened Teeth
Your tooth may be moved inward, outward, or to the side following an injury. It is imperative that you contact your general dentist immediately in such situations. Immediate repositioning of the tooth will be necessary. If the dentin of the tooth has been severely damaged, your dentist may refer you to our office for a root canal.
Treatment with Fixed Clear Braces
A tooth that has been wholly expelled from its socket is avulsed. It is imperative that you consult a dentist immediately in order to save the tooth, as the chances of saving it diminish with each passing hour. Once the tooth has been dislodged, be sure to retrieve it by retaining only the crown and not the root. Rinse the tooth, but do not clean it excessively or manipulate it more than required. Reinsert the tooth into its socket and secure it with gauze or linen. If the tooth cannot be reinserted, store it in milk until you reach the dentist. The dentist will then reinsert the tooth, and endodontic treatment will be necessary within 1 to 2 weeks.
Apexogeny, Apexification, and Resorption
Our endodontist is also able to identify and treat a variety of traumas affecting both embryonic and mature teeth. Apexogenesis is typically performed on children whose pulp tissue has been damaged or infected, and whose root canal has not fully developed. Apexification is the process of generating a calcified barrier at the apex of a non-viable tooth with incomplete root formation. In cases of resorption, or when body cells attack and demolish portions of the tooth, the tissue invading the root must be removed and chemical treatment administered to prevent recurrence.

Reviews
It is my 3rd time going to see Laura, first time Laura was so helpful, I was very nervous and worried, have had a lot of work done she always reassured me, I'm so glad I listened to her !, I have beautiful teeth and I could not be happier I didn't think it was possible to have a lovely smile ? still continuing with her, she is so lovely and caring and professional, also Sarah too and rest of girls. Thanks so much.
Dr. Laura Fee and the entire team are amazing, so friendly throughout and really reassuring! I recently had a wisdom tooth extraction under sedation and didn’t feel a thing. Everything was explained very clearly and I felt totally comfortable - would recommend this dental practice to anyone, they really do go above and beyond!
After a number of years away from the dentist I bit the bullet and went and so happy I did, Dr. Laura and her team made me feel so relaxed and they provided top-quality service. I didn't even realize the job had been done and to top it off best prices around highly recommended
Visited the clinic myself for the first time today along with my son who was having his first visit to the dentist too. We had a really great experience, Dr. Fee and all of the staff were so friendly, it was a really positive experience! My son even said he had a brilliant time, so that speaks for itself! I would highly recommend the clinic and delighted to have this service in the community!
I don't normally leave reviews but wanted to say thanks so much to Dr Laura for her great work this weekend. I'm quite a nervous patient but she had me completely at ease for my treatment this morning. Also highly recommend for children - her and the nurses were fantastic with my son and his teddy Justin Beaver! They went above and beyond in making sure he had a great experience! he's now so excited for his next six month check and I'm thrilled he won't be growing up with a fear of the dentist! Thanks again!
I couldn't recommend Dr Laura Fee & the Smile Hub Dental Clinic enough. Top class service from someone that previously had a fear of the dentist 🤜 🤛
Couldn’t recommend Dr Laura enough, amazing work done throughout the clear braces process and couldn’t be happier with the results.
My daughter had an accident late at night. When I phoned that night they were able to get her in at 07.30 the next morning. All friendly and helpful staff. Very happy with the dental work care carried out. Would highly recommend.
The team were fantastic. They saw me on Paddys Day for an emergency. Life savers and so friendly. My dentist was incredible. Thank you all!
