We know that heading out into the Aussie outdoors is a rush. You have a good breath of the world, and an adventure, and tales to relate. But you, too, enter into the misfortunes, and sometimes the misfortunes are of your teeth.
Enjoying mountain biking, hiking or kicking a footy about?
You might find yourself with a chipped tooth, a cracked tooth or that nagging emergency toothache that will never go away.
Any person who has experienced this, will understand that sense of panic and frustration, especially when the nearest dentist is one or a long ride away. What we aim to do here at Smile Concepts is to ensure that outdoor lovers such as you remain ready to ensure that dental problems will not ruin your adventure.Hence we decided to write this blog which discusses this issue.
Adventures in Australia are exciting but dental trauma is not that uncommon as many people tend to believe. According to research, approximately 15.5% of young athletes and regular outdoor explorers have experienced dental injuries, with chipped and cracked teeth leading the pack. It is a large figure, and in the case of adults, the numbers continue to increase as they tend to perform more extreme activities.Now let’s talk about the common culprits:
So what’s next? It is mainly imperative to remain calm and make temporary solutions until you can visit a dentist.
Above all, visit your dentist at the earliest opportunity by calling him/her and receiving prompt advice or book an emergency appointment. A lot of good Australian dentists are equipped with emergency tooth ache relief procedures, and can help you if you find one nearby.
Pack a lightweight dental first aid kit for trips, schedule a check-up before long journeys, and if you’re doing extreme activities, ask your dentist about a custom mouthguard. Spending a bit of time planning now can save you from a lot of trouble later.
You need not be afraid of dental injury to stay indoors. Regular dentist visits before your next major trip can ensure that any bad spots are identified or any older fillings that may crack.
The thing is that with the help of a simple first aid kit, including gauze, dental wax, and pain relievers, you are prepared for nearly anything, both bushwalking and surfing. When you are fond of contact games or extreme activities, the use of a mouthguard may save your teeth.
Pass your knowledge to your family and friends, and everyone will be prepared and sure when visiting the Aussie outdoors.
Your outdoor activities will be something to remember, but not because of tooth trauma. These first aid measures and some intelligent planning will leave you prepared regardless of the situation that will occur.
However, remember that the solutions mentioned above are just temporary measures to get you through your holiday or outdoor activity. Once you get back from your adventure, booking an appointment with Smile Concepts should be your priority to ensure your dental issues are fixed permanently.
Left unattended, even minor chipped tooth or cracked tooth problems can worsen and lead to serious complications. We’re here to provide professional care and lasting solutions so you can get back to enjoying life without worry.
