Personal Injury Dentistry in Henderson, NV

What Is Personal Injury Dentistry?

Personal injury dentistry is dental care for damage caused by an accident rather than by decay. That includes car and motorcycle crashes, slips and falls, work injuries, and sports collisions. The treatment itself is familiar dentistry, from bonding and crowns to root canals and implants. What makes it different is timing and documentation. Injuries need to be found early and written down clearly, because someone else may be responsible for paying for them.

Most people see a doctor after a crash. Far fewer see a dentist. That is a problem, because cracked enamel, a bruised root, or a strained jaw joint can stay quiet for weeks and then turn into pain, infection, or a tooth that has to come out. The sooner you are examined, the easier the fix and the clearer the link between your injury and the accident that caused it.

Dental Injuries We Treat

We do everything from TMJ pain to dental implants, all in one Henderson office. The most common injuries we see after an accident:

• Chipped, cracked, or broken teeth, repaired with bonding, crowns, or veneers
• Knocked-out or pushed-in teeth, which need to be seen the same day
• Loose or shifted teeth and damaged roots, often treated with splinting or a root canal
• Jaw pain, clicking, and TMJ symptoms from the impact or from clenching afterward
• Broken crowns, fillings, and dentures, plus cuts to the lips, gums, and cheeks

If a tooth has been knocked out, hold it by the crown and not the root, rinse it gently, and place it back in the socket if you can. If you cannot, keep it in milk and call us right away at (702) 212-6641. The first hour gives that tooth its best chance.

What Your Injury Visit Looks Like

Step One: Exam and Imaging

Tell us what happened. Dr. Sidhu examines every tooth, your gums, your bite, and your jaw joint, then takes digital X-rays and full mouth scans. Those images catch cracks and root damage you cannot see in a mirror, and they fix the condition of your mouth to a date.

Step Two: Relief First, Then the Plan

Pain and unstable teeth come first. From there you get a written plan in plain English: what is damaged, what it takes to fix it, and the order to do it in. Nobody is pushed into treatment, and you will know the cost before anything starts.

Step Three: Treatment and Follow-Up

We restore what was damaged, whether that means bonding, a crown, a root canal, an implant, or a night guard for jaw strain. Because some injuries surface later, we check the injured teeth again at your follow-up visits rather than assuming the first exam caught everything.

Working With Your Personal Injury Attorney

We work closely with your attorney's office. Bring their name and number to your visit, and with your written permission we send over the exam notes, X-rays, photos, and treatment plan they ask for. If you are an attorney with a client who has dental injuries, call us at (702) 212-6641 and we will get them seen quickly and keep your office in the loop.

Personal Injury Dentistry for Henderson and the Las Vegas Valley

Accident injuries rarely stay in one lane. A cracked front tooth may need a root canal, then a crown, then a veneer beside it to match. Densley Dental has handled all of it under one roof on S. Pecos Road since 1991, so you are not driving to three offices and repeating your story. We see patients from Henderson, Green Valley, Anthem, Seven Hills, and across the Las Vegas valley. We accept most major insurance, and our team explains your payment options before treatment begins.
