Nouzová zubní péče: co dělat, když se zub rozbije nebo bolí

When you suddenly feel sharp pain in your tooth or notice a broken piece, you’re facing nouzová zubní péče, okamžitá reakce na nečekaný zubní problém, který vyžaduje rychlé a správné opatření.

If your gum is swollen and pus is oozing, bacteria are spreading. rozbitý zub, dokonce i malý štěrbinový zlom, může vést k dalšímu poškození, když se do něj zasahuje jídlem nebo zubním kartáčkem isn’t just an aesthetic issue—it’s a gateway for infection. And if you’ve had a zubní úraz, například dopad při sportu nebo pád, který způsobil ztrátu zubu nebo jeho posunutí, timing matters. The sooner you act, the higher the chance of saving the tooth.

What should you do right now? If a tooth breaks, save the piece. Rinse it gently with water—don’t scrub it.

Avoid putting aspirin directly on the gum—it burns tissue. Painkillers help temporarily, but they don’t fix the cause. And no, chewing gum or cotton wool won’t replace a proper filling or crown.
