Our office knows that dental emergencies can be both stressful and inconvenient. That is why we offer dedicated emergency dental care to address urgent dental issues quickly and effectively. Dental emergencies can range from painful conditions to injuries that threaten the health and functionality of your teeth and gums. If you are experiencing a dental emergency, we encourage you to contact us immediately for prompt care.

Common dental emergencies include:

  • Knocked-out teeth: Immediate action can sometimes save a tooth. Keep the tooth moist and bring it to your appointment as quickly as possible.
  • Chipped or broken teeth: These injuries can expose sensitive inner layers of the tooth, increasing the risk of infection.
  • Severe tooth pain: Persistent or intense toothaches may indicate serious underlying problems such as an abscess or deep decay.
  • Lost or damaged restorations: Missing fillings, crowns, or other dental work can leave your teeth vulnerable and uncomfortable.
  • Injuries to the soft tissues: Cuts or damage to your gums, lips, tongue, or inner cheeks may require professional care to control bleeding and prevent infection.

If you are experiencing any of these situations, please call our office as soon as possible. Our dentists and team will guide you on the next steps, including how to protect your smile until you can visit us. We prioritize emergency cases to provide you with timely relief and care.

In more severe cases, such as significant trauma to your head, neck or jaw, please seek immediate medical attention at an emergency room or with your primary physician. Your overall health and safety are our top concerns, and some injuries may require advanced medical intervention before addressing dental concerns.

We are here to support you during dental emergencies, providing effective care in a compassionate and professional environment. For more information or to schedule an emergency visit, contact our office today. Let us help you restore your smile and comfort when you need it most.

FAQ

A dental emergency typically involves situations that require immediate attention to alleviate pain, prevent infection or save a tooth. This includes severe toothaches, broken teeth, knocked-out teeth and injuries to the gums or other soft tissues. If you are unsure, call our office, and we can help determine the urgency.

What qualifies as a dental emergency?
You should see a dentist as soon as possible for a dental emergency. Prompt care can prevent complications and increase the likelihood of effective treatment. Call our office immediately to discuss your situation, and we will schedule you for the earliest available appointment to address your needs.

How soon should I see a dentist for an emergency?
If your tooth is knocked out, handle it carefully by the crown, avoiding the root. Rinse it gently with water if dirty and try to place it back in the socket. If that is not possible, keep it moist in milk or a dental preservation kit and contact us immediately.

What should I do if my tooth gets knocked out?
While professional care is crucial, you can take steps at home to manage discomfort and protect your teeth. Rinse with warm saltwater, use a cold compress to reduce swelling, and take over-the-counter pain relievers if needed. Avoid hard foods and call our office for further guidance and treatment.
