Do I Need Emergency Dental Care?
Not sure if your situation is a true dental emergency? Here are some of the most common problems our emergency dentist treats—and what you can do right away:
Knocked-Out Tooth
Recover the tooth if possible and gently place it back in the socket. If that’s not an option, keep it in a cup of milk or saline solution. The sooner you see us, the better your chances of saving your natural tooth.
Broken or Chipped Tooth
Even a small chip can lead to infection if left untreated. Call our office immediately. While you wait, apply a cold compress to reduce swelling or take an over-the-counter pain reliever.
Severe Tooth Pain
Persistent or intense tooth pain often signals an urgent dental issue. Contact us right away so we can identify the cause and provide relief.
Bitten Tongue or Lip
Apply a cold compress to control swelling and bleeding. Call our office for guidance. If you think stitches may be needed, head directly to the ER.
Lost or Broken Dental Work
A missing filling, crown, or bridge leaves your tooth unprotected. Reach out to us as soon as possible so we can repair or replace the restoration.
