What to Do If You Have a Dental Emergency

Contact Our Office Immediately

Don’t wait if you’re experiencing severe pain, injury, or swelling. Call us right away so we can provide guidance and arrange prompt care.

Save Any Broken Tooth Pieces

If part of your tooth has broken off, keep the fragments in a clean container and bring them with you. Sometimes these pieces can be reattached or used to aid treatment.

Rinse Your Mouth Gently

Use warm water to rinse your mouth carefully. This helps remove debris and keeps the area clean without causing irritation.

Apply a Cold Compress

Place a cold compress or ice pack on the outside of your cheek near the affected area. This can reduce swelling and help ease pain until you get professional care.

Common Dental Emergencies We Treat

Severe Tooth Pain or Swelling

Persistent or intense tooth pain and swelling can signal infection or other serious issues. We act quickly to identify the cause and provide relief.

Knocked-Out, Loose, or Broken Teeth

Accidents happen. Whether a tooth is completely knocked out, loosened, or fractured, prompt care can often save the tooth or prevent further damage.

Cracked or Fractured Teeth

Cracks can cause pain and increase the risk of infection. We assess the extent of damage and recommend the best treatment to restore your tooth.

Lost Fillings or Crowns

If a filling or crown falls out, it can expose your tooth to sensitivity and decay. We provide timely repairs to protect your smile.

Dental Abscesses and Infections

Infections can cause swelling, pain, and serious health risks if untreated. We offer immediate treatment to control infection and start healing.
