Our team is dedicated to providing propmt, compassionate care to help alleviate pain, address urgent issues, and restore your oral health.
Common Dental Emergencies
Severe Toothache: Persistent or severe tooth pain could indicate an underlying issue such as decay or infection. We provide quick relief and treatment to address the cause of your pain.
Broken or Chipped Teeth: Accidents or injuries can cause teeth to break or chip. We offer same-day repairs and solutions to restore the appearance and function of your teeth.
Knocked-Out Tooth: If a tooth is knocked out, it’s crucial to seek immediate care. We can often save the tooth if you bring it to us quickly and follow proper care instructions.
Loose or Dislodged Teeth: Trauma or other factors can cause teeth to become loose. We’ll evaluate and provide treatment to stabilize and save your tooth.
Lost Dental Restoration: If you lose a crown, filling, or other dental restoration, contact us immediately. We can provide a temporary solution and arrange for a replacement.
Soft Tissue Injuries: Cuts, lacerations, or injuries to the gums, lips, or tongue need prompt attention. We’ll provide care to reduce bleeding, prevent infection, and aid in healing.
What to Do in a Dental Emergency
Toothache: Rinse your mouth with warm water and use dental floss to remove any debris. Avoid placing aspirin on the tooth or gums. Contact us for an evaluation and treatment.
Broken or Chipped Teeth: Save any broken pieces and rinse your mouth with warm water. Apply a cold compress to reduce swelling and contact us immediately.
Knocked-Out Tooth: Handle the tooth by the crown (not the root) and rinse it gently if dirty. Place it in a container with milk or saline, and seek emergency care right away.
Loose Teeth: Avoid touching or wiggling the tooth. Contact us immediately to assess and stabilize the tooth.
Lost Restoration: Keep the restoration safe and clean. Contact us to schedule a repair or replacement as soon as possible.
