Fast Relief When You Need It Most
A dental emergency rarely happens at a convenient time. Whether it's a sudden toothache that won't let up, a knocked-out tooth from an accident, or an infection that's causing swelling and pain, waiting days for an appointment isn't an option. From knocked-out teeth to painful infections, our emergency dentistry services provide fast, effective care when you need it most.
We treat cracked teeth, severe pain, bleeding, swelling and more, offering same-day appointments and sedation options to make your visit as stress-free as possible. Our goal in every emergency is the same: get you out of pain and back to your regular life as quickly and comfortably as we can.
Call Our Office for Emergency Care
Common Dental Emergencies We Treat
Dental emergencies come in many forms, and knowing what qualifies can help you decide how quickly to seek care. We regularly see and treat:
- Severe or persistent toothaches that don't improve with over-the-counter pain relief
- Knocked-out or partially dislodged teeth from falls, sports injuries, or other accidents
- Cracked, chipped or fractured teeth causing pain or sharp edges
- Swelling or infection in the gums, cheek or jaw area
- Lost fillings or crowns that expose sensitive tooth structure
- Bleeding that won't stop, whether from an injury or another underlying issue
- Broken or damaged orthodontic appliances causing discomfort or injury to soft tissue
If you're unsure whether your situation qualifies as an emergency, call our office. We would rather confirm you're okay than have you wait in pain unnecessarily.
What To Do Before You Reach Us
While you're on your way to our office, a few quick steps can help protect your tooth or manage the situation until we can see you:
- Knocked-out tooth – Keep the tooth moist, avoid touching the root, and try to place it back in the socket if possible without forcing it. If that's not possible, keep it in milk or saliva and get to our office immediately.
- Severe toothache – Rinse with warm water and gently floss around the area to rule out trapped food, but avoid placing aspirin directly on the gum or tooth.
- Chipped or broken tooth – Rinse your mouth with warm water and save any broken tooth fragments if you can find them.
- Bleeding – Apply gentle, firm pressure with clean gauze or cloth and keep your head elevated while heading to our office.
- Swelling – Apply a cold compress to the outside of the face to help minimize swelling until you're seen.
