What Constitutes a Dental Emergency?

Dental emergencies can encompass a range of situations, including:

• Severe Toothache: Persistent and intense tooth pain may indicate an underlying issue that requires immediate attention.
• Trauma or Injury: Accidents, falls, or other trauma to the mouth can result in broken teeth, dislodged teeth, or injuries to the soft tissues.
• Swelling or Infection: Swelling around the face or signs of infection, such as abscesses, should be addressed promptly to prevent complications.
• Lost or Broken Restorations: If a filling, crown, bridge, or other dental restoration becomes damaged or dislodged, it may require urgent attention.

Severe Toothache Relief

Persistent and severe toothaches can be debilitating. Our team will assess the underlying cause of your toothache and implement appropriate measures to alleviate pain and initiate necessary treatments.

Infection Control and Treatment

Oral infections can lead to serious health issues if left untreated. We promptly address infections, providing antibiotics and other treatments to control the spread of infection and relieve discomfort.

What to Do in a Dental Emergency

• Contact Us: If you are an existing patient, use our after-hours emergency line for immediate assistance. New patients can call our regular office line for guidance.
• Manage Pain: Over-the-counter pain relievers and cold compresses can help manage pain and swelling until you receive professional care.
• Preserve Knocked-Out Teeth: If a tooth is knocked out, gently rinse it with water and place it back into the socket if possible. If not, keep it in a container of milk or saliva until you can see a dentist.
