Do you offer same-day emergency dental appointments?

Yes. Cochran Family Dental prioritizes emergency patients and works to accommodate same-day visits whenever possible. Call 703-771-9034 and our team will advise you on next steps.

What should I do if a tooth gets knocked out?

Pick up the tooth by the crown (not the root), gently rinse if dirty, and try to place it back in the socket. If that is not possible, store it in milk or a tooth preservation kit and get to our office within 30 minutes for the best chance of saving the tooth.

Should I go to the ER or the dentist for a dental emergency?

Visit the emergency room if you have difficulty breathing or swallowing, uncontrollable bleeding, a broken jaw, or a head injury. For all other dental emergencies, calling Cochran Family Dental at 703-771-9034 provides faster, more specialized care.

Common Dental Emergencies We Treat

Our emergency services cover severe toothaches, knocked-out, chipped, cracked, or broken teeth, lost or damaged fillings, crowns, or restorations, abscesses and dental infections, soft tissue injuries to the gums, lips, cheeks, or tongue, and broken or damaged dentures or orthodontic appliances.

What to Do in a Dental Emergency

For a knocked-out tooth: pick it up by the crown, rinse gently, try to place it back in the socket or store in milk, and get to our office within 30 minutes.

For a severe toothache, rinse your mouth with warm salt water and apply a cold compress to reduce swelling. Avoid placing aspirin directly on the gums. For a broken tooth, save any pieces, rinse your mouth gently, and apply a cold compress.

When to Go to the Emergency Room

If you are experiencing difficulty breathing or swallowing, uncontrollable bleeding, a broken or dislocated jaw, or a head injury associated with a dental injury, go to the nearest emergency room first. For all other dental emergencies, call our office for the fastest path to relief.

Preventing Dental Emergencies

Regular dental checkups, wearing a custom mouth guard during sports, avoiding chewing on hard objects like ice or popcorn kernels, and addressing dental problems early can significantly reduce your risk.

Cochran dental checkup is always friendly, and on top of things. I've never been left waiting for long, and they make sure I'm comfortable with each step of the cleaning.

Jason and Kristan Cound

Cochran Family Dentistry is a “first-rate”practice! My wife has been a patient here for years, and I am thankful she referred me.
I moved to the area in 2021 after previously enjoying regular, free, high-quality dental care in the military my entire adult life. I went to another dental practice in Ashburn 14 months ago for xrays and a cleaning, and really did not like the experience one bit. “Pushy” “pricey” and “impersonal” are descriptors I never thought I would use when referring to a dental practice. Having to repeatedly decline the same “optional” treatments during the same visit leaves a bad taste in one’s mouth.
Thankfully, Dr. Cochran and his team are the exact opposite of this, and I am so thankful to be a new patient of theirs! If you long for that nostalgic “hometown dentist” feel thst you experienced growing up in the U.S.A., then pick up the phone and book an appointment with Cochran Family Dental! 🇺🇸

My Dentist always does a great job, she friendly, efficient and makes my cleaning and check up a pleasant experience. The Dr. also checks things open and he is great to talk to. I’d recommend this place to anyone. My family goes here as well.

Dr. Brian Cochran, DDS is an exceptional dentist who provided a pain-free and highly professional root canal experience. From the moment I walked in, I felt calm and well cared for. Dr. Cochran took the time to explain every step of the procedure, ensuring I was comfortable and informed throughout. His gentle approach and attention to detail made what I expected to be a stressful experience completely manageable. The office staff was friendly, efficient, and made scheduling easy. I was seen promptly. The results have been excellent—no pain, no complications, and a tooth that feels strong and natural. I highly recommend Dr. Cochran to anyone needing a root canal or any dental care. He truly puts patient comfort and quality care first.

Susan Christoff

I have been coming here for several years, now even driving here from my new home in Rhode Island, and have always found Dr. Cochran to be an excellent provider, friendly, compassionate, as is his staff.Bethann used to be my hygienist until she switched things up and runs things at the front desk but it’s always like saying hi to an old friend when I come in for an appointment. Today my hygienist was Rebecca and she was great. My appointment today was to be a cleaning and a small filling. Unfortunately, or fortunately, I noticed a problem with a tooth in the morning of my appointment. Dr. Cochran was able to take care of that in addition to the other tooth all in less than an hour. Great practice all around.. highly recommend!

Response from the owner:Susie
Thank you so much for your kind review and as always we appreciate your fantastic attitude and personality. It makes our day to have patients such as yourself!
