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.
