What Is a
Dental Emergency?

A dental emergency is any oral health issue requiring immediate attention to relieve severe pain, stop bleeding, or save a tooth. If you're unsure whether your situation qualifies — call us. We'll assess you over the phone and advise on next steps.

Don't delay treatment. Postponing care can lead to complications, spread of infection, and more extensive procedures. Acting promptly can save your tooth.

Dental Emergencies We Treat

Severe Toothache

Persistent or throbbing tooth pain that doesn't respond to over-the-counter medication requires prompt assessment — it may indicate infection or nerve damage.

Chipped or Cracked Tooth

A chipped or cracked tooth can expose inner layers to bacteria. Save any broken pieces and contact us immediately for same-day repair.

Knocked-Out Tooth

Time is critical. Try to reinsert the tooth into the socket, or keep it moist in milk or saliva and call us immediately. Quick action can save the tooth.

Lost Filling or Crown

A lost filling or crown leaves your tooth vulnerable to further decay and sensitivity. We'll restore your restoration quickly to protect the tooth.

Dental Abscess

An abscess — a painful swelling filled with pus — is a serious infection that can spread. Do not delay treatment if you suspect an abscess.

Broken or Damaged Denture

A broken denture can cause difficulty eating and speaking. Bring all pieces with you — we can often repair or replace dentures promptly.

Painful or Swollen Gums

Sudden gum pain, swelling, or bleeding may indicate infection or advanced gum disease. Let us assess and treat the cause quickly.

Soft Tissue Injury

Cuts or lacerations to the gums, tongue, cheeks, or lips need prompt attention to control bleeding and reduce the risk of infection.

Questions

What should I do if I knock out a tooth?

Try to reinsert the tooth into the socket if possible. If not, keep it moist in milk or your own saliva and call us immediately. Time is critical — acting within an hour significantly improves the chance of saving the tooth.

Can I wait to get treatment for a dental emergency?

It's important not to delay. Postponing care can lead to further complications, increased pain, infection spread, and potentially more extensive treatment. Seeking prompt care can save your tooth and prevent serious issues.

Do I need a root canal if I have a toothache?

Not necessarily — a root canal is one possible treatment for severe tooth pain, but not always the answer. Our team will assess your specific situation and recommend the most appropriate treatment.

When should I go to the emergency room instead?

Go to the nearest emergency room if you're experiencing difficulty breathing or swallowing, severe uncontrolled bleeding, or significant facial trauma. For all other dental emergencies, contact us first for prompt specialized care.

What are your payment options for emergency care?

We accept most insurance plans with direct billing, and offer flexible payment options including cash, debit, and credit cards. Government plans including CDCP, ACHB, and NIHB are also accepted.

What should I expect during my emergency visit?

Upon arrival, we'll assess your situation, provide pain relief, and discuss the necessary treatment options. Our goal is to address your immediate pain first and develop a longer-term plan from there.
