How Do I Know I Have a Dental Emergency?

A dental emergency is any sudden, severe dental problem that requires immediate attention. Generally speaking, if there is extreme pain, the possibility of long-lasting harm, or something lodged between the teeth or gums, this would constitute a dental emergency.

Here are some other common examples of when you will need to see a dental care expert:

  • This will feel like a throbbing and consistent pain that doesn’t subside.

Emergency Care

What's Included

Pain Relief

We’ll assess the situation and provide immediate pain relief to alleviate your discomfort. This could include offering anesthetic or over-the-counter medication, but it could also include developing a long-term plan for first treating the pain at the source.

Tooth Repair

We can restore your smile with fillings, crowns, or bonding for broken or chipped teeth. If you already have a crown, filling, or other replacement, we can repair it so you can still enjoy the benefits of holistic oral health.

Tooth Extraction

In cases where a tooth is beyond repair, we can safely remove it to prevent further complications. However, this is always a last resort, as we want to preserve as much of the natural tooth as possible, which is conducive to a healthy oral structure.

Emergency Root Canals

If your tooth’s nerve is affected, we can perform a root canal to save it. You should never put off a root canal, as it will accelerate the rate of the infection. The longer you wait, the more likely we will have to remove more of the pulp or extract the tooth altogether.

Soft Tissue Injuries

We understand that it’s not always about teeth. Emergencies happen anywhere in or around the mouth, and we have seen it all. We can treat cuts, lacerations, or other soft tissue injuries in your mouth.

Emergency Dentist

Reaching into a bag of snacks, biting down on something hard, and hearing a sinister “crack” is something you never want to experience. Tooth pain is widespread and can be debilitating.

This is made much worse when there is a dental emergency. Biting down on something hard, receiving trauma near the face area, or a child getting a toy lodged in between their teeth are all examples of the kind of scenarios that we can help with.

How to Handle a Dental Emergency

Severe tooth pain or traumatic accident? If you’re experiencing a dental emergency, follow these steps:
