If you are experiencing a dental emergency:

  Decide if you need to call the dentist. We
  recommend calling if: a tooth has been pushed back or fallen out, you or your child
  has bitten through the upper or lower lip or tongue.
• 
  Decide if an Emergency Room visit is needed.
  We recommend going to the ER if: there is a broken bone or other significant
  injury.
• 
  Monitor the situation from home. We recommend
  monitoring the situation from home if: your child is not bleeding, no major bruising
  or swelling has occurred, no teeth have been moved or no teeth are significantly
  mobile.

Common Issues Requiring Urgent Dental Care

Knocked-Out Teeth

If an accident knocks out your permanent tooth, fast action is critical. We can often save and re-implant the natural tooth if you reach our clinic within one hour of the incident.

Severe Toothaches

Intense, throbbing pain that keeps you awake often indicates a deep infection or a dental abscess. This requires immediate clinical treatment to prevent the infection from spreading to your jaw, face, or bloodstream.

Cracked or Broken Teeth

Biting down on a hard piece of food can easily fracture your enamel. We repair broken teeth quickly to restore your bite and prevent harmful bacteria from entering the sensitive inner pulp of the tooth.

Lost Crowns or Fillings

A missing restoration exposes the delicate inner layers of your tooth to extreme temperatures and bacteria. We can replace your crown or filling promptly to protect your tooth from further decay and eliminate sensitivity.
