A dental crisis can happen when you least expect it, often causing pain and discomfort. It’s important to know the different types of dental emergencies and how to handle them:

Toothaches – Toothaches can range from mild discomfort to severe pain. Rinse your mouth with warm water and gently floss to remove any trapped food. Avoid placing aspirin on the gums as it can cause burns. Call our office as soon as possible to schedule an appointment.
Chipped or Broken Teeth – If a tooth is chipped or broken, rinse your mouth with warm water and save any broken pieces if possible. Apply a cold compress to reduce swelling. Call for an appointment so we can evaluate you and provide treatment.
Knocked-Out Tooth – For a knocked-out tooth, hold it by the crown (white part) and rinse it gently with water. Place it back in the socket if possible, or store it in a cup of milk or keep it moist with saliva. Seek dental care within 30 minutes for the best chance of saving the tooth.
Lost or Loose Dental Restoration – If a filling or crown falls out or becomes loose, keep the area clean and avoid chewing on that side. Contact our office for an appointment to repair or replace the restoration.

Common Questions About Dental Emergencies

Can you help with my dental emergency?

Over the years, we’ve been able to help many of our patients through their dental emergencies, and we’d be happy to help you as well. If you call us with a dental emergency, we’ll likely ask you, “How soon can you be here?” That’s how seriously we take your oral health and our mission to get you out of pain.

What can you do for my dental emergency?

When you come in for a dental emergency, we’ll first assess your condition to determine the next steps. Depending on your situation, we will recommend particular services to restore your smile. They may include a tooth-colored filling to repair dental decay, a dental crown to strengthen a damaged tooth, a root canal to repair an infected tooth, or a tooth extraction if we’re not able to save your tooth.

Can I prevent dental emergencies?

No one can anticipate every possible dental emergency, but you can take steps to reduce your odds of having such a problem. Following ADA recommendations – brushing and flossing daily and getting regular dental cleanings – reduces your risk of tooth infections and gum disease. Wearing athletic mouthguards during sports can protect your teeth from injuries.
