A dental emergency is a situation that requires immediate attention from a dental professional. If you are experiencing a dental emergency, we encourage you to contact our office as soon as possible to schedule an emergency visit with our dentist. We understand there is no way to plan for a dental emergency, so please call at any time, and we can arrange an appointment as quickly as possible to minimize damage and any lasting side effects. A dental emergency can include, but is not limited to, the following:
- A cracked, broken, chipped or fractured tooth
- A lost restoration, such as a filling or a crown
- Severe toothaches or any other tooth pain or intense discomfort
- Partially or completely knocked-out tooth
- Damage to any soft tissues in your mouth, including tongue, cheeks, gums and lips
If you are suffering from any of the above conditions, please contact our office immediately. We will provide you with the information you need to prevent any further damage in the time before your emergency visit. Our dentist and team will then be able to assess the damage and restore the health of your smile. If you have experienced trauma to your head or neck, we strongly recommend visiting the emergency room or your general physician before scheduling with us, even if your smile has also been affected.
