Dental emergencies are unpredictable—but your care doesn't have to be overwhelming.

Why Timely Dental Attention Matters

Certain dental issues can become more serious and painful if left untreated. A cracked tooth might become infected, a knocked-out tooth has the best chance of being saved if treated quickly, and dental abscesses can lead to serious health risks if ignored.

That’s why we encourage patients to call us promptly if they think they’re experiencing a dental emergency. While we may not always be able to offer same-day treatment for every case, we’ll work with you to determine urgency, offer care when possible, and connect you to appropriate resources if immediate care elsewhere is needed.

Not all dental problems require immediate attention, but here are some signs that you may need urgent evaluation:

• Persistent or severe tooth pain 
• A knocked-out or loose tooth 
• Cracked or broken teeth 
• Lost fillings, crowns, or dental appliances 
• Swelling, bleeding, or signs of infection 
• Oral injuries or facial trauma 

If you’re unsure, call us—we can help assess the situation and determine the best course of action.

Tips for Managing a Dental Emergency Until Your Visit

While you’re waiting to be seen, here are a few helpful actions you can take:

• Toothache: Rinse with warm salt water and take OTC pain medication. Avoid chewing on the affected side. 
• Knocked-out tooth: Handle by the crown, not the root. Rinse gently and try to place it back in the socket. If not, keep it in milk or saliva until your visit. 
• Cracked or chipped tooth: Rinse your mouth and apply a cold compress. Save any pieces, if possible.
• Lost crown or filling: Use dental cement or toothpaste as a temporary cover. Avoid hard or sticky foods.
