Common Dental Emergencies We Treat

We are equipped to handle a wide range of urgent dental issues. Here is how we can help you:

Severe Toothaches - Relentless throbbing or sharp pain is often a sign of deep decay or infection. We use advanced 3D imaging to pinpoint the cause and provide immediate relief, often through root canal therapy or soothing medication.
Knocked-Out Teeth - This is a critical emergency. If you act fast (within 1 hour), we may be able to save your natural tooth. Keep the tooth moist (in milk or your cheek) and get to our office immediately.
Broken or Chipped Teeth - A fractured tooth can expose sensitive nerves and lead to infection. We can often repair the damage in a single visit using cosmetic bonding, veneers, or a same-day dental crown.
Dental Abscesses - A pimple-like bump on your gums, fever, or facial swelling can indicate a serious, potentially dangerous infection. We treat abscesses aggressively to drain the infection and protect your overall health.
Lost Fillings or Crowns - Losing a restoration leaves your tooth vulnerable to damage and sensitivity. We can replace lost fillings or re-cement crowns to protect your tooth structure.

Frequently Asked Questions About Dental Emergencies

What counts as a dental emergency? If you are in severe pain, have uncontrolled bleeding, have knocked out a permanent tooth, or have a swollen jaw/face, you have a dental emergency. Call us immediately. Minor chips or loose fillings are urgent but can usually wait 24 hours if you are not in pain.
Do you offer payment plans for emergency care? Yes. We believe financial stress shouldn't stop you from getting urgent treatment. We accept most PPO insurance plans and offer flexible financing through CareCredit. We also have an in-house Dental Savings Plan for patients without insurance.
What if I have an emergency after hours? Our commitment to you doesn't end at 5 PM. Our phone lines are monitored 24/7. If you call after hours, you will speak with a professional who can triage your emergency and, if necessary, connect you with our on-call doctor.
Will you pull my tooth? Our goal is always to save your natural teeth whenever possible. However, if a tooth is severely damaged or infected and risks your health, we perform gentle, comfortable emergency tooth extractions. We also offer sedation options to ensure you are relaxed during the procedure.
