Emergency Dental Care for the Whole Family

When something is wrong with your teeth or gums, waiting can sometimes make the problem worse.

We will evaluate your symptoms, identify the source of the problem, and explain your treatment options so you know what to expect.

What Is Considered a Dental Emergency?

Some dental concerns require more immediate attention than others. Contact our office if you or your child experiences:

• Severe or persistent tooth pain
• A broken or cracked tooth
• A knocked-out tooth
• Swelling of the face, gums, or jaw
• A dental infection or abscess
• A loose or damaged dental crown
• A lost filling
• Dental trauma or injury
• Pain when biting or chewing
• Sudden sensitivity that does not improve
• An injured baby or permanent tooth

If you are unsure whether your situation requires emergency dental care, our team can help determine the best next step.

Emergency Dentistry for Children

Dental emergencies can be especially stressful when they involve your child.

Our pediatric dental specialists provide gentle emergency care for children with problems such as toothaches, dental injuries, chipped teeth, damaged baby teeth, or other urgent concerns.

We focus on helping children feel comfortable while giving parents clear information about the condition of their child’s smile and any recommended treatment.

Emergency Dental Care for Teens & Adults

Teens and adults may experience dental emergencies caused by decay, infection, damaged restorations, accidents, or sudden dental pain.

Depending on the problem, emergency treatment may involve:

• Repairing a broken or damaged tooth
• Treating tooth decay
• Replacing or repairing a filling
• Restorative dental treatment
• Root canal treatment when appropriate
• Treatment for dental infections
• Other care based on your individual needs

Our goal is to address the immediate concern while helping protect your long-term oral health.

What Should I Do During a Dental Emergency?

Contacting a dentist as soon as possible is an important first step.

Until you can be evaluated:

• Avoid chewing on the affected side
• Keep the area as clean as possible
• Rinse gently with warm water if needed
• Keep any broken pieces of a tooth
• Handle a knocked-out permanent tooth by the crown, not the root
• Do not ignore significant swelling or worsening pain

If you experience a severe facial injury, difficulty breathing, uncontrolled bleeding, or another potentially life-threatening emergency, seek appropriate emergency medical care.
