How to Handle a Dental Emergency
Toothache
Rinse your mouth with warm water and use a cold compress to reduce swelling. Avoid chewing on the affected side until you can see the dentist.
Knocked-Out Tooth
Try to place the tooth back in its socket if possible. If not, keep it moist in milk or saline solution and bring it to our office immediately.
Broken Tooth
Save any pieces and rinse your mouth with warm water. Apply gauze to any bleeding areas and use a cold compress to reduce swelling.
Aftercare
Once the treatment is complete, we’ll provide guidance on how to maintain your bright new smile at home.
Frequently
Asked Questions
What qualifies as a dental emergency?
A dental emergency includes severe pain, injury to your teeth or gums, or any issue that requires immediate attention to prevent further damage.
Can I go to the ER for a dental emergency?
While ERs can provide pain relief, it’s best to see a dentist for specialized care. We handle the root cause of your dental issue.
How quickly should I come in for a knocked-out tooth?
If possible, you should come in within 30 minutes of losing a tooth. The sooner you receive treatment, the higher the chances of saving the tooth.
Does insurance cover emergency dental visits?
Many insurance plans cover emergency treatments. Our team can help you navigate your insurance benefits, and we offer flexible financing options.
