Common dental emergencies
When should you call us?
If something hurts, feels swollen, broke unexpectedly, or prevents you from eating normally, call our office. We will help determine how quickly you should be seen.
Broken or Cracked Tooth
Early evaluation can help determine whether a damaged tooth can be repaired with bonding, a filling, a crown, or root canal treatment.
Swelling or Abscess
Facial swelling, gum swelling, drainage, fever, or a bad taste can indicate infection and should be evaluated promptly.
Lost Crown or Filling
A missing restoration can leave a tooth sensitive or vulnerable. We can evaluate whether it can be recemented, repaired, or replaced.
Dental Injury
Falls, sports injuries, and accidents can loosen, displace, fracture, or knock out teeth. Timing can be important.
Broken Denture or Implant
We evaluate damaged dentures, loose implant restorations, broken prosthetic teeth, and other appliance concerns.
More than a temporary patch
Our goal is to solve the immediate problem while protecting your long-term oral health.

Emergency FAQs
Questions patients commonly ask.
Can you see me today?+
We reserve time for urgent problems whenever possible. Call early so our team can assess your symptoms and find the soonest appropriate opening.
Can my tooth be saved?+
Many painful or damaged teeth can be restored. The answer depends on the amount of remaining tooth structure, infection, bone support, cracks, and your long-term goals.
Will you complete treatment during the emergency visit?+
Often we can, but it depends on the diagnosis, treatment complexity, your medical history, and the time available that day.
Should I go to the hospital?+
Most toothaches require a dentist for definitive treatment. Hospital emergency departments are appropriate for significant facial trauma, uncontrolled bleeding, difficulty breathing or swallowing, or rapidly worsening swelling.
What should I do with a knocked-out permanent tooth?+
Handle the tooth by the crown, not the root. If it is dirty, gently rinse it without scrubbing. Place it back in the socket if possible or keep it moist in milk, and call a dentist immediately.
