  • What is a dental emergency?

    A dental emergency requires immediate attention to stop bleeding, relieve severe pain, save a tooth, or treat an infection. Common emergencies include persistent toothaches, chipped or cracked teeth, and loose or knocked-out teeth. Your situation may be an emergency if:

    • You’re experiencing severe pain or swelling.
    • A tooth is loose or has been knocked out.
    • You have bleeding that won’t stop.
    • You notice significant swelling in your cheeks or jaw alongside a toothache.
    • You have extreme sensitivity or damage to a dental restoration.
  • What is not a dental emergency?

    Not all dental problems require immediate care. For example, a small chip or crack in a tooth may not be urgent unless it’s painful or causes sensitivity. If the issue can wait a few days without worsening, it’s not considered an emergency. 

  • How to handle a dental emergency?

    For immediate care, contact your dentist as soon as possible. If the issue is severe, seek help at an emergency room. In the meantime, here are some steps you can take:

    • Apply a cold compress to reduce swelling.
    • Rinse with warm salt water to clean the area.
    • Place a knocked-out tooth in a glass of milk to preserve it until your visit.
    • Use over-the-counter pain relief to manage discomfort.
    • Avoid chewing on the affected area.
  • What should I do if I have a toothache?

    If you have a toothache, contact our office promptly to schedule an appointment. Until then, rinse your mouth with warm water and floss gently to remove any trapped food. You can manage discomfort by taking over-the-counter pain relief and applying a cold compress to reduce swelling.

  • What should I do if my dental filling or crown breaks?

    If a dental filling or crown breaks, save any pieces and avoid chewing on that side of your mouth. You can use temporary dental cement from a pharmacy to secure a loose crown until your appointment. Be sure to seek professional care promptly to prevent further damage or infection.
