Common Dental Emergencies We Treat

Severe Toothache & Sensitivity

Sudden pain can signal deep decay, a cracked tooth, or infection.

  • Evaluation with digital X-rays
  • Immediate relief options
  • Next steps: filling, crown, or root canal

Broken or Chipped Tooth

Injuries happen — we can often restore the tooth the same day.

  • Bonding for minor chips
  • Crowns or onlays for larger fractures
  • Sensitivity management and aftercare

Lost Filling or Crown

Cover the area if possible and avoid chewing there until we see you.

  • Temporary protection if needed
  • Re-cement or replace restoration
  • Prevent further damage or decay

Dental Abscess & Swelling

Infections require urgent care to prevent spread and relieve pain.

  • Drainage and antibiotics when indicated
  • Root canal therapy or extraction if necessary
  • Home-care and follow-up guidance

Knocked-Out Tooth (Avulsion)

Time-sensitive — call us immediately for the best chance of saving the tooth.

  • Handle by the crown, not the root
  • Rinse gently; keep moist (milk or saliva)
  • Come in within 30–60 minutes

Soft-Tissue Injuries & Sports Trauma

We manage lacerations, tooth displacement, and mouthguard solutions.

  • Bleeding control and assessment
  • Stabilization and splinting as needed
  • Custom athletic mouthguards

Toothache

Rinse with warm salt water, take OTC pain relief as directed, and avoid very hot/cold foods.

Broken Tooth

Save any pieces, cover sharp edges with dental wax, and avoid chewing on the injured side.

Lost Crown/Temporary

Bring it with you. If needed, a small amount of temporary dental cement from a pharmacy may help until your visit.

Do you accept walk-ins for dental emergencies?

Yes — we do our best to accommodate walk-ins and same-day emergency appointments. Call first if possible so we can prepare for your arrival.

How much does an emergency visit cost?

Costs depend on the exam, X-rays, and treatment required. We’ll verify your PPO benefits and provide estimates before proceeding. See our Insurance & Payments page.

Can you help with pain the same day?

Our first goal is to relieve pain and stabilize the issue. Many patients feel significantly better after same-day care such as medication, smoothing sharp edges, temporary restorations, or starting root canal therapy.

Is a toothache always an emergency?

Persistent pain, swelling, fever, or sensitivity to pressure can indicate infection and should be seen promptly. Minor, short-lived sensitivity may not be urgent, but an evaluation is still recommended.

What if my tooth was knocked out?

Handle it by the crown, gently rinse if dirty, and keep moist (in milk or saliva). Call us immediately — reimplantation success is highest within the first hour.

Do you see children for emergencies?

Yes. We provide family emergency dentistry, including sports injuries, dental trauma, and infections. We’ll guide you step-by-step to keep your child comfortable and safe.
