  • Lost or Broken Filling, Crown, or Bridge – A compromised dental restoration can expose your tooth to damage and infection.
  • Swollen Gums or Abscess – Infections in the gums can be serious and need urgent care to prevent complications.

Children can also experience dental emergencies, from knocked-out baby teeth to toothaches caused by cavities. Our pediatric dental team ensures gentle, effective care for young patients.

What to Do in a Dental Emergency

Knocked-Out Tooth

  • Handle the tooth by the crown (not the root).
  • Rinse it gently with water if dirty, but do not scrub it.
  • Try to place it back into the socket if possible. If not, store it in milk or a tooth preservation solution.
  • Get to our office immediately—the sooner you arrive, the better the chances of saving the tooth.

Severe Tooth Pain

  • Rinse your mouth with warm salt water.
  • Take an over-the-counter pain reliever, but avoid placing aspirin directly on the gums.
  • Call us for an emergency evaluation.

Broken or Chipped Tooth

  • Save any pieces, if possible.
  • Rinse your mouth with warm water.
  • Apply a cold compress to reduce swelling.
  • Contact us to schedule an immediate appointment.

FAQs About Emergency Dental Care

How soon should I see a dentist for a knocked-out tooth?

Ideally, you should see a dentist within 30 minutes to maximize the chances of saving the tooth.

What if my tooth pain goes away on its own?

Even if pain subsides, the underlying issue may still exist. It’s best to have a dentist evaluate the situation to prevent future complications.

Can I go to the ER for a dental emergency?

Hospitals can provide pain relief, but they are not equipped to handle most dental emergencies. It’s best to visit an emergency dentist for proper treatment.

Do you accept emergency walk-ins?

We prioritize same-day appointments, but we recommend calling ahead to ensure the fastest possible care.
