The Process of Getting Emergency Dental Care
Your emergency visit begins with a careful review of your symptoms. Our team will ask about your pain, injury, swelling, or dental concern so we can understand your situation and determine the best next step.
During your appointment, we will examine your teeth, gums, and mouth. Digital X-rays may be recommended to check for hidden damage, infection, or other concerns that cannot be seen during a visual exam.
Once we understand the problem, we will explain your treatment options clearly and focus on relieving discomfort as quickly as possible. Depending on your needs, treatment may include repairing a broken tooth, replacing a lost filling or crown, treating infection, stabilising a loose tooth, or planning follow-up care.

FAQ’S
Emergency Dentistry FAQ
If you accidentally knock out a tooth, act quickly to improve the chances of saving it. Gently pick up the tooth by its top part (the crown), avoiding touching the root. Rinse it carefully with warm water to remove debris, without scrubbing. If possible, try reinserting it into the socket without forcing it. If it doesn’t fit easily, store it in cold milk and contact us right away for guidance and to prepare for your visit. Time is of the essence — the tooth needs to be replaced and splinted within 1-2 hours to avoid further damage.
If any of your dental work, such as a filling or crown, has fallen out, it’s important to take action right away. Place the dental piece in a plastic bag or container and bring it with you to our office. Then, contact us right away to set up an emergency appointment. Losing dental work can leave sensitive parts of your mouth exposed to bacteria, which can cause infections, decay, or other problems. Don’t wait to call us so we can fix your dental work and protect your smile.
If you have a severe toothache for more than two days, it might mean there’s an infection that needs immediate care. Call us right away to make an appointment. To ease the pain temporarily, apply a cold compress to your cheek, take pain relievers from the pharmacy, or use a numbing gel like Orajel. Keep in mind that professional help will be required to treat the cause of the toothache and prevent more serious problems.
If you chip, break, or crack a tooth, you need professional care to assess the damage and prevent further problems. It’s difficult to know how bad the damage is without a full examination. Ignoring it can lead to infections and other issues. Call us immediately for an appointment so we can check the damage, determine how to fix and protect your tooth, and create a plan to get you out of pain.
If your tooth is loose because of an injury, it’s important to get in touch with us immediately for a same-day appointment. Not taking care of a loose tooth promptly can cause the nerves that support the tooth to die, which could lead to losing the tooth. To keep it stable, please don’t play with the loose tooth using your tongue or fingers. Once you’re in our office for emergency treatment, the dentist will secure the loose tooth to the ones next to it using a stabilizing splint. This splint helps support and begins the healing process, helping your tooth to reattach to the gums. Please, don’t hesitate to contact us for assistance — we’re here to help save your tooth.
