Emergency Dental Care
When something cannot wait.
For tooth pain, swelling or an injury, call an office directly.
Urgent symptoms? Please call.
For trouble breathing or swallowing, uncontrolled bleeding or major facial trauma, call 911 or seek emergency medical care.
Who it helps
Urgent dental assessment may be needed for a broken tooth, persistent pain, a lost restoration or a dental injury. Swelling can require prompt attention.
What to expect
The dentist assesses the concern and may recommend imaging. Initial treatment and longer-term care depend on the diagnosis. An emergency visit may be the first step of a treatment plan.
Why this practice
Emergency dental care is listed among the practice’s services. Both office numbers are available here so you can speak with the team instead of waiting on an online form.
A few common questions
What if the situation is life-threatening?
Call 911 or go to an emergency department for trouble breathing or swallowing, severe spreading swelling, uncontrolled bleeding or major facial trauma.
What if a permanent tooth is knocked out?
Seek dental care immediately. Keep the tooth moist in milk or a tooth preservation product and avoid touching the root. Do not wait for a website response.
