Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know if I have a dental emergency?
If you’re not sure whether you need an immediate appointment, a same-day appointment, or if you can schedule a visit for the near future, we recommend giving our office a call for assistance.
Can I get a same-day emergency dental appointment?
In many cases, yes. We make every effort to accommodate emergency patients with same-day appointments whenever possible.
What should I do if my tooth gets knocked out?
Handle the tooth by the crown, rinse it gently, and try to place it back into the socket. If you cannot, store it in milk and contact our office immediately.
Is a broken tooth considered a dental emergency?
A broken or cracked tooth can expose sensitive areas of the tooth and may lead to infection, making prompt treatment important.
Should I go to the emergency room for dental pain?
Most dental emergencies are best treated by an emergency dentist. However, if you have severe facial swelling, difficulty breathing, or significant trauma, seek emergency medical care immediately.
How can I prevent dental emergencies?
Regular dental checkups, an excellent oral care routine, wearing a mouthguard during sports, and avoiding chewing hard objects like ice can help reduce your risk of dental injuries.
