LEARN MOREWe don’t want you to have unnecessary stress on top of a dental emergency. Our emergency exams are $35 and include any necessary x-rays. Dental emergencies are medical emergencies, and should be treated as such. This handy dental emergency guide may help with some guidance.
If you’re at a 7 and can’t sleep, work or drive because of tooth pain—you need to call us. We can get you in same-day and take care of you. If you aren’t sure if it’s a true emergency, call anyway and we can let you know if you should come in right away or if waiting is OK.
We’ve seen it all when it comes to dental trauma. If a tooth is knocked out, knocked loose or broken don’t wait until tomorrow. In order to have the best chance at saving or repairing the tooth we need to see you today.
Call us immediately if you need help.
If your tooth or teeth are broken during an accident, do not try and fix the tooth using super glue. If you attempt to reattach a filling, crown or chip with super glue, your dentist will have to work even harder to fix the problem. Removing an ill-placed crown that is super-glued is not easy. The best advice is to call us immediately.
Even with the best dentistry, broken fillings can happen. If a filling falls out or breaks, don’t panic—but do call us. A broken filling can leave your tooth weakened and more susceptible to breaking. It also exposes the tooth root to infection. The tooth will also be sensitive, so be careful.
