What Counts as a Dental Emergency?
No emergency is too minor or too complex—if you suspect something is wrong, don’t hesitate to reach out. Our team is equipped to handle a variety of urgent dental situations, including:
- Severe pain, abscesses, or oral infections
- Lost restorations like bridges, crowns, veneers, or fillings
- Orthodontic problems (broken wires, cracked aligners, loose brackets)
- Damaged prosthetics (broken dentures or partials)
- Cracked, chipped, fractured, or broken teeth
How to Handle Common Dental Emergencies
- Lost or broken crown/filling: While restorations usually can’t be reused, save any pieces you find and bring them to your visit. Don’t attempt to reattach them yourself.
- Knocked out or broken teeth: Call our office right away. If possible, retrieve the tooth by the crown (top part), gently rinse off dirt with water, and avoid removing tissue fragments. Place the tooth in milk or your own saliva in a small container. Teeth have the best chance of reattachment within one hour. If saving the tooth isn’t possible, we offer restorative solutions like implants and bridges.
- Tooth pain: Sudden toothaches are common and may be due to trapped food. Gently brush and floss around the area, and rinse with warm water or a mild saltwater solution.
- Broken dentures or bridges: Bring all pieces with you to your appointment. Many times, these can be repaired, but we’ll assess your prosthetic and recommend the best repair or replacement options.
