Common Dental Emergencies We Treat
- Sudden, severe toothaches
- Infected or abscessed teeth
- Knocked-out (avulsed) teeth
- Broken, cracked, or fractured teeth
- Loose or missing fillings and crowns
- Painful or inflamed gums
- Broken or damaged dentures
- Dry socket after a tooth extraction
Immediate Care for Critical Situations
✅ Knocked-Out Tooth
Place the tooth back in the socket if possible, or store it in milk. Immediate attention increases the chance we can save the tooth.
✅ Persistent Toothache
Severe, ongoing tooth pain often signals infection. We may recommend a filling, root canal therapy, or other urgent treatment to relieve your discomfort.
✅ Broken or Fractured Tooth
Major cracks or fractures can expose the inner tooth, requiring a filling, crown, root canal, or even extraction.
✅ Dental Abscess
Abscesses are infections that can spread quickly. Emergency root canal treatment is often needed to save the tooth and eliminate the infection.
✅ Dry Socket
If you’ve had a recent extraction and experience severe pain, you may have a dry socket that needs prompt cleaning and treatment to heal properly.
