Common Dental Emergencies We Treat
Dental emergencies can occur at any time—during meals, physical activity, or even while resting. Knowing how to respond can help protect your teeth until you reach our office. Below are common emergency situations and immediate steps you can take.
Chipped, Cracked, or Broken Tooth
Rinse your mouth gently with warm water to keep the area clean. A cold compress applied to the outside of the cheek can help reduce swelling or discomfort. Contact our office promptly, and if possible, bring any broken tooth fragments with you.
Loose or Knocked-Out Tooth
A loose or completely dislodged tooth requires immediate attention. If the tooth has come out, handle it by the crown only and gently rinse it if dirty. Try placing it back into the socket without forcing it. If that’s not possible, keep it in milk or between your cheek and gums and contact us immediately.
Severe or Persistent Tooth Pain
Ongoing or worsening tooth pain may indicate infection or deep decay. While pain relievers may offer short-term relief, they won’t treat the cause. Reaching out quickly allows us to diagnose the issue and begin appropriate care.
Injuries to Lips, Cheeks, or Tongue
If soft tissue is injured, gently clean the area and apply a cold compress to manage swelling. If bleeding continues or becomes heavy, contact our office for further guidance.
