What Is an Emergency Dentist?

An emergency dentist provides urgent dental care for patients experiencing pain, injury, or trauma that can’t wait for a regular appointment. Whether it’s a sudden toothache, a knocked-out tooth, or a broken crown, emergency dentistry ensures you get the relief and treatment you need right away.

Dental emergencies can happen at any time — and when they do, it’s important to act quickly. Our team is here to help restore your comfort and prevent further complications.

Common Dental Emergencies We Treat

Dental emergencies can take many forms. Here are some of the most common reasons people contact our office for urgent care:

  • Severe toothache or dental pain
  • Knocked-out or loose adult teeth
  • Cracked, chipped, or broken teeth
  • Lost or broken dental fillings
  • Broken dental crowns or bridges
  • Dental abscesses (infection or swelling)
  • Swelling in the face or gums
  • Injuries to the jaw or mouth

If you’re experiencing any of the above symptoms — or just feel like something isn’t right — don’t wait. Call our office right away.

What To Do If You Have a Dental Emergency

The first step? Call our office immediately. We’ll walk you through next steps and let you know if you should come in right away. If it’s after hours, follow our voicemail instructions or visit your nearest emergency room if necessary.

In the meantime:

  • For a knocked-out tooth: Keep it moist (preferably in milk or your mouth) and bring it with you.
  • For swelling or abscesses: Apply a cold compress and avoid applying heat or pressure.
  • For broken crowns or fillings: Save any broken pieces if possible and avoid chewing on that side.

Don’t Wait—Relief Starts with One Call

Dental pain and emergencies don’t resolve themselves — and delaying treatment can make things worse. Our team is here to help you feel better fast.
