Emergency Treatments We Provide

Depending on your situation, emergency treatment may include:

Toothache Relief

Severe tooth pain is often caused by infection, decay, or damage inside the tooth. We diagnost the cause and provide appropiate treatment to eliminate pain.

Root Canal Therapy

If the inner portion of the tooth becomes infected, a root canal may be necessary to remove the infection and save the tooth

Tooth Extractions

In cases where the tooth becomes too damaged or infected to save, a gentle extraction may be recommended to prevent the infection from spreading.

Repair for broken or cracked teeth

We can restore damaged teeth using crowns, bonding, or other restorative solutions to rebuild strength and appearance.

Treatment for Dental Infections

Dental abscesses can be serious and should be treated quickly. Our team can relieve pressure, remove infection, and protect surrounding teeth.

What to do during a dental emergency

If you experience a dental emergency, taking the right steps can help prevent further damage. For educational purposes only.

For severe tooth pain:

Rinse your mouth with room temperature water and, if able, gently floss around the tooth to remove trapped debris.

For a knocked-out tooth:

Handle the tooth by the crown (not the root), rinse gently and place it in milk or saliva if possible before coming to the office immediately.

For a broken tooth:

Rinse with warm water and apply a cold compress to reduce swelling.

In all cases, contact our office as soon as possible so we can guide you and arrange treatment.
