Emergency Dentistry

HERE ARE SOME EXAMPLES OF WHAT CONSTITUTES A DENTAL EMERGENCY:

​

• Any pain or discomfort in the mouth whether or not your feel that this is associated with a tooth

• Any amount of swelling inside your mouth, around a tooth/gums, or visible swelling on your face

• An unusual/unexpected amount of sensitivity on one or more teeth (usually responding to cold/hot/sweets)

• A broken or chipped tooth, filling, crown, or any part of tooth structure

• A sudden change in your taste or breath – the feeling of a bad taste or smell coming out of your mouth that was never there before

• Any amount of tooth related discomfort or pain which disrupts your sleep or eating

​

NOTE: if you are experiencing ANY of the above, DO NOT wait and contact the office or the doctor on call!
