Red Flags: Dental Signals You Shouldn't Ignore

Dental emergencies don't wait for a convenient time. Whether it's sudden intense pain, swelling, or an accident that damages a tooth, these situations require immediate attention to relieve discomfort and prevent complications. If you're experiencing any of the following, contact us right away:

Relentless tooth pain: A severe toothache that won't let up can signal that your tooth is inflamed or infected.
Dental trauma: Accidents happen. A knocked-out, dislodged, or fractured tooth needs immediate attention to give us the best chance of saving it.
Swelling in your gums, face, or neck: Especially if it comes with pain or fever, this could indicate an infection that needs prompt care.
Dental abscess: That painful, pus-filled bump on your gum is likely the sign of a persistent infection. We can help you get relief and prevent further problems.
A cracked or fractured tooth: Even a small crack can let bacteria inside your tooth and lead to bigger problems. It’s always better to have things evaluated sooner rather than later.

Assessment and Care: During your emergency visit, we'll use advanced diagnostic imaging (including 3D CBCT scans) to understand exactly what's happening with your tooth. We'll walk you through your treatment options and answer any questions you may have. If endodontic treatment is needed, we'll discuss next steps and determine the best timeline for your care based on your current situation. Our priority is managing your pain and getting you comfortable.
Follow Up: After your endodontic care is completed, we'll recommend you follow up with your general dentist for a permanent filling or crown, as indicated. We may also schedule follow-up appointments at our office to confirm that your tooth is healing well and you're comfortable.

Frequently Asked Questions

I'm in a lot of discomfort. How quickly can I get an appointment?

We prioritize emergency cases and will do everything we can to see you as soon as possible. Call our office immediately to explain your situation, and we'll arrange for you to be seen promptly.

Will my insurance cover emergency treatment?

Most dental insurance plans provide coverage for emergency procedures. Our team is happy to help you understand your benefits and will work with you to maximize your coverage. We can review your plan and provide an estimate before beginning treatment.

What can I do to ease the discomfort before my appointment?

You can take over-the-counter pain relievers as directed. Rinsing your mouth with warm salt water may help reduce swelling and discomfort. Applying a cold compress to the outside of your cheek can also provide temporary relief. Avoid placing aspirin directly on the tooth or gums.

Are you accepting new patients for emergencies?

Yes. We welcome both new and existing patients for emergency care. Our primary goal is to help anyone in our community who is experiencing a dental emergency.
