A dental emergency constitutes any sort of dental injury, facial swelling or acute pain. Broken, chipped and knocked-out teeth are common examples of dental emergencies, as the dentist will need to promptly address this to reduce long term risks to your tooth/teeth.
Your first step will be to call us and appraise us of your situation. We can provide you with instructions on how to immediately care for your injury and/or alleviate your symptoms. If you need to be seen, we will offer you the earliest appointment possible, often on the very same day, based on a triaging system.
