A dental emergency is any situation involving significant pain, bleeding, swelling, or trauma to the teeth or mouth. Getting seen quickly can make the difference between saving a tooth and losing one.
Root Canal Therapy
Used to treat an infected or badly decayed tooth, removing damaged pulp to relieve pain and save the natural tooth.
Tooth Extraction
When a tooth can't be saved, extraction removes it to relieve pain and prevent infection from spreading.
Repair of a Broken or Chipped Tooth
Depending on severity, this might mean bonding, a crown, or another restorative treatment to protect the tooth.
When to Call
If you're dealing with severe pain, a knocked-out tooth, uncontrolled bleeding, or facial swelling, don't wait for a routine appointment slot — call your dentist's office directly and explain what's happening so the team can get you in as soon as possible.
