What is a dental emergency?
A dental emergency is any urgent oral health issue that requires prompt attention to relieve pain, stop bleeding, or prevent further damage. Common emergencies include severe toothaches, knocked-out or fractured teeth, lost fillings or crowns, infections, and oral injuries.
Timely treatment is crucial to maintaining your dental health and preventing complications. If you experience sudden discomfort, trauma, or noticeable changes in your teeth or gums, contact us immediately for professional care and guidance.
-
What is not considered a dental emergency?
Not all dental concerns require immediate emergency care. Minor issues, such as small chips without pain, lost fillings or crowns that are not causing discomfort, mild tooth sensitivity, or occasional dull aches, typically do not constitute dental emergencies. These conditions should still be evaluated promptly, but they can often be managed during a scheduled appointment. If you are unsure whether your situation requires urgent attention, please contact our office for guidance and to determine the appropriate next steps.
