When to Act Fast and Seek Care
When it comes to dental emergencies, knowing what to look for can make all the difference. These urgent situations involve the teeth, gums, or oral structures and require immediate attention from a dentist to relieve pain, prevent further damage, or save a tooth.
Common dental emergencies include severe toothaches, knocked-out or chipped teeth, lost fillings or crowns, gum infections, abscesses, or injuries to the mouth. These emergencies often involve intense pain, bleeding, swelling, or difficulty eating or speaking. But don’t worry, we’re here to guide you through.

​
One of the most common dental problems to require emergency care is sudden tooth loss or breaks, usually caused by trauma or a fall. Although dental accidents are not generally life-threatening, getting immediate care from a dentist is necessary in order to help preserve the tooth and the smile’s overall appearance. Even small breaks can cause nerve injuries through bacteria build-up in the soft pulp inside the tooth, potentially resulting in permanent damage if left untreated. A tooth fracture that might seem to be little more than a cosmetic problem can sometimes actually need a root canal to prevent infection and nerve damage.
