Urgent Dental Care
What Is Emergency Dentistry?
Emergency dentistry provides urgent care when dental problems arise suddenly and require immediate attention. This may include severe pain, dental injuries, or infections that need prompt treatment to protect both your smile and overall health.
Pain Relief
We understand how overwhelming dental pain can be. Our priority is to assess the situation quickly and provide treatment that brings relief.
Injury Care
From broken, chipped, or knocked-out teeth, our team acts fast to repair damage and prevent further complications.
Infection Management
In cases of abscess or infection, urgent treatment helps stop the spread and safeguards your health.
In short, emergency dentistry is about giving you the care you need, when you need it most.

Frequently Asked Questions
Get answers to common questions about dental emergencies.
Dental emergencies include severe pain, trauma to teeth or mouth, swelling, bleeding that won't stop, knocked-out teeth, or any condition that requires immediate attention to save a tooth or relieve severe pain.
Handle the tooth by the crown (not the root), rinse gently if dirty, try to reinsert it, or store in milk. Seek immediate dental care within 30 minutes for the best chance of saving the tooth.
We prioritize dental emergencies and typically see emergency patients the same day. For severe cases, we can often accommodate immediate appointments.
Please contact the emergency department at your nearest hospital or an after-hours emergency clinic for afterhours and emergencies requiring attention to non-dental areas.
