Our team of experienced dentists and staff are here to help you when you need it most, ensuring that you receive the care you need to address your dental emergency.
Common Dental Emergencies We Treat
- Toothaches: Toothaches can be caused by various factors, including tooth decay, gum disease, or an abscessed tooth. Our team will conduct a thorough examination to determine the cause of your toothache and develop a treatment plan to alleviate your pain and address the underlying issue.
- Chipped or Broken Teeth: Whether due to a sports injury, accident, or biting down on a hard object, chipped or broken teeth require immediate attention. Our dentists can repair the damage and restore your tooth’s function and appearance.
- Knocked-Out Teeth: A knocked-out tooth is a dental emergency that requires prompt action. If you experience this, try to reinsert the tooth into the socket, if possible, and hold it in place. If reinsertion is not possible, place the tooth in milk or saliva and seek immediate dental care. Our team will work quickly to try to save the tooth and prevent further damage.
- Lost Fillings or Crowns: If a filling or crown falls out, it’s important to see a dentist as soon as possible to prevent further damage to the tooth. Our team can replace the filling or crown and restore your tooth’s function and appearance.
- Abscesses: An abscess is a serious infection that can cause severe pain and swelling. If you suspect you have an abscess, seek immediate dental care. Our team can drain the abscess and prescribe antibiotics to treat the infection.

We prioritize your comfort and well-being, ensuring that you receive the care you need in a timely manner.
