Our dedicated team is trained to handle a variety of dental crises promptly and efficiently, ensuring that residents in and around Phoenix can receive immediate relief and expert treatment when they need it most.

What Is Considered a Dental Emergency?

A dental emergency can encompass anything that requires immediate treatment to save a tooth, stop ongoing tissue bleeding, or alleviate severe pain. Here are some typical situations that you should consider an emergency:

  • Severe Toothache: Pain that is persistent and impact your ability to concentrate or sleep.
  • Broken or Chipped Tooth: Especially when it causes pain or there's a significant portion of the tooth missing.
  • Knocked-Out Tooth: Timely treatment can potentially save the tooth.
  • Lost Filling or Crown: This can cause severe discomfort and affect the functionality of your tooth.
  • Abscess or Infection: Indicated by swellings around the mouth, which can be life-threatening if not treated promptly.

Immediate Steps to Take in a Dental Emergency

If you face a dental emergency, taking the right actions immediately can potentially save your teeth and prevent further complications. Here’s what you can do before you reach our office:

  • For a knocked-out tooth: Keep it moist at all times. Try placing it back in the socket without touching the root, or keep it in a glass of milk.
  • For a cracked tooth: Immediately rinse your mouth with warm water to clean the area and apply a cold compress to the face to keep any swelling down.
  • For toothaches: Clean your mouth with warm water and gently use dental floss to remove any lodged food.
  • For lost crowns: If possible, slip the crown back over the tooth. Before doing so, coat the inner surface with dental cement, toothpaste, or denture adhesive to help hold the crown in place.
