What is a dental emergency?

Severe Toothache

If you have long-lasting or severe tooth pain, it could be a sign that something is wrong. While some tooth pain is normal and doesn’t require emergency treatment, you should seek medical attention right away if:

  • Your tooth pain is severe
  • Your tooth pain isn’t going away
  • You notice swelling

When a tooth chips, cracks, or breaks it can be quite painful and can damage your teeth if left untreated. Emergency dental care can repair your tooth so you don’t have to deal with unnecessary pain for too long.

If a tooth has completely fallen out, you may be able to save the tooth if you seek medical care right away.

If you find yourself in this situation, place the tooth in milk or warm water and contact us once you’re already on the way. If a tooth is placed back in its socket within 10 to 30 minutes, it might be able to retake root.

If you have a filling that has become loose or has completely fallen out, it can leave your tooth vulnerable to bacteria, infection, and pain.

If this happens to you or someone you know, call our team immediately and we can take the steps to get your filling replaced.


If you bite your tongue or lip badly enough to the point where it won’t stop bleeding, you need emergency care. While you’re waiting to be seen, place a clean cloth on the injured area and use an ice pack to reduce any swelling.
