Frequently Asked Questions About Dental Emergencies

What should I do if I knock out a tooth?

If your tooth has been knocked out, carefully rinse it with water (avoid touching the root) and try to place it back in its socket. If this isn’t possible, store it in a container of milk and seek immediate dental care.

How do I know if my toothache is an emergency?

If your toothache is severe, lasts more than a day or two, or is accompanied by a fever, swelling, or foul-tasting discharge, it’s time to contact our office for emergency care.

What if I have a dental emergency outside of regular hours?

While our same-day appointments are available on weekdays, we encourage patients to leave a message or contact a nearby 24/7 clinic for emergencies outside regular hours.

Can a cracked tooth wait until my next appointment?

A cracked tooth may worsen if left untreated, potentially leading to infection or tooth loss. It’s best to have it evaluated as soon as possible.

How can dental emergencies be prevented?

Use a mouthguard during sports, avoid chewing hard items like ice or popcorn kernels, and maintain regular dental check-ups to minimize risks of dental emergencies.

Will my dental insurance cover emergency treatments?

Coverage varies depending on your insurance plan. Our office staff can help you understand your benefits and discuss financing options if needed.
