Compassionate Care When You Need It Most

What Is a Dental Emergency?

A dental emergency is any situation that requires immediate attention to alleviate severe pain, stop bleeding, or address an infection. Common dental emergencies include:

  • Severe tooth pain

  • A cracked or broken tooth

  • A knocked-out tooth

  • Swelling or infection in the gums or jaw

  • Dental abscess

If you’re experiencing any of these symptoms, don’t wait—contact us right away. We prioritize emergency cases and strive to offer same-day appointments whenever possible.

Palliative Care for Immediate Pain Relief

Sometimes, a temporary solution is needed to manage pain and stabilize your condition until a more permanent treatment can be performed. Palliative care focuses on relieving discomfort and preventing the situation from worsening. This may include:

  • Applying a temporary filling or dressing to protect the tooth

  • Administering pain-relieving medication

  • Draining an abscess to reduce swelling

Our goal with palliative treatment is to provide immediate relief and buy time until a full treatment plan can be implemented.

Same-Day Tooth Extractions

If a tooth is severely damaged or infected and cannot be saved, a same-day extraction may be necessary. Our team provides gentle, efficient extractions to remove problematic teeth and relieve your discomfort. We use modern techniques to minimize pain and ensure a quick recovery.

Reasons for a tooth extraction:

  • Severely decayed or infected teeth

  • Fractured teeth that cannot be restored

  • Preparation for orthodontic treatment

What to expect:

  • Thorough evaluation and discussion of options

  • Use of local anesthesia to ensure a comfortable procedure

  • Post-extraction care instructions for smooth healing

Phase 1 of Root Canal Therapy

If you have an infected or severely damaged tooth, the first phase of root canal therapy can help save your tooth. During Phase 1, we’ll remove the infected tissue from inside the tooth and relieve pressure and pain caused by the infection. This allows us to preserve the tooth and prepare it for the completion of the root canal at a follow-up appointment.

What happens during Phase 1:

  • Removal of infected or inflamed pulp from the tooth

  • Cleaning and disinfecting the root canals to prevent further infection

  • Temporary filling to protect the tooth until the next phase of treatment

When to consider root canal therapy:

  • Intense, persistent toothache

  • Sensitivity to hot or cold

  • Swelling or tenderness in the gums, without facial swelling

  • Deep decay or infection inside the tooth

  • Broken tooth with pulp tissue exposure
