What to do in a dental emergency

Don’t tolerate discomfort! Pain is your body’s signal that something isn’t right. If you’re uneasy or worried about a new sensation in your mouth, contact us promptly to arrange a visit.

Meanwhile, consider these tips for dental pain relief:

  • Follow guidelines for over-the-counter pain relievers
  • Gently rinse your mouth with warm saltwater
  • Steer clear of chewing in the affected area and consuming hard, sharp, or sticky foods.
PRICING

How much does emergency dental care cost?

Your emergency visit is priced based on the needed treatment. For business hour emergencies, we can help estimate your out-of-pocket cost based on your insurance plan. This is an estimate and not a guarantee of the exact final cost. We are unable to provide cost estimates during after-hour emergency appointments.

Payment Options

Although we are in-network with many insurance companies, we are a fee-for-service practice. Our office will bill all other providers. Cash, check, and credit card payments are always accepted.

What is the most common dental emergency?

The most common concerns patients see us for are toothaches — that’s because pain is your body’s way of signaling something isn’t right! Under the surface, you may be dealing with decay, gum disease, cracked or worn teeth, or an abscess. We also often help those who have lost or broken a tooth.

What are the signs of an infected tooth?

A few common symptoms of a tooth infection include:

– Throbbing toothache
– Lingering tooth sensitivity
– Sore and sensitive jawbone
– Sensitivity to hot and cold
– Pain or tingling when biting

Will my tooth need to be pulled?

Not necessarily. Our dentists will conduct a thorough examination and diagnosis to evaluate the best course of action — whether that’s a filling, crown, root canal, gum disease treatment, or something else!

Will a toothache go away on its own?

If you’re feeling uncomfortable, you should always visit a professional…even if the pain goes away after a few days, It’s likely there’s an issue hidden under the surface and the pain will return even worse than before.
