Common dental emergencies we treat
We're equipped to handle severe toothaches and sensitivity, facial swelling and dental infections, broken, chipped, or cracked teeth, knocked-out or loose teeth, lost fillings, crowns, or bridges, abscesses and gum infections, broken dentures or restorations, wisdom tooth pain, and dental trauma from sports or accidents.
Fast relief for pain & swelling
Our first priority is getting you comfortable. After a thorough examination, we'll determine the source of your symptoms and explain all available treatment options. Depending on your condition, treatment may include medication, drainage of an infection, root canal therapy, extraction, or a temporary restoration until definitive treatment can be completed. If swelling or infection is present, we'll act promptly to control it and help prevent it from spreading.
Comfortable care with sedation options
Many patients seek emergency care while already anxious or in significant pain. We offer several comfort options to help you relax during treatment, including local anesthesia for profound numbness, nitrous oxide (laughing gas), and oral conscious sedation for patients with moderate dental anxiety. Our goal is to make your emergency visit as comfortable and stress-free as possible.
Advanced technology for more accurate care
Unlike traditional dental X-rays, our 3D Cone Beam CT scanner provides detailed three-dimensional images of your teeth, jaws, nerves, and surrounding structures, letting us accurately diagnose hidden infections, fractures, root problems, and impacted teeth that may not be visible on standard radiographs. When it offers a clinical advantage, we also incorporate advanced Fotona laser technology for minimally invasive treatment — managing certain infections, treating soft-tissue conditions, assisting with periodontal therapy, and improving healing while minimizing discomfort, bleeding, and recovery time.
Same-day emergency appointments
If you're experiencing dental pain or believe you have a dental emergency, don't wait. Early treatment often leads to simpler procedures, faster relief, and better long-term outcomes. Call our office as soon as possible, and our team will do everything we can to see you the same day.
