FAQS
EMERGENCY DENTAL CARE
WHAT HAPPENS DURING AN EMERGENCY DENTISTRY APPOINTMENT?​
​
We begin with an exam and X-rays to diagnose the problem. Our goal is to relieve pain, address the immediate issue, and stabilize your oral health. Treatments may include a root canal, filling, crown, restoration repair, or in some cases, an extraction. Some issues can be fully treated in one visit, while others may require follow-up care.
​
WHAT CAN I DO TO MANAGE PAIN BEFORE MY APPOINTMENT?
​
Over-the-counter pain relievers, cold compresses on the outside of the face, or topical oral pain relief gels may help reduce pain and swelling. However, these are temporary solutions and you still need professional dental treatment to resolve the underlying problem.
​​
CAN DENTAL EMERGENCIES BY PREVENTED?
​
While some emergencies are unavoidable, many can be prevented by maintaining good oral hygiene, wearing a mouthguard during sports, avoiding chewing on ice or hard objects, and keeping up with routine dental checkups.
