A dental emergency is any oral problem that needs prompt attention to relieve pain, stop bleeding, save a tooth, or address infection. Common examples include a knocked-out or loosened tooth, a cracked or broken tooth, a lost filling or crown, severe toothache, swelling in the mouth or face, or trauma to the lips, gums, and jaw after an accident or sports injury. Not every ache is an emergency, but persistent pain, swelling, or bleeding is a sign to call us right away.
Some of the most preventable emergencies begin with untreated decay or gum problems. According to the CDC’s oral health resources, tooth decay and gum disease are among the most common chronic conditions, and small issues can escalate if left unaddressed. If you are unsure whether your situation counts as urgent, general guidance from the ADA’s MouthHealthy can help you recognize warning signs while you arrange to be seen. When in doubt, it is always safer to call.
Until you reach us, a few steps can help: rinse gently with warm water, use a cold compress on the outside of the cheek to ease swelling, and for a knocked-out tooth, handle it by the crown (not the root) and keep it moist. Avoid placing aspirin directly on the gums, which can irritate the tissue.
Many emergencies are resolved with treatment we provide in-house, so you can be cared for by a team you already trust:

What counts as a dental emergency?
Severe or persistent tooth pain, swelling, bleeding that will not stop, a knocked-out or broken tooth, and injuries to the mouth or jaw are all reasons to call promptly. If you are ever facing difficulty breathing or swallowing, uncontrolled bleeding, or a serious facial injury, seek emergency medical care first.
How much does emergency dental care cost?
Because every emergency is different, exact pricing depends on your specific situation and the treatment needed. We will review your options and provide clear pricing at your visit or consultation before any treatment begins, so there are no surprises.
