Call us immediately if you're experiencing any of the following:
Severe Toothache
Intense, persistent tooth pain that doesn't go away — often a sign of infection or abscess requiring urgent treatment.
Knocked-Out Tooth
Keep the tooth moist (in milk or saliva) and call us immediately. Time is critical for saving a knocked-out tooth.
Broken or Cracked Tooth
A fractured tooth can expose nerves and cause severe pain. We'll assess and repair it same-day when possible.
Lost Filling or Crown
A lost filling or crown leaves your tooth vulnerable. We'll replace it quickly to prevent further damage.
Dental Abscess
A painful infection that can spread if untreated. Signs include swelling, fever, and throbbing pain.
Soft Tissue Injuries
Cuts or lacerations to the gums, lips, or tongue from dental trauma that require prompt attention.
