Call us if you have a dental emergency

If you have trouble breathing or swallowing, heavy bleeding, or swelling that is spreading, go to the nearest emergency room or call 911.

Common dental emergencies

• A severe toothache
• A cracked, chipped or broken tooth
• A knocked-out tooth
• A lost filling or crown
• Swelling or pain in the gums or jaw

What to do until you see us

• Knocked-out tooth: hold it by the top, not the root. Rinse it gently, and keep it moist in milk or in your cheek. Call us right away.
• Broken tooth: rinse with warm water and save any pieces. A cold compress on the outside of your cheek can help with swelling.
• Lost crown: keep the crown and bring it with you.

Treatments that may help

Depending on what we find, treatment may include a root canal, a crown or a tooth extraction. We will explain your options before any treatment.
