Frequently Asked Questions
What counts as a dental emergency?
Severe pain, swelling, a knocked-out or broken tooth, uncontrolled bleeding, or a lost restoration all warrant a same-day call to our office.
What should I do if my tooth gets knocked out?
Handle it by the crown (not the root), rinse gently if dirty, and try to reinsert it or keep it in milk. Get to our office as quickly as possible — ideally within an hour.
Do you see emergency patients after hours?
[Confirm current after-hours emergency policy/on-call procedure with our front office.]
