The Benefits of Emergency Dentistry
Relieve Your Pain
Experiencing pain is an indication that something is amiss, and you do not have to tolerate it.

Prevent Further Complications

What do I do in a Dental Emergency?
Keep Calm & Reduce Bleeding
Experiencing a dental injury can quickly turn a normal day into a painful and stressful situation. Remember to remain calm and know that your dentist is available to assist you. Take a moment to breathe deeply and evaluate the situation to help make informed decisions during an emergency. If your injury is causing any bleeding, apply pressure with a clean strip of gauze to the affected area. Keep the gauze in place until the bleeding stops or until you can get to our office for further assistance.
Control Swelling & Pain
You can temporarily relieve pain or swelling with over-the-counter pain medication such as ibuprofen or acetaminophen. Avoid blood-thinning medications like aspirin, as they can interfere with clotting and blood flow control. You can also use a cold compress, like an ice pack, on the cheek or lip near the affected area for pain relief.
