When to Seek Emergency Dental Care
If you experience any of the following, please call Midtown Dental right away:
- Severe Toothache: Persistent, throbbing tooth pain that doesn't subside with over-the-counter pain relievers can indicate an infection or other serious oral health concern. Our team will provide the relief you need at your emergency exam.
- Chipped, Cracked, or Broken Tooth: Even minor chips can sometimes expose sensitive areas, leading to pain or further damage if not treated.
- Knocked-Out (Avulsed) Tooth: A knocked-out tooth is a true dental emergency. Taking quick action can sometimes save the tooth.
- Lost Dental Filling or Crown: While not always painful, a lost restoration leaves the tooth vulnerable to decay and sensitivity.
- Dental Abscess or Swelling: A pimple-like bump on your gums, facial swelling, or tenderness can indicate a serious infection that requires immediate attention.
- Oral Injury: Lacerations, punctures, or tears to the soft tissues like the lips, cheeks, tongue, or gums will require prompt emergency care.
Your Emergency Dental Exam
When you contact Midtown Dental with an emergency, our team will gather important information about your symptoms, offer immediate advice, and do our best to get you in for a same-day appointment.
If you’re feeling anxious or in significant pain, we also offer IV sedation to help you stay calm and comfortable throughout your visit. Our goal is to make your emergency care as smooth and stress-free as possible.
