How We Treat Dental Emergencies

Treating your dental emergency requires a few essential steps. When calling to tell us about your injury, a member of our team will offer tips to control your pain and minimize additional harm. We will find the best time for you to come in and see one of our dentists. Once you arrive for your appointment, we will take digital X-rays and examine your mouth to determine the location and severity of the problem area.
Each case is different, so we must complete a thorough evaluation before drafting a treatment plan and moving forward. We’ll collect X-rays and do an oral exam to determine how to treat your oral injury before presenting our recommendation(s) to you. If you agree, we will make sure you are no longer in any pain, whether we provide treatment the same day or at a later date.
