What Is Considered a Dental Emergency?
If you’re experiencing significant pain, swelling, bleeding, or damage to a tooth, it’s best to contact our office as soon as possible.
Common dental emergencies we treat include:
Severe tooth pain: Persistent or worsening pain may be caused by decay, infection, or damage inside the tooth. Treatment may include a filling, root canal therapy, or extraction depending on the cause.
Broken, chipped, or cracked teeth: Damaged teeth may be repaired with bonding, fillings, crowns, veneers, or other restorative treatment.
Knocked-out teeth: A permanent tooth that has been completely knocked out requires immediate care. The sooner it is treated, the better the chance of saving it.
Lost fillings or crowns: Missing dental work can expose the tooth and lead to sensitivity or additional damage.
Dental abscess or swelling: Severe throbbing pain, facial swelling, fever, or a bump on the gums can be signs of infection and should be evaluated promptly.
Broken braces or wires: Loose brackets and sharp wires can irritate the mouth and may require orthodontic repair.
We also take pride in serving our community by making high-quality dental care accessible to patients from all walks of life. Through flexible financing and compassionate service, we strive to ensure that everyone receives the care they deserve. At Elite Dental Associates, we are more than just a team.
