FAQs About Dental Emergencies
What should I do if I knock out a tooth?
Gently rinse the tooth without scrubbing, place it in milk or saline, and come to the office as soon as possible.
Is a chipped tooth a dental emergency?
It depends. Minor chips may not require immediate care, but pain or sharp edges often do. It's best to call us for guidance.
Can I walk in for emergency dental care?
We encourage you to call ahead for the fastest service, but walk-ins are accepted at all locations when possible.
How can I prevent dental emergencies?
Regular checkups and using mouthguards during sports can reduce the risk.
