Is This a Dental Emergency?

🦷 Severe Toothache

Sudden or persistent tooth pain can indicate infection, decay, or a cracked tooth. Don't wait β€” call us for same-day relief.

πŸ’₯ Broken or Cracked Tooth

A chipped or fractured tooth needs prompt attention to prevent further damage and potential infection. Bring any tooth fragments if possible.

πŸͺ Knocked-Out Tooth

Act fast β€” if a tooth is knocked out, keep it moist and call us immediately. Reimplantation is most successful within 30–60 minutes.

πŸ‘‘ Lost Crown or Filling

A lost restoration exposes sensitive tooth structure and can cause pain. We can often replace or re-cement it the same day.

🦠 Dental Abscess

An abscess is a serious infection that can spread rapidly. Signs include severe pain, swelling, and fever β€” seek care immediately.

🩸 Soft Tissue Injury

Lacerations or injuries to lips, cheeks, tongue, or gums that don't stop bleeding need prompt dental or emergency care.

What to Do in a Dental Emergency

Step 1: Call us immediately. Call (303) 456-7890 and explain your situation. We'll advise you on immediate steps and get you in as quickly as possible β€” often within hours.

For a knocked-out tooth: Handle the tooth by the crown (not the root), rinse gently without scrubbing, and keep it moist in milk or between your cheek and gum. Get to us within 30–60 minutes for the best chance of saving it.

For a dental abscess: Do NOT apply aspirin directly to the area. You can take over-the-counter pain relief and rinse with warm salt water, but seek dental care immediately as infections can be dangerous.

For broken or cracked teeth: Rinse your mouth with warm water, apply a cold compress to your face to reduce swelling, and avoid chewing on that side until you see us.
