Do I Need Urgent Dental Treatment?

There are an array of circumstances that qualify as a dental emergency. We will talk with you to determine the severity of your emergency and schedule an appointment for the earliest available opening. Our team will provide tips and information to minimize the pain until you arrive at our office. Here are some of the most common emergency dental situations:

Broken teeth
Bleeding gums
Pain in the tooth or jaw
Missing or broken crown
Broken veneer
Cracked tooth
Swollen gums
Avulsed (knocked-out) tooth

We offer an emergency exam, complete with x-rays and a consultation, for a flat fee to equip you with the answers and resources you need to make a wise decision regarding your treatment plan.

How To Care for a Knocked-Out Tooth

If you or a loved one has a tooth knocked out, then it's important to know what steps to take to ensure the best chances to preserve your natural tooth and return it to its socket. You must seek a dentist to examine your gums and the tooth to verify that it can be restored, but there are things you can do from the moment the tooth is avulsed until you see our dentist.

Locate the missing tooth and gently pick it up by the crown (the part of your tooth that is normally visible) and avoid touching the root of the tooth. Carefully rinse the tooth in clean water and place it in a glass of milk or salt water. If you can place the tooth back in its socket, you may do so, but you must be careful and don't try to force your tooth back into the gums.

Contact our office immediately, and we will schedule an appointment as soon as possible. Once you arrive at our dental office, we will verify if the tooth may be safely placed back in its socket. If your tooth is too damaged to restore, we'll discuss your options and craft a treatment plan that fits your needs and smile goals.

Urgent Dentistry FAQs

When you're faced with a dental emergency, it's natural to have a lot of questions. We encourage you to share your questions and concerns and we are happy to provide the answers you need to feel confident in your treatment plan. Here are some of the most common questions we receive about emergency dentistry.

Is it an emergency if my tooth turns grey?

Yes. When a tooth turns grey or becomes darker, it can be a sign that the tooth is infected or dead. It's important to visit our office as soon as possible to determine if the tooth can be saved and to stop the spread of infection to your neighboring teeth.

Should I go to the hospital if I have a dental emergency?

If you have a dental emergency, it's best to visit our emergency dentist. If the hospital does not have a dentist on staff, they will often send you to a dental team who performs emergency dental care. You can skip the wait and come directly to our team for your dental emergencies in Coconut Creek.

Is a toothache a dental emergency?

A toothache may constitute a dental emergency because it can be an indication of an infection that requires medical intervention. If you have pain in your tooth, jaws, or gums, contact our team, and we will schedule an appointment to address the problem and get you out of pain.
