Urgent Dental Care, Today
Whether it is a severe toothache, a knocked-out tooth or an injury, we are here. Our team delivers prompt, effective treatment to relieve the pain and deal with what caused it — and we offer walk-in availability precisely because emergencies do not book ahead.
Signs You Need to Be Seen Now
- Knocked-Out Tooth Acting immediately can often save a dislodged tooth. Keep it moist and come straight in.
- Severe Toothache Intense pain often signals an infection or an abscess that needs urgent treatment.
- Infection or Abscess Difficulty eating, speaking or breathing may indicate a severe infection requiring immediate attention.
- Exposed Nerves Extremely painful, and not something to wait out.
- Jaw Swelling Swelling in the jaw can indicate a serious infection that needs treating urgently.
- Lost Filling or Crown Left open, the tooth underneath deteriorates quickly.
If you are unsure whether what you have counts as an emergency, call us and describe it. We would rather tell you it can wait until Tuesday than have you sit on an abscess.
While You Wait to Be Seen
These will not fix the problem, but they will make the wait more bearable.
- Take ibuprofen for pain management
- Rinse your mouth with warm salt water
- Use a cold compress on the outside of the affected area
- Avoid benzocaine products unless we have told you otherwise

Emergency Dentistry FAQ
- How do I know if I need emergency dental care?
- If you have severe pain, swelling, or trauma to your teeth, gums or jaw, seek urgent care. A knocked-out tooth, an intense toothache and significant swelling all qualify. If you are unsure, call us and describe it.
- Do you offer emergency tooth extractions?
- Yes. Where a tooth is severely damaged or infected we can extract it to relieve the pain and prevent the problem spreading.
- Can I walk in?
- Yes. We welcome walk-ins for emergency dental care — sudden pain, a broken tooth, or anything that needs seeing today.
- How quickly can I be seen?
- We prioritize emergencies and aim to see patients as soon as possible. Call us or come into the office.
- What should I do with a knocked-out tooth?
- Handle it by the crown rather than the root, keep it moist, and get to us immediately. Acting quickly is often what determines whether the tooth can be saved.
- Will I need sedation?
- Not usually, but it is available if you want it. Anxiety is common in an emergency, and we offer nitrous oxide, oral sedation and IV sedation.
