Frequently Asked Questions
What’s considered a dental emergency?
Severe tooth pain, a knocked-out or broken tooth, a dental abscess or facial swelling, uncontrolled bleeding, and a lost crown or filling are all dental emergencies that should be treated promptly.
When should I go to the ER instead of a dentist?
Go to the emergency room for swelling that affects breathing or swallowing, heavy uncontrolled bleeding, or trauma involving the jaw or head. For most tooth-specific problems, an emergency dentist is the right place.
