Pain or Suspected Infection

This is the stuff of nightmares! Dental pain is what causes fear and reluctance to visit the dentist. If you are experiencing pain, please give us a call. We can help! The solution may be simpler than you think.

Broken Teeth

Broken teeth may be the result of trauma, genetics, diet or neglect. Ignoring broken teeth may result in further breakdown, nerve damage or tooth loss. We are here to help. We will evaluate the teeth, give you all of your options for repair and return you to good looks and function.

Facial Trauma

Having an accident that causes dental pain can be scary. There may be a number of issues to address. We are here to help. If you have suffered injury or an accident, please advise us immediately and we will ensure you receive appropriate emergency care.

Avulsed Tooth

One of the most traumatic injuries in dentistry is knocking a tooth out. An avulsed tooth requires immediate treatment to save the tooth. Pick up the tooth by the crown (not the roots) and gently rinse it off with clean water or milk. Do not scrub it or use soap. Place the tooth back into its socket if you are able to. If not, place it in a glass of milk or saline solution, or in your mouth beside your cheek so that saliva may cover it. See the dentist immediately. Care within the first 30 minutes yields the best results.
