Dental Emergency FAQ’s

What should I do if my tooth is knocked out?

Handle the tooth by the crown (not the root), rinse it gently without scrubbing, and try to place it back in the socket. If that's not possible, keep it in milk or saliva and seek immediate dental care. Time is crucial for saving a knocked-out tooth.

How quickly can I be seen for an emergency?

We reserve time in our daily schedule for emergency patients and make every effort to see you the same day. Our team will assess your situation and provide appropriate guidance until you can reach our office.

Will my insurance cover emergency treatment?

Most dental insurance plans provide coverage for emergency care. Our team will work with your insurance provider to maximize your benefits and discuss payment options for any remaining balance.
