FAQs: Emergency Dentist Services

Can you treat a dental emergency the same day?

What should I do if I knock out a tooth?

Gently rinse the tooth and place it in milk or saliva. Avoid touching the root. Call us immediately — timing is critical for saving the tooth.

Do you accept walk-in emergencies?

Please call ahead so we can prepare, but we do our best to accommodate urgent walk-ins.

Is a cracked tooth an emergency?

Yes. Cracks can lead to infection or tooth loss. Immediate evaluation allows us to save and restore the tooth whenever possible.
