What is a Dental Emergency?

A dental emergency is any situation involving sudden pain, injury, or damage to your teeth, gums, or mouth that requires immediate attention. Ignoring a dental emergency can lead to more serious problems down the road, so it’s essential to seek care as soon as possible.

Common dental emergencies we treat include:

Severe Toothache: Persistent or intense pain in a tooth could indicate an infection, abscess, or decay that needs immediate attention.
Broken or Cracked Teeth: Whether from an accident or biting something hard, broken or cracked teeth can cause pain and sensitivity and must be repaired to avoid further damage.
Knocked-Out Tooth: If a tooth is knocked out due to injury, immediate treatment can increase the chances of saving it.
Chipped or Fractured Teeth: Chipped teeth, though sometimes minor, can expose the tooth's inner layers to damage and infection if not treated promptly.
Lost Fillings or Crowns: If a filling or crown falls out, the underlying tooth is left exposed and vulnerable to decay and further damage.
Abscesses or Infections: Infections can cause swelling, pain, and even fever. Abscesses are serious and need immediate treatment to prevent the infection from spreading.
Gum or Soft Tissue Injuries: Cuts, lacerations, or punctures to the gums, cheeks, or lips need urgent care to prevent infection and ensure proper healing.

If you’re experiencing any of these symptoms, Espire Dental Roxborough is here to provide immediate relief. Don’t wait—call us as soon as possible for fast, compassionate care.

What should I do if I have a dental emergency after hours?

Call us immediately if you experience a dental emergency after our office hours. We’ll provide instructions on managing the emergency and arrange for prompt care as soon as possible. If it’s after hours, leave us a voicemail, and we’ll return your call shortly.

How soon should I see a dentist for a knocked-out tooth?

You should see a dentist immediately—ideally within 30 minutes of losing the tooth. The faster you seek treatment, the better your chances of saving the tooth.

Can a broken or cracked tooth be fixed in one visit?

In many cases, yes! Depending on the extent of the damage, we can often repair a cracked or broken tooth with bonding, a filling, or a temporary solution during your emergency visit. In some cases, a crown or more extensive treatment may be required.

How can I prevent dental emergencies?

Good oral hygiene, regular dental visits, and wearing a mouthguard during sports can help prevent dental emergencies. However, accidents happen, and we’re here to help if they do.

Will my dental insurance cover emergency treatment?

Most dental insurance plans cover emergency treatments. We’ll work with your insurance provider to ensure you get the necessary care while maximizing your benefits.

What if my dental emergency isn’t painful?

Even if you’re not in pain, issues like a broken tooth, lost filling, or damage to your gums still require immediate attention. Leaving these problems untreated can lead to more severe issues down the road.
