Dental Emergencies
Dental emergencies happen when you least expect it–whether it’s a child who fell walking and chipped a tooth, or an adult who was injured in an accident–they’re never any fun to deal with.
What is a Dental Emergency?
First and foremost, if you experience a dental emergency with excessive pain or bleeding, visit your local emergency room as soon as possible. If your emergency doesn’t require immediate medical attention, call Douglas E. Oliver, DDS to get the appropriate advice and instructions.
Common dental emergencies we see often include:
- A knocked out tooth (baby or adult)
- Baby Tooth is Knocked Out
- A gum injury or laceration
- A chipped or cracked tooth
- Sudden abscess or infection
- Sudden extreme tooth pain
