Frequently Asked Questions

What should I do if I lose a dental filling or crown?
If you lose a dental filling or crown, keep the area clean and avoid chewing on that side of your mouth. Contact our office promptly for an appointment to replace it. In the meantime, over-the-counter dental cement can temporarily protect the exposed area from discomfort or sensitivity.
If you experience a dental emergency after hours, call our office to see if we offer an emergency contact option. For serious injuries, like facial trauma or excessive bleeding, visit an emergency room immediately. Our dentist and team can assist with follow-up care when the office reopens.
For minor toothache relief, try rinsing with warm salt water and using an over-the-counter pain reliever. Avoid using aspirin directly on the tooth or gum as it can cause irritation. Schedule an appointment with our dentist as soon as possible to diagnose and treat the underlying cause.
Stay calm and assess the injury. If a baby or permanent tooth is knocked out, try to locate it and keep it moist. Call our office promptly for guidance. Our team is equipped to provide compassionate, child-centered care for a wide range of dental emergencies. For serious injuries, like facial trauma or excessive bleeding, visit an emergency room immediately.
