(905) 895-8031What Counts as a Dental Emergency?
When in doubt, call us. It's always better to get checked than to wait through pain or risk a worsening situation.
Severe Tooth Pain
Intense or throbbing pain can signal infection, abscess, or a cracked tooth. Call us immediately.
Knocked-Out Tooth
Time is critical. Keep the tooth moist and call us right away. We may be able to reimplant it.
Broken or Chipped Tooth
Save any fragments if possible. We can restore your tooth with bonding, a crown, or other solutions.
Dental Abscess
Swelling, fever, and persistent pain near a tooth can indicate a serious infection requiring urgent care.
Lost Filling or Crown
Exposed teeth are sensitive and vulnerable. We offer same-day fixes to protect your tooth.
Soft Tissue Injury
Lacerations to lips, cheeks, or gums need prompt attention to prevent infection and aid healing.
Children get dental emergencies too, and our Children's Dentistry team knows how to keep a frightened child calm.

Treatment & Recovery
We perform emergency treatment and create a complete recovery plan to restore your oral health fully.
What to Do While You Wait
These are general first aid basics. When you call, our team will give you instructions for your situation.
- Knocked-out tooth: pick it up by the crown, not the root, and do not scrub it. Keep it moist and bring it with you.
- Toothache: rinse your mouth with warm water, gently clean between the teeth to remove trapped food, and hold a cold compress against your cheek.
- Broken or chipped tooth: rinse your mouth, save any fragments and use a cold compress to reduce swelling.
- Lost crown or filling: keep the crown if you can and avoid chewing on that side.
- Swelling with fever: call us right away. If you have trouble breathing or swallowing, or a serious injury to your head or face, call 911 or go to the nearest emergency room.
