What Should You Do During a Dental Emergency?
The first step is to contact our office as soon as possible. Prompt treatment often improves outcomes and may help save a damaged tooth.
While waiting to be seen, you may be able to manage discomfort by rinsing with warm water, applying a cold compress to reduce swelling, and avoiding chewing on the affected area. If a tooth has been knocked out, handling it carefully and seeking immediate care can improve the chances of saving it.
