Frequently Asked Questions About Emergency Dental Care

What should I do if I notice facial swelling?

Facial swelling can signal a serious infection. Contact our office immediately so our dentists can assess your symptoms. If you have trouble breathing or swallowing, seek urgent medical care right away.

Do you accept walk-in dental emergencies?

We do our best to see walk-in emergencies when possible. Calling first helps us prepare for your arrival and may shorten your wait, but if you cannot call, you should still come in during office hours.

Will antibiotics alone fix a dental infection?

Antibiotics may reduce infection and swelling, but they usually do not solve the underlying dental problem. Our dentists will examine the area, recommend treatment and decide whether antibiotics are needed as part of your care.

Can I receive same-day treatment for my emergency?

In many cases, yes. We often provide same-day pain relief, temporary repairs or definitive treatment. If full care is not possible that day, we stabilize the problem and schedule follow-up as soon as possible.
