Common Dental Emergencies Treated at SIA Dental

Tooth Pain and Infections

Severe or lingering tooth pain can signal infection, nerve exposure, or decay. We provide targeted treatments such as fillings, root canal therapy, or antibiotics to relieve pain and eliminate the source of infection.

Broken or Knocked-Out Teeth

Accidents happen. Whether you’ve chipped a tooth or had one knocked out entirely, emergency dental care can often save and restore the tooth. Immediate treatment increases the chance of reattachment and reduces complications. Our emergency dental services are designed to offer peace of mind when the unexpected happens.

Soft Tissue Injuries

Cuts or injuries to the tongue, cheeks, gums, or lips may bleed heavily and become infected if untreated. We provide professional care to manage bleeding, assess damage, and reduce the risk of further issues.

Frequently Asked Questions

What Should I Do if I Knock Out a Tooth?
  • Handle the tooth by the crown (top), not the root
  • Rinse gently under cold water if dirty
  • Try to reinsert it into the socket, or store it in milk or saliva
  • Seek emergency dental care within 30 minutes for the best chance of saving the tooth
Not necessarily. At SIA Dental, we offer clear quotes and affordable pricing. The cost of emergency dental care depends on the situation, and we always explain fees before proceeding with treatment.
As soon as possible. Delaying treatment can worsen the condition and reduce the chance of a full recovery. If you’re facing a dental emergency, prompt action is essential.

Reserved Emergency Appointments
We reserve dedicated time slots specifically for emergency dental cases. While we strive to accommodate all urgent situations, availability may vary depending on the day and demand.

Avoiding Future Emergencies
Many dental emergencies can be prevented through routine check-ups and early intervention. Regular general dental appointments are recommended to help maintain oral health and avoid unexpected problems.

A cold compress and over-the-counter pain relief can ease discomfort, but toothaches usually indicate that something needs attention. Give us a call so we can investigate and treat the cause properly.
