Unless the problem is life-threatening, it’s generally better to call your dentist for help during a dental emergency rather than an emergency room. That’s because a dentist is much more likely to have the training and equipment necessary to properly treat the issue.
If you have severe tooth pain, noticeable dental damage, or another emergency situation, call our office immediately. We’ll schedule a same-day appointment whenever possible, and our team can give you advice on keeping the situation under control at home. Don’t delay getting care; dental emergencies only become more severe over time, and waiting too long will most likely result in an even worse situation.
