What Constitutes a Dental Emergency?

A dental emergency can be any situation that requires immediate attention from a dental professional. Some common examples of dental emergencies include:

Severe toothache
Knocked-out tooth
Chipped or broken tooth
Lost filling or crown
Abscess or infection
Soft tissue injury (e.g. bitten tongue or lip)

It’s important to seek emergency dental care in the case of any of the above, or any other condition that is causing you pain or discomfort. Ignoring a dental emergency can lead to further damage and potentially, the loss of a tooth.

  Everyone is a complete pleasure to be around. They explain all that they are doing and make sure you are comfortable. I came to them with a mouth full of problems and I’m feeling much better about my teeth. It’s taken some time to get where we are at. But it took time for me to get my teeth where they were. The only thing I wish I had been better at my cleaning. They can’t fix stupid

  Our family switched over to North Family Dentistry over a year ago.  My whole family, husband down to our 7 year old daughter, are patients here and have had a great experience.  It feels like a small town family dentistry.  We have our twice a year cleaning, I take my son for extra cleanings every couple of months due to some sensory issues with brushing ( he also is a talker when he is nervous) they are fantastically patient and kind.  I’ve also had professional whitening with them and the experience was made clear and I had great results.  Front staff are wonderful and feel like a friendly exchange instead of a drs office.  I refused fluoride a few times and now they always go out of their way to ask.
