For starters, anything that is causing you the type of pain or discomfort that you feel you cannot withstand any longer qualifies. Anything that compromises the health of your tooth or other oral tissue (and without immediate care, serious consequences will arise) qualifies. If you are dealing with a sudden trauma like a broken tooth, dislodged tooth, apparent infection or abscess, then it qualifies.
Just remember, if it can’t wait, call us and we will schedule an emergency dental care visit for you. Note: If your problem includes blood loss or you believe your life is in danger, you will need to bypass our practice and instead contact 911 or make it to your nearest ER.
