Not every chipped tooth needs to be seen at midnight, but some dental situations should be treated as urgent. If you are in significant pain, have swelling, have a tooth that has been knocked out, or notice signs of infection, contact Wall Street Dental Group right away. Quick action often preserves teeth, shortens recovery, and prevents more complex treatment later.
Pain that wakes you from sleep, throbbing discomfort that lingers after hot or cold, or pain when biting can indicate deep decay or an infection inside the tooth. These concerns rarely improve without care. Facial swelling, puffy gums, or a bump that drains fluid near a tooth may signal an abscess. An untreated abscess can spread and become serious, so do not wait.
Dental injuries from sports or accidents also deserve fast attention. A cracked or broken tooth can expose the inner layers of the tooth to bacteria. If a permanent tooth is knocked out completely, time matters. The sooner we see you, the better the chance we can save it.
Lost fillings, broken crowns, and loose bridges are not always true emergencies, but they can lead to sensitivity and further damage if left alone. Call our office and we will help you decide whether you need a same-day visit or the next available appointment.
If you have heavy bleeding that will not slow, swelling that affects breathing, or trauma involving the head or jaw, call your local emergency number or go to the nearest hospital emergency department first. Your safety always comes before dental repair. We can coordinate follow-up care once you are stable.
