At Butler Hill Dental, we understand that dental emergencies can occur unexpectedly, causing significant discomfort and anxiety. Whether it’s a sudden toothache, a broken or knocked-out tooth, or a painful jaw, immediate attention is often crucial. That’s why our practice is dedicated to providing prompt and effective emergency dental services to address your needs without delay.
What Constitutes a Dental Emergency?
A dental emergency includes any situation that requires urgent attention from a dental professional. Here are some common examples of dental emergencies:
- 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 essential to seek emergency dental care if you experience any of the above situations or any other condition causing you pain or discomfort. Ignoring these symptoms can lead to more severe complications, including the potential loss of a tooth.
