How We Can Help
If you're experiencing any of the following, please don't hesitate to call us immediately:

What to Do During Your Emergency
While you’re getting in touch with us, here are a few simple steps you can take to manage the situation and protect your tooth:
- For a Knocked-Out Tooth: Gently rinse the tooth with water, avoiding the root. If possible, try to place it back in the socket without forcing it. If not, transport it in a small container of milk and call us immediately.
- For a Severe Toothache: Rinse your mouth with warm salt water to clean the area. You can use a cold compress on the outside of your cheek to reduce swelling. Do not place aspirin directly on the tooth or gums.
- For a Broken or Chipped Tooth: Rinse your mouth with warm water and save any pieces of the tooth you can find. Apply a cold compress to the affected area to minimize swelling.
