Your Emergency Visit at Perfected Smiles
We understand that a dental emergency is a stressful experience. From the moment you call, our team’s priority is to get you comfortable and see you as quickly as possible. During your emergency appointment, Dr. Jason Schepis or Dr. Ryan Maher will first focus on alleviating your immediate pain. We will then perform a focused examination, often using digital X-rays to quickly diagnose the problem. Once we understand the issue, we will clearly explain your treatment options and provide immediate care to resolve the emergency.
What to Do Before You Arrive
Taking the right steps before you get to our office can make a significant difference in the outcome.
For a Knocked-Out Tooth: Hold the tooth by the crown (top), not the root. Gently rinse it with milk or water. If you can, place it back in its socket. If not, transport it in a small container of milk.
For a Severe Toothache: Rinse your mouth with warm salt water. Apply a cold compress to your cheek to reduce swelling. Do not place aspirin directly on the tooth.
For a Broken Tooth: Save any pieces you can find. Rinse your mouth with warm water and apply a cold compress to the outside of the area.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
1. Should I go to the emergency room or the dentist? For most dental emergencies, including toothaches, broken teeth, and knocked-out teeth, a dentist is your best choice. Hospital ERs are not typically equipped with the tools or expertise for dental care and can often only provide pain medication. If you have a life-threatening injury, uncontrolled bleeding, or severe swelling that affects your breathing, go to the nearest ER immediately.
2. How much does an emergency dental visit cost? The cost of an emergency visit varies depending on the treatment needed. Our priority is to get you out of pain. Before we perform any treatment, our team will provide a clear breakdown of costs and discuss your payment and insurance options with you.
3. Do you accept walk-ins for emergencies? While we will always do our best to accommodate walk-in emergencies, we strongly recommend calling our office first. This allows our team to prepare for your arrival and provide instructions, ensuring you can be seen as quickly as possible with minimal wait time.
4. What if my emergency happens after hours? Please call our main office number. Our after-hours message will provide instructions for how to reach our on-call team for assistance with true dental emergencies.
