Emergency Dental Treatment

Severe Tooth Pain

Persistent toothaches can indicate underlying dental issues such as tooth decay, infection, or abscess.

Broken/Chipped Teeth

Accidents or trauma can cause teeth to become broken, chipped, or dislodged.

Lost Fillings/Crowns

If you’ve lost a filling or crown, it’s important to seek immediate treatment to prevent further damage to your tooth.

Dental Trauma

Sports injuries, falls, or accidents can result in dental trauma, including fractured teeth, soft tissue injuries, or dislodged teeth.

Emergency Dental Treatment

Whether you’re experiencing severe tooth pain, a broken tooth, or a dental injury, Divine Smiles Dental care team is here to help you find relief and restore your smile.

What should I do if I knock out a tooth?

Gently rinse the tooth without touching the root, place it back in the socket if possible, or store it in milk or saliva. Call us immediately—time is critical for saving the tooth.

Can I go to the ER for dental emergencies?

Hospitals can help with severe pain or infections, but they usually don’t have dental tools or dentists. It’s best to contact an emergency dentist first unless it’s life-threatening.

What if I have a dental emergency after hours?

Call our office—we often have after-hours support or on-call dentists to help you get the care you need as quickly as possible.

Will my insurance cover emergency treatment?

Most dental insurance plans cover at least part of emergency care. We’ll help you understand your coverage and provide treatment options that fit your needs.

What if I have swelling in my face or jaw?

Facial swelling may indicate a serious infection. Contact us right away, as untreated infections can spread quickly and may become dangerous if not addressed promptly.

Can I wait until morning if the pain isn’t that bad?

Mild discomfort can often wait, but if the pain worsens, disrupts sleep, or is accompanied by swelling or fever, it’s best to seek care right away to prevent complications.
