What Is Considered a Dental Emergency?
A dental emergency is a problem that may require prompt assessment to relieve significant pain, control bleeding, manage swelling or infection, or reduce the risk of further damage. Examples can include severe or persistent tooth pain, facial or gum swelling, a knocked-out or badly broken tooth, uncontrolled bleeding, or a dental injury.
Other problems, such as a lost filling, damaged crown or chipped tooth, may also need timely care depending on your symptoms and the extent of the damage. If you are unsure whether your situation is urgent, contact U Smile Dentistry so the dental team can help determine the appropriate next step.
When to Contact Us for Urgent Dental Care
Severe or persistent tooth pain may be a sign of a problem that needs prompt dental assessment. Contact U Smile Dentistry so the dental team can evaluate your symptoms and recommend the appropriate next step.
Swelling in the gums, face or jaw can sometimes be associated with a dental infection or another urgent problem. Contact the clinic for guidance, especially if the swelling is increasing or accompanied by significant pain.
A knocked-out tooth or a tooth that is badly broken should be assessed as soon as possible. Contact U Smile Dentistry promptly so the dental team can advise you on what to do next and whether urgent treatment is needed.
A lost filling, crown or other dental restoration may leave the tooth sensitive or vulnerable to further damage. Contact the clinic so the dental team can assess the problem and advise you on the appropriate timing for care.
If a tooth, gum or other part of your mouth has been injured, a dental assessment can help determine the extent of the damage and the appropriate treatment. Contact U Smile Dentistry for guidance on the next step.
Bleeding from the mouth that does not stop may need urgent assessment. Contact U Smile Dentistry for guidance, and seek emergency medical care if the bleeding is severe or you are having difficulty breathing or swallowing.
Some dental problems are urgent, while others can safely wait for a regular appointment. If you are unsure, contact U Smile Dentistry and describe your symptoms so the dental team can help you understand the appropriate next step.

What to Do Before Your Emergency Dental Visit
Before your visit, avoid putting aspirin or other medication directly on the tooth or gums. If a tooth has been knocked out, handle it by the crown rather than the root and contact the clinic promptly for guidance. For swelling, bleeding or dental trauma, describe your symptoms clearly when you call so the dental team can advise you on the appropriate next step.
