Know What to Do When an Emergency Strikes

We can treat many types of dental emergencies here at Sabal Dental. No matter what kind of dental crisis you’re experiencing, we can provide treatment to stop your pain and save your smile. Below are a few types of emergencies that we see often, along with important steps to take before you’re seen in our office:

  • Toothache – First rinse your mouth with warm water, then apply an ice pack or cold compress to your cheek to help with pain and swelling.
  • Loose Or Dislodged Tooth – Try to put the tooth back in place if possible, being careful not to exert too much pressure on the tooth.
  • Knocked-Out Tooth – Retrieve the tooth by the crown (top part), being careful not to touch the roots. Place it in a container of salt water, milk, or saliva to help preserve it. See us asap for possible reinsertion.
  • Broken Tooth – Gather any pieces and bring them with you to your appointment.
  • Soft Tissue Injury – Use a small piece of gauze or moistened tea bag to help stop bleeding from your cheek, tongue, lips, or gums. If bleeding doesn’t stop in a few minutes, head to the nearest urgent treatment center or emergency room.

Common Questions About Dental Emergencies

Can you help with my dental emergency?

Yes, we can help you with any kind of dental emergency you might be facing. Over our long history, we’ve treated thousands of dental crises and helped those patients feel better while saving their smiles at the same time. We encourage you to call us as soon as possible so that we can get you into our office quickly and provide you with the help you need.

What if I have a dental emergency without insurance?

Although you may not have dental insurance, we’ll still gladly treat you. A lack of insurance shouldn’t keep you from getting the dental care you need in an emergency situation. We do offer several flexible payment options, plus we’re partnered with CareCredit, a third-party health care financing company that offers zero- and low-interest payment plans.

What will you do for a dental emergency?

When you come in for an emergency visit, we’ll first assess your situation to determine what treatment we need to provide. We will thoroughly examine your mouth, and we may take a set of digital X-rays as well. Our first priority will be getting you out of pain so you can relax. If necessary, we’ll lay out your treatment options and help you decide what’s best for your needs and budget.
