Can Smiles Help?

Identify your emergency. We provide rapid, expert intervention for all urgent dental conditions to relieve your pain and protect your oral health.

Severe/Persistent Toothache

Tooth pain can be caused by decay, infection, a cracked tooth, or inflammation inside the tooth. Our emergency dentists examine the cause and determine whether treatment such as a filling, root canal, or extraction is appropriate.

When to call →

Swelling / Abscess

Swelling around a tooth or gum can signal an infection and should be evaluated promptly. Our emergency dentists identify the source of the infection, help relieve the immediate problem, and recommend appropriate treatment.

When to call →

Broken/Chipped Tooth

A broken or chipped tooth may expose sensitive areas or increase the risk of further damage. We can assess the damage and determine whether we can repair the tooth with treatment such as bonding, a filling, or a crown.

When to call →

Knocked-Out/Avulsed Tooth

A knocked-out permanent tooth is time-sensitive. Call our emergency line right away so we can advise you and arrange treatment.

When to call →

Lost Crown / Filling

A lost filling or crown can leave the underlying tooth sensitive or vulnerable to further damage. We examine the tooth and determine whether we can replace the restoration or if another treatment is needed.

When to call →

Dental Trauma/Sports Injury

Falls, sports injuries, and other accidents can damage teeth, gums, or surrounding tissues. Our emergency dentist can assess the injury and determine the needed treatment.

When to call →

Wisdom-Tooth Pain

Severe pain or swelling around a wisdom tooth can result from inflammation, infection, or problems with how the tooth is erupting. We can examine the area and determine whether you need immediate treatment or should consider extraction.

When to call →

Urgent Extraction

Sometimes a severely damaged tooth cannot be repaired. Our dentist will first examine the tooth, determine whether extraction is appropriate, and decide whether it can be completed safely during your emergency visit.

When to call →

Root Canal Therapy

Severe tooth pain can sometimes result from infection or inflammation inside the tooth. After examining the area and taking any necessary X-rays, our dentists determine whether root canal treatment can relieve the problem and save the tooth.

When to call →

What to Do Before You Arrive

Immediate, simple, and critical self-care steps to take before arriving at Smiles. Stay calm and follow these protocols.

Tooth Avulsion (Knocked-Out Tooth)


Handle the tooth by the crown, not the root. If it is dirty, rinse it gently without scrubbing. If you cannot place it back in position safely, keep it moist in milk or a tooth preservation product and call immediately. Do not reinsert a baby tooth.

Severe Swelling


Apply a cold compress to the outside of your cheek to control inflammation. Rinse your mouth thoroughly with warm salt water. Keep your head elevated and do not apply heat.

Broken Tooth


Rinse your mouth with warm water and retrieve any broken fragments. If the remaining edge is sharp, apply temporary dental wax or sugarless gum to cover it and protect your tongue. Do not chew on the affected side.

Severe Tooth Pain


Floss gently to clear any trapped food causing pressure. Rinse thoroughly with warm salt water. Use approved over-the-counter pain relievers, but never place aspirin directly on gum tissue.
