Calling helps us reserve an emergency slot, prepare imaging and minimize your wait. Each clinic reserves daily emergency appointments.

First-aid steps before your appointment

  1. Tooth pain

    Rinse with warm salt water, gently floss to dislodge any trapped food, and use a cold compress on the cheek. Avoid placing aspirin directly on the gum.

  2. Knocked-out tooth

    Hold the tooth by the crown, rinse it briefly in milk or saline, and reinsert it into the socket if possible. Otherwise store it in milk or saliva and reach a dentist within 30 to 60 minutes.

  3. Broken or chipped tooth

    Save any tooth fragments. Rinse the mouth with warm water and apply a cold compress to reduce swelling.

  4. Facial swelling

    Swelling can indicate infection. Apply a cold compress and call the clinic. Seek emergency medical care if swelling spreads to the eye or affects breathing or swallowing.

  5. Lost filling or crown

    Keep the area clean and avoid chewing on that side. If a crown comes off intact, bring it with you to your appointment.
