Emergency Dental Services
Not every dental appointment is scheduled six months in advance. Between your regular appointments, you may develop a dental problem that needs to be addressed sooner in order to save your tooth and protect your oral health. If the problem is severe enough, you will need an emergency appointment that will address the problem immediately. Emergency dental appointments are reserved for serious or severe dental problems that can result in the loss of a tooth or more serious health problems if left untreated. The goal is to protect the tooth and keep you in good dental and oral health. If that is at risk, an emergency dental appointment may be needed.Reasons for Emergency Dental Care

Getting Emergency Dental Care
If you need an emergency dental appointment, your dentist will give you any specific instructions about how to prepare for your appointment. This may include rinsing with warm water or using an ice pack to reduce swelling. After your emergency need is addressed, it is a good idea to make a follow-up appointment to address any other issues you have. Your emergency dentist may point out further care that you need, or you may need a follow-up appointment to finish or check the dental work you get at your emergency appointment. Not every dental appointment can be planned. Sometimes problems arise between regular appointments that have to be addressed so you can stay in good oral health. Whether you suffer an injury that knocks out a tooth or you have severe damage that calls for an emergency tooth extraction, seeing your emergency dentist will help ensure that you have the healthiest smile you can.
