What counts as a dental emergency?

There’s nothing worse than waking up with a toothache or feeling helpless when your child gets their tooth knocked out during basketball practice. Knowing what to do and who to call goes a long way toward alleviating your anxiety and getting your family’s oral health back on track.

Our two dental offices offer emergency dental care to patients from Fortville, Westfield, and the surrounding area.

Common Emergencies We Treat

Here are some of the most common emergencies we see:

  • Severe toothache — When you have tooth pain or sensitivity to hot and cold temperatures that doesn’t subside on its own, you should give us a call.
  • Knocked-out tooth — If your tooth gets completely knocked out, it needs to be replaced quickly.
  • Cracked or broken tooth — Tooth damage can allow harmful bacteria to enter the area, so it’s best to make an appointment.
  • Broken restoration — For a lost filling or broken crown, bridge, or denture, contact our office right away.
  • Soft tissue injury — If your lips, tongue, cheeks, or gums are bleeding, call our team for advice and next steps.
