Frequently Asked Questions

What constitutes a dental emergency?

Call us immediately if you experience: severe toothache, knocked-out tooth, broken or cracked tooth, abscess or swelling, uncontrolled bleeding, jaw injury, or lost filling/crown causing pain. When in doubt, call – we’ll help you determine if you need urgent care.

What should I do if my tooth gets knocked out?

Time is critical. Pick up the tooth by the crown (not the root), rinse it gently with water if dirty, and try to place it back in the socket if possible. If you can’t, store it in milk or saliva and call us immediately. If we see you within 30-60 minutes, there’s a good chance we can save the tooth.

How quickly can I be seen for a dental emergency?

We reserve same-day appointment slots for emergencies. Call us at (403) 273-3166 as soon as your emergency occurs, and we’ll get you in as quickly as possible – often the same day.

What if my emergency happens after hours?
