YOUR QUESTIONS, ANSWERED
Emergency Dentistry FAQs
What if swelling affects breathing or swallowing?
Seek emergency medical help immediately for difficulty breathing or swallowing, or rapidly spreading swelling. Do not wait for an online appointment request.
Can I wait if a tooth is knocked out?
A knocked-out permanent tooth needs urgent dental attention. Hold it by the crown, not the root; keep it moist and contact a dentist immediately. Do not replant a baby tooth.
Will antibiotics fix every toothache?
No. Many dental problems need treatment of the tooth or gum source. Antibiotics are prescribed only when clinically appropriate.
Treatment is recommended following an individual assessment. Contact the clinic to confirm service and specialist availability.
