Dental Emergency Advice

It's best to call us as soon as possible if you're experiencing any kind of dental emergency. If you're bleeding excessively or your injury affects more than just your teeth, call 911 or seek your closest emergency room right away!

For less extreme cases, these tips can help you manage your dental problem until you can get into our office:

Your Temporary Crown fell out...

If your temporary falls out and you still have it, dry your natural tooth, apply a small dab of toothpaste to the temporary and reattach it. You may also use dental wax or temporary adhesive, available at most pharmacies. Please call our office so that we can professionally reattach your temporary as soon as possible.

Your Tooth Knocked Out...

Rinse the tooth gently under water to remove debris. Place the tooth into the socket it fell from and hold it in place until you get to our office. Otherwise, put the tooth into a baggie of milk and bring it to us so that we can determine whether reattachment is possible.

You've Cut or Bitten your Tongue or Lip...

Thoroughly clean the cut, then hold an ice pack against it. If bleeding does not stop, go to your local emergency room. You may need stitches.

You Have a Broken Tooth or Chipped Tooth

A cracked or broken tooth should be rinsed immediately with warm water. Then hold an ice pack (not too firmly) against your cheeck over the affected tooth to reduce swelling while on your way to our office for assistance.

You've Possibly Gotten a Broken Jaw

If you think your jaw may be broken, apply an ice pack and proceed to your local emergency room immediately. If you lost or damaged teeth during your injury, please call us, as well.

You Have a Severe Toothache

Rinse your mouth and the area around the tooth, then floss around the tooth to make sure that debris is not causing the pain. Do not put an aspirin on the tooth because it can damage your gum tissue. Call our office for an appointment if the pain persists.

You Have Something Caught Between Teeth

Use dental floss to gently remove the debris, and be sure that you don’t cut your gums with the floss. Do not use a sharp instrument to dislodge the debris. If floss doesn’t help, call our office for an appointment.

"I was scheduled an emergency appointment very quickly. The day of my appointment I was 20 minutes late because I couldn't get out of work early and the doctor waited for me." Carlos G., Patient Review

"I have been a patient of Preferred Dental Care since 1993. Their motto, "We care for People… Not Just Teeth" was never made more true for me as when I had a bad bicycle accident about ten years ago where I broke several front teeth. I put my complete faith in Dr. Kamdar and as usual, he did not let me down. His expertise is only matched by his warm and caring manner. I would and do recommend Preferred Dental to anyone who asks." -Marie A.

“I had a dental emergency (broken tooth). PDC took care of me right away. The facility is very clean and the staff courteous/ helpful. The implant looks great and the follow up care excellent. Especially the cleaning. THANK YOU!!” Israel A., Online Review
