Dental Emergency in Braeswood? We Can See You Today

Fast relief for severe tooth pain, swelling, and broken teeth, starting with an $89 emergency exam.

Is It a Dental Emergency?

Some dental problems can wait for a routine visit. Others can’t. Sudden or worsening tooth pain, bleeding that won’t stop, a swollen jaw, or a tooth that has cracked or come loose all call for prompt professional care. Left alone, these problems tend to get more painful, more complicated, and more expensive.

If you’re unsure, call our Braeswood office. We’ll ask a few quick questions and tell you whether you should come in right away. Your $89 emergency exam covers the visit that gets you started.

Problems We See Most Often

Urgent dental situations take many forms. These are the ones that bring Braeswood patients through our door:

  • Throbbing or persistent toothaches
  • Gum or facial swelling, or a suspected abscess
  • Painful or impacted wisdom teeth
  • Gums that bleed or look inflamed
  • Sudden sensitivity to hot, cold, or pressure
  • Cracked, chipped, or fractured teeth
  • Fillings, crowns, or dentures that have broken
  • Veneers, crowns, or bridges that have come loose or fallen out
  • Teeth that need an emergency extraction

Frequently Asked Questions

Which problems count as a dental emergency?

Severe pain, bleeding that won’t stop, facial swelling, a knocked-out tooth, and a broken tooth with sharp edges or an exposed nerve all qualify. So do a suspected abscess, a lost crown or filling that hurts, and injuries to the mouth or jaw. Not sure where yours falls? Call our Braeswood office and we’ll help you decide whether to come in today.

What do I do if a tooth is knocked out?

Act quickly, because time matters:

  • Hold the tooth by the crown (the chewing surface) and avoid touching the root.
  • If it’s dirty, rinse it briefly with milk or water. Don’t scrub it or strip off any tissue.
  • If you can, slip it back into the socket and bite gently on clean gauze or cloth to hold it there.
  • If it won’t go back in, keep it in cold milk or a tooth-preservation solution, not plain water.
  • Call us right away. Reimplantation works best within about an hour.

Should I go to the ER or an emergency dentist?

For most tooth and gum problems, an emergency dentist is the better choice, because we can treat the cause rather than only manage symptoms. Go to the ER or call 911 if you’re having trouble breathing or swallowing, if swelling is spreading toward your eye or neck, if you have a high fever with facial swelling, or if you’ve had a serious head or jaw injury.

Can a toothache wait until morning?

Mild sensitivity sometimes can. Severe, throbbing, or worsening pain usually points to infection or nerve damage and shouldn’t be put off. Pain that wakes you at night, swelling, a bad taste, or fever are signs to call us as soon as possible.

What can I do for the pain before I get there?

  • Rinse gently with warm salt water.
  • Hold a cold compress against your cheek, 15 minutes at a time.
  • Use over-the-counter pain relief as the label directs, if it’s safe for you.
  • Don’t place aspirin directly on the gums, as it can burn the tissue.
  • Skip very hot, very cold, or hard foods.
