Dental emergencies don't wait for convenient appointment times. At Lakeview Dental, we reserve time every day for urgent cases so you can get the care you need when you need it — often the same day you call.
Common Dental Emergencies
- Severe toothache — persistent, throbbing pain that may indicate infection
- Broken or cracked tooth — from trauma, biting something hard, or grinding
- Knocked-out tooth — time is critical for reimplantation
- Lost filling or crown — exposes the tooth to further damage
- Dental abscess — a serious infection requiring immediate treatment
- Soft tissue injury — cuts or tears to lips, tongue, or cheeks
What to Do in a Dental Emergency
Call us immediately at (704) 555-0183. We'll walk you through first-aid steps over the phone and get you in as quickly as possible. If a tooth has been knocked out, keep it moist — place it back in the socket if you can, or store it in milk. Time matters: reimplantation is most successful within 30 minutes.
After-Hours Emergencies
If you experience a dental emergency after office hours, call our main number and follow the prompts for emergency care. Dr. Mitchell monitors after-hours calls and will return your call promptly to assess the situation and provide guidance.
