Common Dental Emergencies We Treat

Knowing what counts as a true dental emergency can help you protect your teeth and avoid long-term damage. If you’re unsure, call us and we’ll help you decide your next step.

Severe Toothache or Dental Pain

If you have a toothache that’s intense, throbbing, or keeps you up at night, you may have a deep cavity, cracked tooth, or infection. Don’t ignore it—dental infections can spread and become dangerous.

  • Sharp pain when chewing or biting
  • Lingering sensitivity to hot or cold
  • Swelling in the face or gums

Our team can quickly diagnose the cause and provide relief with treatments such as fillings, root canals, or other restorative procedures.

Broken, Chipped, or Cracked Teeth

Sports injuries, accidents, or biting something hard can all damage your teeth. Even if the tooth doesn’t hurt, it should be evaluated quickly.

  • We can smooth or rebuild chipped teeth
  • Cracked teeth may need a crown or root canal
  • Prompt care helps prevent infection and tooth loss

Knocked-Out (Avulsed) Tooth

A knocked-out tooth is one of the most urgent dental emergencies. Your best chance to save the tooth is to see a dentist within 30–60 minutes.

What to do immediately:

  • Handle the tooth by the crown (the white part), not the root
  • Gently rinse with water if dirty, but do not scrub
  • If possible, place the tooth back in the socket and bite gently on gauze
  • If you can’t reinsert it, keep it in milk or a tooth preservation solution
  • Call us right away: 208-466-7424

Lost or Broken Filling, Crown, or Bridge

Lost restorations can expose sensitive tooth structure and quickly lead to pain or further damage.

  • We can often replace or repair lost fillings the same day
  • Broken or lost crowns and bridges may be temporarily or permanently restored
  • Protect your tooth from temperature extremes and chewing until we see you

Dental Abscess or Swelling

A dental abscess is a pocket of pus caused by a bacterial infection. This is a serious condition and needs prompt attention.

  • Symptoms may include severe pain, swelling, bad taste, or fever
  • Abscesses often require drainage, antibiotics, and root canal or extraction
  • If you have difficulty breathing or swallowing, seek emergency medical care immediately

Soft Tissue Injuries (Lips, Cheeks, Gums)

Cuts or tears in the mouth can bleed heavily and be very uncomfortable.

  • Rinse gently with warm water
  • Apply clean gauze with light pressure to control bleeding
  • Use a cold compress on the outside of the face to reduce swelling
  • Call our office to determine if you need stitches or further care
