Dental Emergencies: When You Need Urgent Dental Care

No one likes to think about dental emergencies, but they can happen unexpectedly. Whether it's a sudden toothache or an accident that leaves you with a broken or knocked-out tooth, knowing you have a reliable and skilled dentist to turn to is crucial. At the office of Dental Wellness Center of Florida, we're here to provide prompt and compassionate care when you need us most.

What constitutes a dental emergency?

Dental emergencies can arise from various situations, including but not limited to: acute pain, trauma or injury, a problematic wisdom tooth, an abscess, an oral lesion, or a laceration. Sometimes, even an earache or a sinus issue can feel like dental pain and lead you to seek emergency dental care.

Why it's important not to ignore dental pain or discomfort

If left untreated, dental problems can quickly escalate, potentially jeopardizing your oral health and overall wellbeing. For this reason, it's essential to contact our office as soon as possible for timely care.

Other reasons you might need urgent dental care

Not all dental emergencies are painful. A broken restoration or a dislodged crown may not cause any discomfort, but they can leave you with embarrassing gaps in your smile and make it difficult to speak, eat, or drink comfortably. We understand these situations and are here to provide the prompt attention and treatment they require.
