Dental emergencies can be stressful – but they don’t have to be. At Crossings Dental, we try to make it easy for you with a 24-hour dental emergency hotline – call us right away and we’ll help you through. Here are some tips to help until you can get in to see us.

Knocked-Out Tooth – carefully handle the tooth by the top – never the root – gently clean it by rinsing it under clean water. Never scrub the root. Try to put it back in its place and call us right awa. If you can’t place the tooth back in the socket, either in your mouth next to your cheek or put it in a container of cold milk until you get here.

Toothache – most toothaches are cause by decay or infection, so it’s important to come see us. We’ll help get you out of pain and treat your dental issue.

Chipped or Broken Tooth – in many cases we can save a broken tooth, so give us a call and we’ll get you back to smiling as quickly as possible.
