Emergency Dentist in North Fresno, CA: Same-Day Care When It Hurts

If you're asking whether you need an emergency dentist or can wait, these signs usually mean you should call right away:

• Severe or persistent toothache that keeps you up at night

• Chipped, cracked or broken teeth

• A knocked-out (avulsed) tooth

• Dental abscess, a swollen gum or a pimple-like bump on the gums

• Lost filling or crown, or a loose temporary crown

• Bleeding that won't stop after an extraction or injury

• Wisdom tooth pain or a pericoronitis flare-up

• Sudden sensitivity or pain when you bite down

Go to the ER or call 911 instead if you have trouble breathing or swallowing, swelling that spreads to your eye or neck, or a serious facial injury. Once you're stable, we can handle the dental follow-up.

A few quick steps can protect your tooth and ease discomfort:

• Knocked-out tooth: Pick it up by the crown, not the root. Rinse gently without scrubbing, and try placing it back in the socket or keep it in milk. See a dentist within 30 minutes to an hour if you can. Speed matters most for saving the tooth.

• Cracked or broken tooth: Rinse with warm water and save any fragments. A cold compress on the cheek reduces swelling.

• Severe toothache: Rinse with warm salt water and floss gently to remove trapped food. Skip aspirin on the gum, because it can burn the tissue.

• Lost crown or filling: Keep the crown and bring it with you. Avoid chewing on that side.

Our team treats the cause of your pain, not just the symptoms. Depending on your exam and digital X-rays, urgent treatment may include:

• Emergency tooth extraction for severely damaged or infected teeth

• Root canal therapy to remove infection and save a painful tooth

• Dental crowns, fillings and bonding to repair cracked, chipped or broken teeth

• Abscess drainage and infection control

• Wisdom teeth removal for impacted or infected third molars

• TMJ/TMD therapy for jaw pain, locking and clenching injuries

• Dental X-rays and 3D imaging for fast, accurate diagnosis
