How We Treat Dental Emergencies

You shouldn’t panic over dental emergencies, even if they seem a bit scary. The process of treating them is smooth, pain-free, and well-researched these days. As for what it involves, you can expect the following from your appointment:

• A Same-Day Visit – We’ll schedule your visit for the earliest possible time once you call. (You may even see us the very same day!) Also, our team can provide first-aid tips over the phone.
• An Emergency Exam – When you first arrive at our office, we’ll perform a quick (but thorough) oral exam. This assessment diagnoses your issue and determines how to relieve your pain.
• A Review of Findings – After your oral exam, we’ll share our findings and suggest suitable procedures. We’ll then draft a custom treatment plan based on your feedback.
• Crucial Dental Work – Once we’ve drafted your treatment plan, Dr. Sudeep will quickly address your problem. He and our team have more than enough skills and experience to do so!

The Most Common Dental Emergencies

You should call us if you have a dental emergency, as our team provides prompt and precise treatment. That said, you can take steps to handle your problem yourself before your visit. All you need to do is click one (or more) of the icons below and use the related instructions. By doing so, you’ll ensure your upcoming treatment goes more smoothly and easily.

Understanding the Cost of Dental Emergencies 

Dental emergencies aren’t all the same, so the cost of treating one varies from patient to patient. You’ll want to see Dr. Sudeep for an exact estimate; you won’t know your treatment’s price otherwise. Of course, we’ll also strive to keep your care affordable and within your budget. Our team can even explain your treatment’s pricing factors, the role of dental insurance, and other key details. We’ll even outline some of our helpful payment options, ensuring your treatment is cost-effective.

Keys to Preventing Dental Emergencies

While you can’t always prevent dental emergencies, you can reduce your risk of having one. Simply follow the guidelines below:

• Clean Your Smile at Home – To prevent the buildup of harmful plaque, please brush your teeth twice daily and floss between them once daily.
• See Your Dentist Often – A dentist can diagnose and treat small oral problems before they worsen. So, try to attend checkups (and cleanings) at least every six months.
• Get Mouth Protection – A sportsguard would protect your mouth from physical injuries, and a nightguard would prevent teeth grinding at night.
• Avoid Bad Oral Habits – You shouldn’t use teeth to open packages; rely on proper tools instead.
