At Dental Care of Corona, we make every effort to provide emergency dental care the same day, if possible. If you or a loved one experiences a dental emergency, call our team first so we can assess your condition over the phone and determine whether you need immediate attention or a future appointment.
Handling Emergencies at Dental Care of Corona
Some of the tooth emergencies we handle are:
- Broken or chipped teeth — If a tooth is chipped, you may be able to handle it at a future appointment. A broken tooth may need immediate care to prevent further damage.
- Knocked-out teeth — A tooth that becomes dislodged needs immediate attention. Call our team for an appointment and guidance on how to handle the tooth until you get to our Corona dental office.
- Toothaches or abscesses — Don't ignore a severe or persistent toothache, as it can indicate an infection.
- Lost or broken restorations — If you lose or break a restoration like a crown or filling, it will need repair or replacement to help you avoid further damage.
If you don't see your concern listed here, call us first anyway. It can save you valuable time and money to talk with your dentist first, as hospital emergency rooms are not well-equipped to handle dental emergencies.
