If you sustain an injury, or experience pain in your teeth or gums, it can cause serious issues or lead to infection. If you are experiencing any symptoms please contact our Dallas dental office immediately to determine if you need to be seen right away. Waiting too long can increase the chances of permanent tooth damage, as well as the need for more extensive treatment later on. Dr. Diaz is an experienced emergency dentist in Dallas. We understand that a dental emergency happens from time to time. Our office is here to help you through those emergencies in a timely manner. We make our very best effort to see emergency dentistry patients the very same day. When you call our office, we can provide advice over the phone on how to handle your situation until you can make it into the office.
There is never a problem too big or too small for Diaz Dental Studio to handle. Whether you’re considering the option to come in or not to come in for a minor emergency, we can help put your mind at ease. Some of the most common emergencies that are seen include:
Broken or missing crown or filling: It is unlikely that the restoration can be reused, but please save it if possible. Do not attempt to glue or reattach the dental filling or dental crown.
Broken or knocked out teeth: If you have a broken or knocked out tooth, please contact our office immediately. Retrieve the tooth, if possible, holding it by the crown (the part that is normally exposed in your mouth). You may gently rinse the tooth with water to remove dirt, but do not scrub or remove any tissue fragments that may be attached. The ADA recommends storing the tooth in a small container with your own saliva or milk. Teeth have the greatest chance of being replaced in the socket within one hour of being knocked out. If it cannot be saved, our practice offers a full range of restorative dentistry services such as dental implants or dental bridges.
Broken Dentures or Broken Bridge: If possible, save the broken denture or bridge and bring it with you to your appointment. In some cases, dentures and bridges can be repaired. We will evaluate your denture or bridge and make the best recommendation for repair or replacement.
Dr. Diaz and our dental team set aside special time for emergency patients so we can get you in as quickly as possible.
