Alliston, ON, Practitioner Explains Dental Emergencies

When you or a loved one is in a stressful situation, it can be hard to know what to do. Here is a simple guide to help you determine the best course of action.

  • Medical Emergency: Call 911 

If you are experiencing any of the following, please call an ambulance or get to the nearest hospital emergency room as quickly as possible:

  • Suspected broken facial bones
  • Uncontrolled bleeding that you cannot stop
  • Difficulty breathing or swallowing
  • Dental Emergency: Call Our Office Immediately 

If you have a dental emergency, a delay in treatment could result in unnecessary pain or even the loss of a tooth. This is when you should call our office right away. Common dental emergencies include:

  • A tooth that has been knocked out or is very loose
  • A severe abscess with swelling and acute pain
  • An object stuck between your teeth that you can’t remove
  • Severe pain that is keeping you up at night

Please call Dominion Street Dental at 705-410-0961 We will do our best to see you promptly during business hours. In the meantime, we will provide you with calming advice and first-aid guidance over the phone.

  • Urgent Situations: We’ll See You Soon 

Even if it isn’t a life-threatening emergency, some situations still require quick attention. If you have a severe toothache that is not an abscess or a tooth that has broken off below the gumline, you are experiencing an urgent dental situation. We will do our best to get you an appointment as soon as possible and often can perform the necessary procedure on the same day to get you out of discomfort.

  • Speedy Care: Schedule a Regular Appointment 

Please don’t hesitate to schedule a regular appointment with us for any of the following, even if they don’t seem like an emergency:

  • A mild or recurring toothache
  • A chipped or cracked tooth

No matter what you’re dealing with, we are here to provide compassionate and efficient care.
