How We Treat Dental Emergencies
Treating a dental emergency requires that we first know about the situation, which means you will need to call our office right away. Once we better understand the severity of the injury, we can determine how quickly you need to come in for treatment. We do our best to get patients in on the same day, even providing after-hours appointments.
Once you are in a treatment chair, we will address the pain and begin examining the affected area, taking digital scans and images if necessary. One of our dentists will analyze the findings to create a treatment plan that indicates which restorative treatment will be most effective.
Many emergencies can be treated with antibiotics, a dental filling, a dental crown, a root canal, or tooth extraction. If we can administer care the same day, we will, but if not, we will schedule a time for you to come in at a later date.
The Most Common Dental Emergencies
When faced with a dental emergency, you may be unsure whether you should see your dentist or visit the ER. While certain circumstances warrant immediate medical attention (i.e., broken jaw, excessive bleeding, increased swelling), most injuries can be treated in our Haverhill dental office.
