Emergencies

In the case of an extreme emergency, where trauma to the face and mouth has occurred, please proceed to the nearest hospital emergency room or urgent care facility.



For direct injuries to the mouth and teeth, contact your dentist as soon as possible. Usually an x-ray of the involved tooth or teeth is needed to ascertain the extent of the injury. After seeing your family dentist, call our office immediately to repair any damaged appliances. If you are unable to reach your general dentist, call our office for assistance.

Office emergencies consist of broken wires or appliances or any unusual discomfort in the patient's mouth.

Broken or loose appliances cannot do the orthodontic work they need to do. Delay in contacting us to make these adjustments or repairs will lengthen treatment time.
