What Counts as a Dental Emergency?
Severe Toothache
Intense, throbbing tooth pain often signals infection or nerve exposure. Call us immediately — this won't go away on its own.
Knocked-Out Tooth
Time is critical. Keep the tooth moist (milk or saliva), call us immediately — reimplantation is possible within 30–60 minutes.
Cracked or Broken Tooth
Rinse with warm water, apply a cold pack to your cheek, and call us right away to prevent further damage or infection.
Lost Crown or Filling
Exposed tooth structure is vulnerable. We can re-cement or replace your restoration same-day in most cases.
Dental Abscess
A dental abscess is a serious infection that can spread. Signs include swelling, fever, and severe pain — call us immediately.
Soft Tissue Injuries
Cuts or lacerations to the lips, gums, or cheeks that won't stop bleeding need prompt dental or medical attention.
Emergency First-Aid Guide
Stay Calm & Call Us
Call (956) 382-6364 immediately. Describe your symptoms so we can prepare for your arrival and give you interim guidance.
Manage Pain at Home
Over-the-counter ibuprofen or acetaminophen can reduce pain temporarily. Do not apply aspirin directly to the gum or tooth.
Preserve Any Pieces
Save broken tooth fragments in milk or water. If a crown falls out, keep it clean — we may be able to re-cement it.
