If you’ve ever experienced an unexpected dental emergency, you know how painful and inconvenient one can be. The urgent need for relief will stop you in your tracks and send you on a desperate smartphone search for “emergency dental care near me.” Knowing who to call when you need emergency dental care can prevent unnecessary suffering and help you maintain your dental health.

How Can I Find an Emergency Dentist in My Area?

When you need emergency dental care, there’s no time to waste. Delaying treatment can end up making the problem even worse. Fortunately, our emergency dentists in Rockledge are available during our regular business hours to diagnose the condition, relieve your tooth pain and find out if you’ll need further treatment to prevent the problem from coming back. Consult our emergency dental office during our normal operating hours to schedule an appointment. If possible, we’ll try to schedule your visit within the same day.

While we try to provide dental emergencies with same-day treatment, we always at least make time for an examination and diagnosis before scheduling care as soon as possible.

What Constitutes an Emergency Dental Service?

Emergency dental services are treatments and dental procedures that relieve unexpected and urgent dental problems so that they don’t get worse or cause permanent harm. Urgent dental care providers perform tooth extractions, provide restorations and repair teeth after injuries occur. The following are examples of premium emergency dental services that we provide during office hours:

  • Toothache treatment
  • Emergency dental repairs for fractured, chipped or cracked teeth
  • Tooth removal
  • Management of wisdom tooth symptoms
  • Treatment for dental infections
  • Correction of problems caused by orthodontic appliances such as oral pain or injury from damaged or displaced wires and brackets

Conditions Managed by Emergency Dental Treatment

When should I seek out emergency dental care near me?

Emergency dental care is available for any urgent dental need, including the following common symptoms and conditions.

Fractured or Broken Teeth

To prevent infection and worsening of existing damage, get treatment for a fractured or broken tooth as soon as possible. If your damaged tooth is cutting into your tongue or cheek, place dental wax on top of the jagged area, and call us to schedule your treatment.

Knocked-Out Tooth

Emergency dentists can often save knocked-out teeth if patients act quickly. If a tooth is knocked completely out of your mouth, gather any broken fragments, and rinse each using warm water. Place the affected tooth into its socket if possible, or store it inside your cheek. Contact us immediately to schedule emergency treatment.

Severe Toothache or Feelings of Pressure

The pain and pressure of a toothache can have a number of causes. Seek treatment for tooth pain promptly, especially if it presents with other symptoms like fever, ear pain, swelling or pressure.

Sensitivity to Heat or Cold

Mild tooth sensitivity is common, but if your teeth suddenly become sensitive to hot or cold foods and liquids, a fracture or a gum infection may be present. Contact us for urgent dental care to gain relief.

Dental Decay

Dental decay causes cavities that can expose tooth roots or pulp and result in severe toothaches. Contact our emergency dentists to find pain relief and determine what type of treatment is needed to repair your decayed tooth.

Tooth Abscess

A tooth abscess is a serious infection that develops in gum tissue near a tooth’s root. Gum disease, trauma and tooth decay are common causes. Symptoms include severe toothache, fever, bad tastes or odors, swollen lymph nodes in your neck, fever and facial swelling. Contact our emergency dental office right away if you think you may have an abscess. Untreated abscesses can cause serious illness.

Lost or Loose Fillings

If a filling becomes loose or is accidentally swallowed, your tooth faces a higher risk of decay and fractures. Call us as soon as possible so that we can replace or repair it.

Broken or Lost Crowns and Restorations

A broken or lost crown also puts your exposed tooth at risk. Our qualified emergency dentists can restore the tooth’s integrity with a permanent or temporary restoration.

Orthodontic Pain or Injury

If they shift or become damaged, the wires and brackets of orthodontic braces can sometimes cause severe discomfort or even painful injuries. We can treat orthodontic pain or injury and ensure that your braces are stable. Call us during office hours for more information.

Tooth Enamel Worn by Bruxism

Bruxism is another name for nighttime teeth grinding. Over time, this unconscious habit can severely damage tooth enamel. When bruxism threatens your dental health, our emergency dentists will reinforce your tooth enamel and supply devices to discourage or stop your teeth grinding habits.

Sinus Pressure

Sinus pressure isn’t always caused by a sinus problem. Because your sinuses are close to your teeth, sinus symptoms can be due to a dental condition. If you’re experiencing unexplained sinus pressure along with tooth pain or other dental symptoms, call us to set up an emergency exam so that we can rule out problems like impacted molars or hidden dental infections.

What to Do When the Problem Is Serious

I have symptoms that suggest a serious medical crisis. Should I visit an emergency dental office near me or call go to the emergency room instead?

If you are experiencing severe swelling or uncontrollable bleeding or you’ve sustained a major impact injury that affects your head, face, or jaw, proceed to the nearest emergency room, or call 911 for immediate assistance instead of seeking emergency dentists in Rockledge.

What should I do if my emergency occurs after hours or on the weekend? Should I wait to contact an emergency dental office near me?

If your condition is minor and you’re not experiencing severe discomfort, simply wait until our emergency dentists in Rockledge are available to see you. However, you shouldn’t postpone treatment if you are suffering or have a serious condition that could become complicated if treatment is delayed. For immediate help, go to your local hospital emergency room. When you need to find skilled emergency dentists during business hours, please give us a call.

The Cost of Dental Emergency Treatment

When it comes to treatment costs, a variety of factors determine the final price. Your cost will depend on what types of medications, tests and treatments are required to resolve your condition. Our affordable emergency dentists accept almost all major dental insurance plans. We also accept credit cards and offer several convenient financing options for emergency dental care.

If you’re in need of low-cost dental care and don’t have insurance, our DentRite® dental discount plan may be perfect for you. Everyone is accepted, and members can save a significant amount of money on preventive care plus routine and emergency procedures. Contact our office for more information.
