What should I do when a dental emergency occurs?

Should a dental emergency arise in your household, the first thing we ask patients to do is to get in touch with our team right away by giving our office a call. This allows us to assess the situation over the phone and advise. If we determine that the situation requires immediate assistance, we will change our schedule and begin preparing a treatment room. If it’s decided that the situation is not an emergency, we will be happy to get an appointment scheduled for a later date. If you are unsure whether emergency dentistry is required and you would like to speak to a dental professional, our friendly team would be happy to assist.

What are some examples of dental emergencies?

While it can sometimes be difficult to determine whether something is an emergency or not, there are a few scenarios that are always considered dental emergencies. If a tooth is knocked out for example, you must visit a dentist as soon as possible before the tooth dies and cannot be reattached. Other common dental emergencies include:

  • Cracked or Broken Tooth
  • Dental Abscess
  • Uncontrollable Bleeding or Swelling
  • Unbearable Pain
  • Lost Dental Restoration

Is emergency dentistry covered by insurance?

Some dental insurance plans offer full or partial coverage for emergency dental services and some do not, so it’s important to check with your provider before an emergency occurs to see exactly what is covered. If you don’t have insurance, our Atlantic Dental Partners Gold Plan includes one emergency visit per year, so you can get the care you need when you need it. We also accept payment plans through CareCredit® for patients who need a way to break up the cost of their emergency care. Whatever you decide to do, we always recommend seeking treatment right away for a dental emergency, and our knowledgeable team can help you with the financing you care afterward.
