About This Condition
You might need an emergency dental visit is you have a:
- Chipped or cracked tooth
- Knocked-out tooth
- Loose permanent tooth
- Tooth that’s been pushed into or out of the bone
- Severe toothache
- Object stuck in your teeth or gums
During your visit, we will review the details of your dental emergency, as well as your oral and medical history, and then examine your teeth and gums, paying special attention to the area of your mouth affected by your dental emergency.
To assess the severity of your dental issue, we may request diagnostic imaging, an x-ray, panoramic x-ray of a dental cone beam CT scanner. A CBCT scan is an advanced imaging tool that generates 3D images of your teeth, gums, nerves, and jawbone.
