What We Treat Same-Day

Suspect an infection? Read about tooth infection treatment — and call. Swelling that reaches your jaw, neck, or eye is a medical emergency.

  • Severe tooth pain: often an infection — see our tooth infection treatment before it spreads.
  • Broken or chipped teeth: stabilized and repaired, with temporary crowns when needed.
  • Knocked-out teeth: often saveable if you're seen within the hour.
  • Abscesses and swelling: drained and treated with infection control on visit one.
  • Lost crowns and fillings: re-cemented or replaced the same day.

First Aid While You Drive

More detail in our broken tooth first aid guide. Cayce locals: our Cayce emergency page covers the same-day process at the office itself.

  • Knocked-out tooth: hold it by the crown (not the root), rinse gently, keep it in milk or inside your cheek.
  • Broken tooth: save the pieces, rinse with warm water, cold compress on the cheek — see our broken tooth first-aid guide.
  • Severe toothache: rinse with warm saltwater and use OTC pain relief. Never put aspirin on the gum.
  • Bleeding: firm pressure with clean gauze for 15 minutes.
