Before You Call
For established patients who have undergone dental procedures at our clinic, please contact our office first if you encounter any post-operative issues or concerns. However, if you are not a registered patient at our practice, we recommend seeking immediate dental or medical attention before contacting our office. Your health and safety are of utmost importance to us, and we want to ensure you receive the appropriate care for your specific situation. Here are a few ways to relieve pain on your way in:
- Take over-the-counter pain relievers as directed for toothache or oral pain relief
- If a tooth is knocked out and intact, clean it with water, avoiding removing any attached tissue. Reinsert the tooth back into the socket and hold it in place
- For facial traumas, apply a clean cloth or sterile dressing to any bleeding wounds and gently hold pressure to control bleeding if necessary
- Immobilize any suspected fractures or dislocated areas by using a splint or securing them with a bandage to minimize further damage
- Seek immediate dental attention as soon as possible to increase the chances of successful reattachment
