What Is Emergency Dentistry?
Emergency dentistry addresses urgent dental concerns that require immediate attention to relieve pain, stop bleeding, prevent further damage, or save a tooth. If you’ve ever chipped a tooth during a fall or felt unbearable throbbing pain in the middle of the night, you’ve had a dental emergency.
Common dental emergencies we treat include:
- Knocked-out or loosened teeth
- Abscesses or swelling
- Severe toothaches
- Broken or chipped teeth
- Lost crowns or fillings
- Bleeding gums or trauma from injury
Our expert team—including Dr. Pat Murphy, Dr. Patrick Huelsmann, and Dr. Mike Murphy—delivers compassionate, high-quality care for urgent dental issues. We handle everything from infections to injuries, ensuring you get treatment without unnecessary delays.
Why Emergency Dentistry Matters
When you’re in pain, you shouldn’t have to wait days for an appointment or navigate confusing options. Our team offers emergency dentistry for Maryville patients, focusing on fast, efficient service and long-term results.
Benefits of Timely Emergency Care:
- Pain Relief Without Delay: A severe toothache or injury can disrupt your day. Emergency dental care provides immediate relief through proper diagnosis and treatment.
- Preservation of Natural Teeth: Prompt attention can mean the difference between saving and losing a tooth. For knocked-out or cracked teeth, every minute matters.
- Infection Control: Infections that begin in the teeth or gums can quickly spread if untreated. Emergency intervention stops the infection and protects your health.
- Avoid Complications: Delaying care often leads to more invasive procedures later. Addressing the issue now reduces long-term costs and recovery time.
- Peace of Mind: Knowing you have a trusted team ready to help reduces stress during dental crises—and gets you back to your life faster.
