Urgent dental problems, and what to do first.
Dental emergencies rarely arrive at a convenient time. A throbbing tooth, a swollen jaw, a knocked-out tooth after a fall or a crown that suddenly comes off can all leave you wondering how urgent the situation really is. These guides explain the common emergencies, first steps at home and what an urgent visit involves.
From Villa Nova, call our Port Dover office before setting out so the team can discuss your symptoms and availability. For trouble breathing or swallowing, rapidly spreading swelling or uncontrolled bleeding, call 911 or go to the nearest emergency department.

Dental emergency questions
Have a question about your situation? Our team can help you plan a visit.
When should I go to the hospital instead of the dentist?
Go to emergency or call 911 for difficulty breathing or swallowing, swelling spreading toward the eye or neck, uncontrolled bleeding or a head injury.
What should I do with a knocked-out adult tooth?
Hold it by the crown, keep it moist in milk or saliva or gently replant it, and call a dentist immediately. Do not replant baby teeth.
Can I be seen the same day?
Availability varies. Calling early and describing your symptoms clearly gives the team the best chance to arrange a timely assessment.
