Dental emergencies can happen unexpectedly. Whether you are experiencing severe tooth pain, a broken tooth, swelling, or a dental injury, Midtown Dental is here to provide prompt, professional care when you need it.

Dr. Jason Eaglin offers emergency dental care focused on relieving discomfort, protecting your oral health, and providing solutions to get your smile back on track. 

When Should You See an Emergency Dentist?

Not every dental concern requires emergency treatment, but certain symptoms should be addressed as soon as possible.

You should contact Midtown Dental if you experience:

  • Severe or persistent tooth pain
  • A broken or cracked tooth
  • A knocked-out tooth
  • A loose dental restoration
  • Swelling or signs of infection
  • A dental abscess
  • Bleeding or injury involving your teeth or gums

Prompt treatment can help reduce discomfort, prevent complications, and protect your long-term oral health. 

Common Dental Emergencies We Treat

Severe Tooth Pain

Persistent tooth pain can be a sign of decay, infection, or damage inside the tooth. We evaluate the cause of your discomfort and recommend the appropriate treatment.

Broken or Cracked Teeth

A damaged tooth can worsen without treatment. We provide solutions to restore strength, function, and appearance.

Dental Abscesses

An abscess is an infection that requires professional attention. Treatment helps address the source of infection and protect surrounding tissues.

Lost Fillings or Crowns

A missing filling or crown can expose the tooth to additional damage. We can evaluate the tooth and determine the best restoration option.

Emergency Dental Treatments

Depending on the situation, emergency treatment may include:

Tooth Repair

Damaged teeth may be repaired with fillings, bonding, crowns, or other restorative solutions.

Root Canal Treatment

When the inside of a tooth becomes infected or damaged, root canal therapy may help save the tooth. Dr. Eaglin provides root canal treatment for front teeth and premolars.

Tooth Extraction

When a tooth cannot be restored, extraction may be recommended to protect your overall oral health.

Crown or Restoration Replacement

Damaged or lost restorations can often be replaced to restore comfort and function.

Infection Treatment

Dental infections require prompt attention to reduce discomfort and prevent the condition from progressing.

What To Do Before Your Emergency Appointment

While waiting for your appointment:

✓ Contact Midtown Dental as soon as possible

✓ Avoid chewing on the affected area

✓ Keep any broken tooth fragments and bring them with you

✓ Rinse your mouth gently with warm water

✓ Apply a cold compress for swelling

✓ Avoid placing aspirin directly on your gums or tooth
