What Is Emergency Dentistry?

Emergency dentistry offers urgent care for dental issues that require immediate attention, such as severe toothaches, broken teeth, infections, or mouth trauma. These emergencies can be painful, stressful, and potentially harmful if left untreated; therefore, prompt evaluation and treatment are essential.

At Bedford Dental Group, Dr. Daniel Naysan offers same-day emergency appointments and advanced diagnostics to quickly assess and relieve dental emergencies. Whether you’re dealing with a knocked-out tooth or a sudden abscess, we’re here to restore your oral health with precision and care. Dental emergencies can happen at any time. Knowing where to turn for immediate, expert treatment can make all the difference in saving your tooth - and your comfort.

What Are the Benefits of Emergency Dental Care?

Immediate dental care offers more than just pain relief - it protects your long-term oral health. Benefits include:

  • Pain Management: Fast relief from severe toothaches, swelling, or trauma.
  • Tooth Preservation: Prompt care increases the chances of saving an injured or knocked-out tooth.
  • Infection Control: Prevents the spread of oral infections that could affect your overall health.
  • Minimized Complications: Addresses problems early to avoid more invasive or costly treatments later.
  • Peace of Mind: Know that expert help is available when unexpected dental issues arise.

Who Is a Good Candidate for Emergency Dentistry?

As a trusted emergency dentist in Beverly Hills, Dr. Daniel Naysan provides prompt, expert care for urgent dental issues, helping patients relieve pain, prevent complications, and protect their smiles.

  • Severe Tooth Pain: You have sharp or throbbing pain that doesn’t subside with over-the-counter medication.
  • Chipped or Broken Tooth: A portion of your tooth has broken off or is causing discomfort or bleeding.
  • Knocked-Out Tooth: One or more teeth have been fully dislodged due to trauma or injury.
  • Swelling or Abscess: You have a swollen jaw, gum boil, or signs of infection such as fever or a bad taste in your mouth.

What to Expect During an Emergency Visit

  1. Rapid Evaluation: We’ll quickly assess your condition using digital imaging and a clinical exam to determine the cause and severity of your issue.
  2. Pain Relief and Stabilization: Immediate steps are taken to relieve discomfort and prevent the issue from worsening.
  3. Treatment Planning: Dr. Naysan will explain your options and provide either same-day treatment or a temporary solution until follow-up care is possible.
  4. Definitive Care: Depending on the case, treatment may involve a root canal, crown, extraction, antibiotics, or repair of fractured or dislodged teeth.

Alternatives and At-Home Temporary Measures

While dental emergencies require professional treatment, these steps can help minimize damage while you get to the office:

Toothache

Rinse with warm saltwater and take over-the-counter pain relievers.

Knocked-Out Tooth

Rinse gently, keep moist (in milk or saliva), and bring it to the office immediately.

Broken Crown or Filling

Use dental wax or temporary cement (available at drugstores) to protect the area.

Bleeding

Apply gentle pressure with sterile gauze until it stops.

Emergency Dentist Frequently Asked Questions

What qualifies as a dental emergency?

Any dental issue causing severe pain, bleeding, infection, or trauma that requires immediate attention.

What should I do if I knock out a tooth?

Handle it by the crown, not the root, and place it in milk or saliva. See a dentist within 30–60 minutes for the best chance of saving it.

Can a dentist see me the same day?

Yes. Bedford Dental Group offers same-day appointments for dental emergencies whenever possible.

Will insurance cover emergency dental visits?

Many insurance plans cover emergency dental care, depending on the treatment provided. Our team will help verify your coverage.

Can I go to the ER for a tooth emergency?

Hospitals can provide pain relief or antibiotics, but don’t offer dental treatment. It’s best to see an emergency dentist like Dr. Naysan.
