Call Biggio Dental Care When You Need Emergency Dentistry

Knowing whom to contact can greatly enhance your comfort and the outcome of dental emergencies. Always call your dentist for dental emergencies unless it’s a head, jaw, or neck injury. Dentists have special training to handle numerous dental emergencies. We also have the tools and knowledge to provide the most appropriate treatment to alleviate pain and save a damaged tooth.

While your dentist is your go-to for most dental emergencies, exceptions exist. Head, jaw, or neck injuries may be signs of more serious trauma and require immediate medical evaluation in an emergency room. Such injuries might involve internal bleeding, broken bones, or concussions, which need medical imaging and treatment beyond dental care.

When you need emergency dentistry, don’t delay or postpone it. Here are the benefits of emergency dental care:

• Pain relief: Emergency dentists relieve pain, offering much-needed relief in a dental crisis.
• Managing infections: We offer root canals and extractions to eliminate infections, protecting your tooth and nearby structures.  
• Saving your tooth: Emergency dentistry can reimplant a dislodged tooth or provide restorative treatments to maintain a healthy structure. 
• Safeguard against further issues: Emergency dental care prevents dental issues from worsening, preserving oral and systemic health.

While we provide effective treatments for dental emergencies, prevention is preferable. Brush and floss your teeth daily to reduce the severity and frequency of dental emergencies. Adhere to regular dental check-ups and cleanings to complement home dental care. Lastly, avoid using your teeth to bite hard substances and wear a personalized mouthguard if you are a tooth grinder or sports person.
