A dental emergency can happen when you least expect it. This means that preparing ahead of time for what to do can save valuable time that increases your chance of a successful recovery. Because the sudden pain and frustration of the event can cloud your ability to think clearly, knowing you can rely on our office for prompt care can become a relief. To understand the difference between a situation that requires immediate care versus one that can wait, you can study the common symptoms of severe problems like dental infections and physical trauma. Some of these conditions can become much worse without action, so please do not try and recover on your own when they strike. When you call our team, we will counsel you through steps to take as you prepare to attend your emergency appointment.
At your Prairie Village, KS, dental practice, we are ready to help you in your time of need. This means opening our business outside of office hours whenever an emergency strikes. Although your cleanings and examinations can detect a problem before it becomes an emergency, certain events strike with no prior warning. If you knock out a tooth, crack a tooth, or have a painful infection, call us right away to begin healing your smile.
