The first step you should always take during a dental emergency is to call our office so we can plan a visit as soon as possible. When you arrive, we’ll examine your mouth and capture X-rays to help us diagnose the issue at hand and come up with a treatment plan. Once we have, we’ll walk you through our findings and answer any questions you may have before moving forward. Before you leave, we’ll schedule any follow-up appointments, so you have them on your calendar.
