- A cracked, chipped, or broken tooth, especially with pain or sharp edges
- A lost filling, crown, or other restoration
- A dental abscess or swelling in the gums or jaw
- Uncontrolled bleeding in the mouth following an injury

Common Dental Emergencies We Treat in Glendale
Dental emergencies can happen unexpectedly and often require prompt attention to relieve pain, prevent complications, and protect your oral health. Our team provides timely care for a wide range of urgent dental concerns, helping patients get the treatment they need when it matters most.
01
Severe Toothache
Tooth pain that is intense, persistent, or worsening is almost always a sign that something needs attention. Common causes include deep decay, a cracked tooth, an abscess, or an exposed nerve. We will identify the source of the pain and provide relief, whether through medication, a procedure, or both.
02
Knocked-Out Tooth
A knocked-out tooth is one of the most time-sensitive dental emergencies. If you can reach our office within one to two hours of the injury and handle the tooth properly in the meantime, there is a chance the tooth can be reinserted and saved. Call us immediately and we will walk you through what to do while you make your way to our office.
03
Cracked or Broken Tooth
A cracked or fractured tooth can range from a minor cosmetic issue to a serious structural problem depending on the location and severity of the break. Significant cracks that affect the inner layers of the tooth can cause intense pain and require prompt care to prevent further damage or infection.
04
Lost Filling or Crown
When a filling or crown falls out, the underlying tooth is exposed and vulnerable to sensitivity, damage, and decay. While not always immediately painful, a lost restoration should be addressed promptly to protect the tooth and avoid more extensive treatment.
05
Dental Abscess
An abscess is a bacterial infection that forms at the root of a tooth or in the surrounding gum tissue. It can cause throbbing pain, swelling, fever, and a foul taste in the mouth. Dental abscesses do not resolve on their own and can become serious if left untreated. This is a situation that requires same-day care.
06
Soft Tissue Injuries
Cuts, lacerations, or injuries to the lips, tongue, cheeks, or gums can bleed significantly. If bleeding does not slow with gentle pressure after 10 to 15 minutes, contact our office or seek emergency medical care.
Calm, Efficient Care in a Stressful Moment
