Service description
Relief When You Need It Most
A sudden, severe toothache, a broken tooth, or a dental abscess can be a painful and alarming experience. When a dental emergency strikes, you need immediate care from a team you can trust. At Union Dental, we prioritize dental emergencies to provide the swift, effective treatment necessary to alleviate your pain, address the underlying issue, and prevent further complications.
The "Union Dental Way": Our Commitment During Your Emergency
We understand that a dental emergency is stressful, and our first priority is to take care of you. When you call us, we will carefully screen your situation to ensure it's not a medical emergency requiring a hospital visit. For dental emergencies, we always do our best to see you the same day during our office hours. We believe in doing the right thing for our patients; if a serious issue like an abscess occurs at the end of the day, we will stay to take care of you so you don't have to endure the pain any longer than necessary.
Our process
Common Dental Emergencies We Treat
Our experienced team is equipped to handle a wide range of urgent dental issues. If you are experiencing any of the following, please contact us immediately:
Severe Toothache or Pain
Persistent, severe pain in your tooth or gums is a sign that something is wrong. We will diagnose the source of the pain and provide relief.
Broken, Chipped, or Knocked-Out Tooth
Whether from an accident or biting down on something hard, a broken tooth requires immediate attention. We do our best to save your tooth and restore your smile, especially when it involves the front teeth.
Dental Abscess or Swelling
An abscess is a serious infection at the root of a tooth or in the space between the teeth and gums. We can provide treatment, such as an incision and drainage, to address the infection and alleviate pain.
Lost Filling or Crown
Losing a filling or crown can expose the sensitive inner parts of your tooth, causing pain and leaving it vulnerable to damage.
