If you’re contending with sudden pain in your mouth or you’ve just suffered a dental injury, you may be wondering whether you need an emergency dentist to evaluate your teeth and mouth. Our compassionate dentist in Mission Hills understands how frightening it can be to experience a dental emergency. We provide urgent dental care for individuals in San Diego who need timely treatment for an unexpected dental issue. Examples of dental emergencies that may require immediate attention may include:
- Unexplained pain
- A facial trauma
- An avulsed (“knocked out”) tooth
- Soft tissue infection
- Trauma from a facial injury
- Lost/broken temporary restoration
While the preceding list outlines some examples of the most common dental emergencies, there are many situations in which prompt treatment may be necessary to repair problematic dental conditions.
We understand how worrisome it can be to experience a dental emergency, especially if the damage has affected your appearance or smile. Rest assured that our team at Libby Dental strives to provide patients with the care and attention they need to alleviate pain, treat immediate issues, and elevate their oral wellness as much as possible. If necessary, our dentist can also develop a treatment plan — such as a Smile Makeover or a full mouth rehabilitation — to improve damage and restore the full integrity of your smile.
Dr. Landon Libby and our friendly team provide timely care for dental emergencies to alleviate pain and treat San Diego patients’ immediate dental needs. If you’re seeking an emergency dentist to gently address your concerns, please contact Libby Dental at our Mission Hills practice for more information.
