The Importance Of Emergency Care

The sooner you get emergency care, the sooner you can get relief from your pain and discomfort. You will also reduce your risk of further complications, which can save you time and money, and you’ll be able to get back to your day-to-day life without tooth pain or worries about your oral health.

What To Do During A Dental Emergency

Call Corona Smile Shoppe Immediately

If you’re having an emergency, the first thing you should do is call us at (951) 444-7010 to tell us about the situation, and schedule a same-day or weekend appointment.

Deal With Pain & Discomfort

After you get an appointment, we recommend taking steps to treat your condition. Bleeding, if present, can be treated by applying pressure to the site with clean gauze or cotton balls. Taking medication like ibuprofen can help with pain, and ice packs can also be applied to the cheek near the affected area to help with swelling and discomfort.

See Dr. Martinez For Your Appointment

Come into our office in Corona as soon as you can. To permanently treat your condition, you need to see an experienced emergency dentist like Dr. Martinez. He will examine your mouth, then discuss the best next steps for resolving your dental emergency.

Frequently Asked Questions

Should I Go To The ER?

Going to the ER is usually not a good idea unless you truly believe your life is at risk due to a very serious injury like a broken jaw. Most ERs do not have dentists on staff to treat you. Even if you do get treatment from the ER, it will be much more expensive compared to seeing an emergency dentist.

How Soon Do I Need To See A Dentist?

For a knocked-out tooth or very loose tooth, you need to see the dentist within 1-2 hours. Most other dental emergencies are not quite as urgent, but should be treated with same-day care whenever possible.

Is A Toothache An Emergency?

Yes. A toothache usually indicates an infected tooth or another serious oral health issue. If you’re experiencing a lot of tooth pain, you should get an emergency appointment at Corona Smile Shoppe.

What If I’m Not Sure That It’s An Emergency?

It’s better to be safe than sorry. Call us at (951) 444-7010 to discuss your situation in more detail, and we’ll determine if you need emergency care for your situation.

Common Types Of Dental Emergencies
