What is a Dental Emergency?

A dental emergency is any issue that causes severe pain, bleeding, infection, or loss of a tooth. If you’re unsure whether your situation requires immediate care, ask yourself:


  • Am I experiencing severe tooth pain or inflammation that won’t go away?
  • Do I have swelling, pus or abscess-like symptoms?
  • Have I suffered a knocked-out tooth or a broken tooth?
  • Is my gum disease causing bleeding gums or oral pain?
  • Do I have a lost filling, chipped crown, or broken dentures?
  • Is my tooth sensitivity worsening, making it difficult to eat or drink?

If you answered yes to any of these questions, contact our office right away at 720-464-7277 for an emergency appointment.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I go to the emergency room for a dental emergency?
While a local emergency room can provide pain medication and antibiotics for oral infections, they typically do not offer dental restorations or permanent solutions to treat cracked teeth or tooth pain. If you have a knocked-out tooth, lost filling, or cracked tooth, it’s best to see a trusted emergency dentist as soon as possible for immediate care.
What should I do if I have a very sensitive tooth?
To treat tooth sensitivity, avoid sweet foods, cold drinks, and acidic foods that can worsen discomfort. Try using a desensitizing toothpaste, and if pain persists, schedule an appointment for a dental exam. Sensitivity may indicate gum disease, a cracked tooth, or tooth decay, all of which require professional treatment.
Can I treat a lost filling at home?
If you lose a filling, you can temporarily cover the tooth with dental wax to protect it from further damage. However, this is not a permanent fix. A same-day appointment with an emergency dentist is recommended to replace the filling with a composite resin or dental crown for long-term protection.
How can I prevent dental emergencies?
To prevent dental emergencies, follow these tips:
  • Floss daily and brush twice a day to maintain good dental health
  • Use a nightguard if you have teeth grinding to prevent cracked teeth
  • Avoid chewing on ice, popcorn kernels, or hard candy
  • Wear a mouthguard for sports to prevent oral injuries
  • Keep up with routine dental care to catch small issues before they become major problems
How do I know if I need a root canal?
If you have persistent tooth pain, or swelling, you may need root canal therapy to remove an infection and save your natural tooth. Delaying treatment can lead to more severe pain, abscesses, and even tooth loss, so it’s important to seek urgent dental care if you notice these symptoms.
