We understand that some dental issues and pain need to be dealt with promptly, thats why our emergency care line is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Below you will find helpful information regarding a few types of common dental emergencies and ways to help avoid them.
Dental emergencies can strike anyone, but our patients who commit to regular dental care visits present with significantly fewer problems over time. Professional dental exams at our practice allow us to bring a blend of proactive efforts to you.
When you visit our practice we review many aspects of your health before we clean your tooth surfaces. Things like chipped teeth, high sensitivity or sore gums could all be the beginnings of bigger problems down the road.
Regular dental visits prove vital in fixing and preventing decay and gum disease as you keep up your daily home teeth cleaning habits. Together, with a proactive approach, we can prevent many issues from becoming dental emergencies.
Locate and save the tooth or its fragments handling them as little as possible, avoid touching root portions. Briefly rinse the tooth with milk. If the tooth is not broken, try to reinsert it in its socket. If the tooth is broken or you cannot reinsert it, submerge it in milk. Time is critical. Call us immediately!
Take out any easily removed pieces, then cover any remaining sharp pieces with over-the-counter orthodontic wax. Broken appliances are rarely emergencies. However, If metal is stuck in your mouth tissue, do not attempt to remove it. Immediately call our office for emergency assistance.
Clean the affected area thoroughly, dislodging any impacted food or debris. Rinse your mouth with warm salt water or hydrogen peroxide diluted with water (50/50). If there is any visible swelling, apply a cold compress to the area. Next, call our office immediately for emergency assistance.

I had a dental emergency late Friday afternoon and they worked me in as a new patient. The entire staff from the front office to Dr. M were very professional and nice!! As it was almost time for them to close they never made me feel like an inconvenience and took their time. I highly recommend them and will definitely be going back for future services.

The best dental office I have ever visited. From initial greeting to service, be you will be treated like family. The staff is kind and knowledgeable. The pricing is another plus, backed up with expert service. I've never had to use pain medicine for any of the procedures or treatments I've had done there. You can be guaranteed the work will be second to none and the prices do not match the quality of the work done. I've been a repeat customer for years, & compared to any other dentist, I've vi sited Dr. Gaba's office is the best.

Worst place I have ever been. Staff was talking about lunch breaks and having arguments while in the middle of cleaning my teeth. Unprofessional and rude.

Friday was the first time I came to this office with my daughter, and the experience was very welcoming the assistant ladies are very professional and polite. The office is very neat and clean. The doctors are very patient and explained in detail what procedures my daughter and I needed done. I appreciate the visit and would definitely recommend it.

I have gotten my wisdom teeth extracted by every doctor here. Here are my opinions. Dr. Tran is #1 best dentist! 10/10 favorite one cause he is the most gentle, his hands were perfectly designed to remove teeth. Also an expert at comforting talk to reduces anxiety before surgery. Dr. Safa is quick and always concerned with your comfort level. She communicates well and effectively, very kind she also is very good with words to reduce anxiety. I was at ease! Dr. Gaba had to remove a very difficult wisdom tooth (it was sideways) Least favorite ONLY because the complexity of the surgery due to the position of the tooth made it a difficult experience for me. But he had the experience and know how to remove the stubborn tooth without complications. Highly recommend this place.
