When to Call an Emergency Dentist

If you're in pain or unsure whether your dental issue is an emergency, don’t wait. Some issues may seem minor but can become serious without immediate treatment.

Common dental emergencies we treat include:

  • Severe toothaches
  • Broken or cracked teeth
  • Knocked-out (avulsed) teeth
  • Lost fillings or crowns
  • Dental abscesses or infections
  • Swelling in the face, jaw, or gums
  • Bleeding that doesn’t stop
  • Trauma from an accident or injury

Call us right away at (904) 606-5255. In most cases, we can see you the same day.

What to Expect During an Emergency Visit

  1. Prompt, Friendly Intake
    We'll get you checked in quickly and listen to what you're experiencing.
  2. Urgent Evaluation
    Dr. Lucy Park will assess your condition and take digital X-rays if needed to understand the full picture.
  3. Immediate Relief
    Our first priority is reducing pain, controlling infection, or stabilizing damage. In many cases, we can provide treatment during the same visit.
  4. Clear Next Steps
    If additional treatment is required, we'll explain your options and create a plan — no pressure, no surprises.

Tips for Common Dental Emergencies

Tooth Knocked Out:
Keep the tooth moist in milk or saliva and bring it to your appointment immediately. Time is critical for reattachment.

Severe Toothache:
Rinse with warm salt water. Avoid aspirin directly on the gum. Call us as soon as possible to address the root cause.

Broken Tooth or Filling:
Save any pieces, avoid chewing on the damaged side, and contact us for a same-day visit.

Swelling or Abscess:
This may indicate an infection requiring urgent attention. Left untreated, it can spread quickly and lead to serious complications.
