Emergency Dentistry in Calgary, AB
Anytime or anyplace can experience a dental emergency. Pain may come from the tooth, the tissues around it, or it may seem to come from the teeth but actually come from somewhere else (Orofacial pain).
From a broken/chipped/fractured/knocked out tooth, toothache, swelling to sensitivity and pain in the teeth, gums and jaw can be examined by dentist. Specific treatment options for the relief of pain are discussed. In some cases, when infection is involved, patient requires taking antibiotics prior to have any dental treatment.
The best way to prevent dental emergency is to have routine dental check-ups with the dentist. During these visits, the dentist will check for loose/ broken fillings and crowns as well as any signs of decay, infection and gum disease.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is considered a dental emergency?
A dental emergency includes severe tooth pain, a knocked-out tooth, a broken or cracked tooth, uncontrolled bleeding, facial swelling, dental abscesses, or any injury to the mouth that requires immediate attention.
What should I do if I have a severe toothache?
Rinse your mouth with warm water, gently floss to remove any trapped food, and avoid placing aspirin directly on the gums. Contact our office as soon as possible so we can identify and treat the cause of your pain.
Can I get a same-day emergency dental appointment?
Yes. We do our best to accommodate same-day emergency appointments whenever possible. Please call us immediately so we can assess your situation and schedule you as quickly as possible.
What should I do if my tooth gets knocked out?
Handle the tooth by the crown (not the root), gently rinse it if dirty, and try to place it back into the socket. If that’s not possible, keep it in milk or saliva and visit us immediately. Prompt treatment offers the best chance of saving the tooth.
Is a chipped or broken tooth a dental emergency?
It can be. Small chips may not require urgent care, but larger fractures, pain, bleeding, or exposed tooth structure should be treated as soon as possible to prevent further damage or infection.
What if I lose a filling or crown?
Keep the area clean and avoid chewing on that side of your mouth. If possible, bring the crown with you. Contact us promptly so we can repair or replace the restoration.
What are the signs of a dental abscess?
Common signs include severe tooth pain, swelling of the gums or face, a bad taste in the mouth, pus drainage, fever, or difficulty swallowing. A dental abscess requires immediate professional treatment.
Can you treat dental emergencies for new patients?
Yes. We welcome both new and existing patients for emergency dental care and will do our best to see you as quickly as possible.
What should I do if my child has a dental emergency?
Remain calm and contact us immediately. Whether it’s a knocked-out tooth, chipped tooth, severe toothache, or mouth injury, we’ll provide guidance over the phone and arrange prompt treatment.
How can I manage dental pain before my appointment?
You may use an over-the-counter pain reliever as directed, apply a cold compress to reduce swelling, and avoid chewing on the affected side. Do not place pain medication directly on your gums.
Do you treat broken dentures or dental appliances?
Yes. If your denture, retainer, or other dental appliance breaks or causes discomfort, contact us. We’ll assess the damage and recommend the appropriate repair or replacement.
Can a dental infection become serious?
Yes. Untreated dental infections can spread to other areas of the body and may lead to serious health complications. Prompt treatment is important to relieve pain and prevent the infection from worsening.
Will emergency dental treatment be covered by insurance?
Coverage depends on your dental insurance plan and the type of treatment required. Our team can help review your benefits and explain any out-of-pocket costs before treatment whenever possible.
How can I reduce the risk of dental emergencies?
Maintain regular dental checkups, wear a mouthguard during sports, avoid chewing hard objects like ice or pens, and seek treatment promptly if you notice pain, loose teeth, or damaged restorations.
How quickly should I seek treatment for a dental emergency?
As soon as possible. Many dental emergencies, especially knocked-out teeth, infections, and severe pain, have better outcomes when treated promptly.
Do you offer emergency dental care for infections and swelling?
Yes. We provide emergency evaluations and treatment for dental infections, abscesses, and facial swelling to relieve discomfort and prevent complications.
