At Wynkoop Dentistry, we’re here for you when the unexpected happens. Whether you’re dealing with a sudden toothache, a broken tooth, or a dental injury, our team provides prompt, expert emergency dental care to relieve pain, protect your health, and restore your smile — all in a calm, welcoming environment.
Emergency dentistry focuses on treating urgent dental problems that require immediate attention. These can include severe tooth pain, dental trauma, infections, and other conditions that can’t wait for a routine appointment. Getting timely care can make all the difference in saving a tooth, preventing complications, and easing your discomfort.
Prompt emergency treatment can make all the difference in protecting your smile — and your health. Here’s why acting fast matters:
Untreated dental infections can lead to serious health complications — early care safeguards your well-being.
Timely care can often save teeth and prevent the need for more extensive procedures later.
Address discomfort right away with effective, targeted treatment.
We’re here to help you navigate any dental emergency with fast, personalized care. Some of the most common issues we treat include:
An abscess is a serious infection that can spread if left untreated. Immediate care is essential to manage pain and prevent complications.
When a filling or crown falls out, it leaves the tooth vulnerable. We’ll work to quickly restore your tooth and prevent additional damage.
If a tooth is knocked out, time is critical. Quick action can sometimes save the tooth and allow it to be successfully reimplanted.
Whether from an accident or biting down on something hard, damaged teeth need immediate attention to prevent further fractures or infection.
Intense, persistent tooth pain can signal an infection or other serious dental problem. Early treatment can relieve discomfort and protect your overall health.
If you’re experiencing a dental emergency, contact Wynkoop Dentistry immediately. Our team will guide you on next steps and get you seen as soon as possible.
Apply a cold compress to the outside of your mouth to reduce swelling and take over-the-counter pain relievers if needed — but avoid aspirin if there’s bleeding.
If a tooth has been knocked out, hold it by the crown (top), not the root. Keep it moist in milk or saliva and bring it with you to your appointment.
Don’t ignore severe symptoms, and avoid eating hard foods, applying heat, or trying to “fix” a damaged tooth yourself. Getting prompt professional care is key to the best outcome.
Many dental insurance plans cover emergency treatments. Our team can help you understand your benefits and maximize your coverage.
Hospitals can help with infections and pain management, but they typically don’t have dentists on staff. It’s best to contact a dentist directly for tooth-related emergencies whenever possible.
If possible, gently rinse the tooth (without scrubbing it) and try to place it back in the socket. If that’s not possible, keep it moist in milk or saliva and seek immediate dental care.
The entire staff here is so caring and welcoming. They have always accommodated my general fear of dental work and always take the time to talk about how I am doing, not just how my teeth are doing. Both my husband and I go to Wynkoop Dentistry and I would recommend them to anyone.
I found the perfect dental office for me and my 11 year old daughter, whom isn’t as anxious about her dental appts now. Very friendly and professional staff which takes the time to properly clean and examine your teeth. I highly recommend this office.
I love this place! They are all so friendly and helpful. The dental work they are performed has all been high quality and long lasting.
Most pleasant dental experience I’ve ever had. The dentist and assistant worked great together and made sure I was comfortable throughout the entire visit.
We’ve been using Wynkoop Dentistry for the past 3 years, and couldn’t be happier! EVERYTHING about this office and their staff is top-notch! They are friendly, professional, and concerned on every issue, and do whatever necessary to make you comfortable. Love love love them! Most highly recommend!!!!
I can’t say enough great things about Wynkoop Dentistry and everyone there! Grew up dreading going to the dentist and they have made it such a great experience I now love going! Thank you!
Everyone was friendly and professional. They make sure to explain everything clearly and check in with you in terms of what everything will cost before doing anything so that there are no surprises. I had a cavity filled and it was pain-free. Glad a friend recommended them to me.
Staff has been great to work with. I’ve had several issues and they always fit me in and are very reasonable with cost of work. They work with my insurance to ensure I receive maximum benefit and stand behind their work. Couldn’t be more pleased!
