What Counts as a Dental Emergency?

If you are dealing with any of the following, don't wait to seek care: a severe toothache, a knocked-out tooth, a broken or cracked tooth, a lost crown or filling, a dental abscess, a swollen jaw, or an injury to your gums, lips, or tongue. These situations rarely improve on their own. The longer a dental emergency goes untreated, the more painful and usually the more expensive it becomes. If you are in Needham and experiencing any of these, reach out right away so we can help you find relief.
