Common Dental Emergencies
Persistent
Toothache
While some tooth pain stems from harmless tooth sensitivity, it can also be a sign of a serious problem. If your pain lasts more than a day or is worsening, we’d rather you give us a call than wait too long.
Knocked-Out
Tooth
This is a dental emergency – contact SoBo Dental Care immediately.Do not touch the root of the tooth. If you can, gently insert the tooth back into the open socket in your gums. Do not force it into the socket. If you can’t, keep it between your gums and cheek on the way to our office. Do not rinse or transport the tooth in water.
Broken or
Chipped Tooth
You could be vulnerable to infection.
A severe break, chip, or fracture in a tooth can expose the inner structure. This requires prompt treatment to seal and repair the tooth before bacteria take hold. The sooner we see you, the better the outcome.
Lost Dental Crown
or Filling
Your tooth is exposed and needs attentionLosing a dental crown or filling compromises the integrity of your tooth. It weakens the structure and leaves it vulnerable to sensitivity, decay, and infection.We’ll get you treated and feeling comfortable as soon as possible.
Abscess
A sign of advanced infection requiring urgent careAn abscess causes severe pain, swelling, and sometimes fever. It’s hiding an advanced bacterial infection that can spread and lead to serious, even life-threatening, complications if not treated promptly. Call us right away.
Post-Extraction or
Surgery Complications
Complications after surgery need prompt care. Uncontrolled bleeding, a dry socket (dislodged blood clot), or signs of infection following a tooth extraction or oral surgery require immediate attention. To support proper healing and prevent further complications, don’t wait to call.

Can You Wait?
When in doubt, always call us. At SoBo Dental Care, we’ll help you figure out if your situation needs immediate care or can allow a short wait. Here are a few at-home steps that can ease any discomfort until we can see you.
Over-the-Counter Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Medications (NSAIDs)
Avoid taking aspirin, as this can worsen bleeding, but NSAIDs (Ibuprofen) can help relieve pain and swelling.
Topical Toothache
Relief
Toothache creams and gels are available over-the-counter and can provide temporary relief from a toothache or other sensitivity when applied to the teeth and gums.
Cold
Compress
Apply a cold compress to the outside of your cheek over the area that is swollen or painful.
Keeping Your Smile Safe
Dental emergencies may not be predictable, but a healthy, well-maintained smile is more resilient. Staying on top of your hygiene habits and routine care can help your risk of damage.
- Avoid hard candy or chewing ice
- Wear a mouth guard while playing sports
- Don’t use your teeth as tools to tear packages, open bottles, etc.
- Attend your regular 6-month dental visits
