Frequently Asked Question
A dental emergency includes severe tooth pain, knocked-out teeth, broken or cracked teeth, infections, or excessive bleeding. Any condition causing intense discomfort or risk of permanent damage should be treated immediately by a dentist.
If a tooth is knocked out, handle it by the crown, not the root. Rinse gently without scrubbing and try to place it back in the socket. If not possible, keep it in milk or saliva and see a dentist within 30–60 minutes for the best chance of saving it.
You should see a dentist as soon as possible ideally within the same day. Quick treatment can relieve pain, prevent infection, and increase the chances of saving your tooth or avoiding more serious complications.
While waiting, rinse your mouth with warm salt water, use a cold compress to reduce swelling, and take over-the-counter pain relief if needed. Avoid chewing on the affected area and keep any broken tooth pieces safe.
For a severe toothache at night, rinse with warm salt water, floss gently to remove debris, and take pain relief medication. Avoid very hot or cold foods and contact an emergency dentist as soon as possible for proper treatment.
Yes, a broken tooth can often be repaired depending on the severity. Treatments may include bonding, crowns, or veneers. In more serious cases, root canal therapy or extraction may be required to restore oral health.

Aesthetic Family Dental has been my dentist for over a year and the service they provide is top tier. Front desk concierge is very polite, patient and very accommodating. To sum up the Docs review(both of them), I feel asleep during my appointment and I got a root canal. With that being said they do a VERY great job with their patients. Need a Dentist? This is where you want to come. Stay blessed

I would come here even if I didn't need to. The staff is amazing sweet and caring but also very knowledgeable and know what they are doing. I never had wait for very long but the office and schedule was always full. The dentist are almost magical and extremely talented. My case was not easy and I had seen dozen or so dentist prior to coming here and was let down by all of them. The dentist here are understanding, considerate and very patient. My issues were difficult to talk about and even more difficult to show and they were very considerate of that at every stage. Amazing place everyone should come here. Thank you to all the staff and dentist your guys are amazing.
