That’s why our team is here to provide prompt, compassionate emergency dental care when you need it most. Whether you’re experiencing a severe toothache, a broken tooth, or another urgent dental issue, we’ll do everything we can to relieve your pain, protect your oral health, and restore your smile as quickly as possible.
 
What Is a Dental Emergency?
Dental emergencies can vary in severity, but they all require prompt attention to prevent further damage or complications. Common dental emergencies include:
 
• Severe or persistent tooth pain
• Knocked-out or loosened teeth
• Cracked, chipped, or broken teeth
• Lost or damaged fillings, crowns, or bridges
• Gum or jaw swelling
• Oral infections or abscesses
• Bleeding that doesn’t stop
 
If you experience any of these issues, contact Citi Dental Brookline right away. Acting quickly can make the difference between saving and losing a tooth, and can also help prevent more serious health concerns.
 
What to Expect During an Emergency Visit
When you arrive for your emergency appointment, our team will make your comfort our top priority. We’ll start by assessing your situation and taking any necessary digital X-rays to understand the cause of the problem. Once we’ve identified the issue, our experienced dentists will discuss your treatment options and perform the necessary care to relieve your pain and stabilize your dental health.
 
Depending on your needs, treatment may involve repairing a damaged tooth, addressing infection, replacing lost restorations, or other urgent procedures. Our goal is always to provide immediate relief while ensuring long-term oral health and function.
 
Managing Pain Before Your Appointment
If you can’t get to our office immediately, there are a few steps you can take to minimize discomfort. Rinse your mouth gently with warm water, apply a cold compress to reduce swelling, and take over-the-counter pain relievers as needed. Avoid chewing on the affected side and keep any knocked-out teeth moist (in milk or saliva) until you can see us.
