What is emergency dentistry?

Emergency dentistry services can address tooth damage, loss, or infection that requires the immediate attention of an experienced dentist.

Madison Dental Spa offers comprehensive emergency dentistry services whenever you need treatment for an urgent dental issue. Dr. Chason is on-call to address unexpected dental injuries or infections.

Emergency dental evaluations and customized treatment plans are available for adults and children in a comfortable office environment.

When would I need emergency dentistry services?

You might need emergency dentistry care if you have an accident that causes damage to your teeth, including:

• Fractures
• Chips
• Cracks
• Tooth loss (knocked-out tooth)

You can also schedule an emergency dentistry appointment if you have signs of a dental infection, such as severe tooth pain or gum inflammation, or bleeding. If left untreated, tooth infections can spread to other areas of your body and lead to more serious health complications.

If you’re not sure if your dental issue requires emergency care, you can call Madison Dental Spa and speak with the staff about your condition.

What happens during an emergency dentistry visit?

During your emergency dentistry visit at Madison Dental Spa, Dr. Chason performs a complete dental exam, checking your teeth and gums for damage. He may also take X-rays of your teeth and jawbone to determine what kind of treatment you need.

When you have an infection, you may need to take antibiotics to clear it before you can undergo further dental work. Dr. Chason can also recommend medications you can take to ease tooth pain and reduce gum inflammation.

A range of restorative dentistry services is available to repair damaged or infected teeth or replace lost teeth. Depending on the nature of your condition and its severity, Dr. Chason may recommend a:

• Tooth-colored filling
• Crown
• Bridge
• Root canal
• Extraction
• Dental implant

If you have broken or chipped teeth, Dr. Chason can determine if you’re a candidate for cosmetic dentistry procedures like veneers or bonding to improve the appearance of your smile.  

You may need to schedule a follow-up visit, so Dr. Chason can reassess your dental health and ensure you don’t require any additional treatments.
