Call us today — or go to the ER first?
| 📞 Call us today | 🏥 Go to the ER first |
|---|---|
| Knocked-out or loose tooth | Facial swelling with fever |

Knocked-out tooth — the protocol
"Hold the tooth by the crown and do not scrub the root. If it's dirty, rinse it gently with milk or saline. Place it back in the socket when safely possible, or store it in milk or a tooth-preservation solution, and seek immediate dental care — reimplantation works best within the first hour."
Baby teeth are different: "Do not reimplant a knocked-out baby tooth — it can damage the developing permanent tooth underneath. Call us instead."
What we do — in order.
Assessment & imaging
Immediate triage, examination, and the diagnostic imaging needed to see exactly what's happening.
Pain control
Getting you comfortable is the first clinical priority — local anesthesia means treatment itself shouldn't hurt.
Stabilization
We stop the problem from getting worse. Extraction only when the tooth can't be saved — with replacement options explained first, including implants.
Cost & insurance — before care begins
For uninsured patients, the $49 emergency visit ($225 value) covers the examination and necessary diagnostic imaging. Treatment options and costs are reviewed before care begins — "you'll never be surprised by a number after the fact." We verify PPO benefits on the spot (check your plan here), and 0% apr financing may be available to qualified applicants, subject to credit approval and financing-provider terms. ▲TODO — walk-in policy wording
