Dental 911! After-Hours Emergency

June 23, 2015 By Heather Horsey

No one wishes for a knocked-out tooth. But the truth is – it can happen. Expect the unexpected! In case of (dental) emergency:

STOP

…and dial your dentist. Your regular dentist should be your first call. Get your dentist’s digits now…before an accident happens. Find out how to contact him or her after normal office hours and save it in your cell.

DROP

…your pain level as soon as possible. Apply a cold compress to reduce swelling and/or any bleeding.

ROLL

…with your dentist’s advice. You may need to have an emergency office visit. 

A dental emergency can take place anywhere. If you happen to be on vacation when a tooth terror strikes, find an in-network dentist in the area. This will help ensure lower out-of-pocket costs. Remember – contact your regular dentist first to ensure the best care plan.
