When you’re in pain, you shouldn’t have to wait. Dental emergencies like severe toothaches, oral injuries, and broken restorations require prompt attention – and at DNTL Hub in Elk Grove, we’re here when you need us most. Dr. Devan Dalla and our experienced team offer emergency dental care for both new and existing patients. If you’re dealing with sudden tooth pain, trauma, or swelling, contact us right away. We keep time in our schedule for urgent visits and often provide same-day care to relieve discomfort and protect your smile from further damage.
Urgent Dental Care When It Matters Most
Not all dental problems can wait for a regular appointment. Emergencies involving pain, infection, or injury need to be evaluated immediately to avoid complications or tooth loss. At DNTL Hub, we can treat a wide range of urgent issues and help you determine what to do until you reach our office.
Common dental emergencies we treat include:
- Dislodged or knocked-out teeth
- Cracked or broken teeth
- Severe tooth pain or pressure
- Damaged crowns or fillings
- Swollen gums or jaw
- Bleeding or soft tissue injury
- Signs of infection, such as a metallic taste or fever
If you’re unsure whether your situation requires emergency treatment, call us. Our team will guide you through first-aid steps and let you know when to come in.
What to Do in a Dental Emergency
Time is critical—especially if a tooth is knocked out. Pick it up by the crown (not the root), gently rinse it if dirty, and try placing it back in the socket. If that’s not possible, store it in a container of milk or saliva and bring it with you. The sooner we see you, the better chance we have of saving the tooth.
For other emergencies, avoid chewing on the affected side, use a cold compress for swelling, and take over-the-counter pain relief as directed. Never ignore signs of infection or trauma—quick action protects your health and your smile.
