Dental pain is tough, and we know how urgent it feels. Whether you’re a current patient or new to our practice, we make sure to leave room in our schedule each day to see Austinites with tooth or gum pain.
When you come in, we’ll start with a quick but thorough evaluation of the problem area. This includes taking an X-ray and conducting a focused, 15-30 minute examination—what we call a limited exam.
One of our dentists will walk you through the situation, showing you clear images of what’s going on and explaining your treatment options. We’ll make sure you leave with a solid plan to get you back to feeling comfortable.
A dental emergency refers to any urgent dental issue that requires immediate attention to alleviate pain, prevent further damage, or protect your overall oral health. If you’re experiencing pain rated 5 or above on a scale of 1-10, it’s time to take action and contact us for help.
