How do I know if I am having a dental emergency?

When most people contact us for a dental emergency, it is because they have experienced some kind of trauma, such as a broken tooth, or they are having tooth pain. Both of these reasons mean it is time to give us a call. We hold a couple of emergency appointments each day so that we can take care of our patients who experience unexpected dental emergencies. 

Calling us right away, at the first sign that something is wrong, gives us the chance to bring you in and address your problem quickly.

A dental emergency appointment will begin by going over any changes to your oral health, including your most recent symptoms. An x-ray will give Dr. Dhoon an image for diagnosis. And an intraoral picture will allow the two of you to see the problem and discuss the options together. Once Dr. Dhoon identifies the problem, he will outline the treatment options available to restore your health and comfort.

Even if you need root canal therapy or a dental extraction, Dr. Dhoon can provide those services right here. In most cases, you will not need a referral to a specialist. Dr. Dhoon provides comfortable treatment when you need it most.

If you have tooth pain, don’t wait! Our Greeley Dental Care team will take excellent care of you.
