When to consider emergency dental treatment
You may require emergency treatment for any dental problem that cannot wait to be dealt with by booking an appointment during normal dental office hours, due to the severe pain, uncontrollable bleeding, discomfort, or risk of further dental or oral damage.

We recommend that you book an appointment or call our office while on your way (for cases that need urgent care) so we can make arrangements to reduce the waiting time, which can vary depending on the day and complexity of required treatment.
