Common Dental Emergencies We Treat
Our skilled dentists, including Dr. William Wang, Dr. Lourdes “Millie” Cortes, Dr. Chad Burton, and Dr. Gibson Boswell, handle a wide range of dental emergencies, including:
- Severe Tooth Pain: Sudden or intense tooth pain could be a sign of infection, decay, or damage. We can quickly diagnose and treat the underlying cause.
- Broken or Chipped Teeth: Whether due to injury or biting down on something hard, a broken or chipped tooth should be addressed immediately to prevent further damage.
- Knocked-Out Tooth: Acting quickly can increase the chances of saving a knocked-out tooth. Keep the tooth moist and contact us right away for guidance.
- Lost Fillings or Crowns: When a filling or crown falls out, it leaves the tooth vulnerable to damage and decay. Our team can repair or replace the restoration.
- Swelling or Abscesses: Infections can cause swelling, abscesses, and significant discomfort. Immediate care is essential to prevent the infection from spreading.
If you’re experiencing any of these symptoms or have another dental emergency, don’t hesitate to reach out. We provide emergency dental services to families in South Tampa, Manhattan, Waters Ave, Midtown, Ballast Point, Hillsborough, and the surrounding Tampa Bay area.

Frequently Asked Questions
What should I do if I have a knocked-out tooth?
Keep the tooth moist by placing it back in its socket (if possible) or in milk. Contact us immediately to improve the chances of saving the tooth.
How can I relieve a severe toothache before my appointment?
Rinsing with warm salt water and applying a cold compress can help reduce pain and swelling. Avoid placing aspirin directly on the gum as this can irritate the tissue.
Is a lost filling considered an emergency?
Yes, a lost filling leaves your tooth vulnerable to further decay and damage. Schedule an emergency appointment as soon as possible.
