Emergency Dentistry
Dental emergencies can happen unexpectedly, and our team is committed to providing prompt, effective care. Whether it’s a simple filling or a complex procedure, we’re here to help.
What is Emergency Dentistry?
Emergency dentistry is a branch of dental care that focuses on urgent problems involving the teeth, gums, or mouth that need immediate attention to relieve pain, stop bleeding, or prevent serious complications.
In case of a dental emergency:
If you're experiencing severe pain or have suffered dental trauma, seek care as soon as possible. Acting quickly can make a major difference—especially when trying to save a knocked-out or damaged tooth.
​
Until you can see a dentist, keep any dislodged tooth moist (preferably in milk or by gently placing it back in the socket without touching the root). If symptoms become severe or life-threatening, seek emergency medical care immediately.
Cost and Insurance
Emergency dentistry costs at Carnelian vary based on the issue and treatment needed. Many procedures are partly covered by private insurance, and some may qualify under the CDCP, depending on eligibility and clinical need.
​
Our team provides clear estimates, reviews coverage when possible, and offers direct insurance billing to make urgent care as stress-free as possible.
