Emergency Care

Is this a dental emergency?

If you’re in pain, swelling, or something suddenly broke, it’s best to call. Many dental emergencies get worse when delayed—and early care often means simpler treatment.

Rule of thumb: If it hurts, is swollen, bleeding, or affecting your bite, it’s worth having a dentist look at it.

Quick Guidance

What to do right now

Here are simple steps to protect your tooth and reduce discomfort until you can be seen. If you’re unsure, call our office at 425-284-3881.

Toothache / severe pain
  • Rinse gently with warm salt water.
  • Use a cold compress on the cheek (10–15 minutes at a time).
  • Avoid chewing on that side.
  • Do not place aspirin on the tooth or gums.
Swelling / possible infection
  • Cold compress can help reduce swelling.
  • Rinse with warm salt water a few times a day.
  • Call promptly—swelling can worsen quickly.
  • If you have trouble breathing or swallowing, seek urgent medical care.
Broken tooth / chipped tooth
  • Rinse gently and keep the area clean.
  • If sharp, cover with dental wax (or sugar-free gum) temporarily.
  • Save any pieces if you can.
  • Avoid hard foods until you’re seen.
Lost filling / crown
  • Keep the tooth clean and avoid sticky/hard foods.
  • If you still have the crown, bring it with you.
  • Temporary dental cement from a pharmacy can help briefly (if needed).
  • Call soon—exposed teeth often become very sensitive.
Knocked-out tooth
  • Time matters. Call immediately.
  • Pick up the tooth by the crown (not the root) and rinse gently if dirty.
  • If possible, place it back in the socket or keep it in milk/saline.
  • Come to the office right away.

Should I go to the ER or a dentist?
