Dental Emergencies

“A Dental Emergency Can Occur at Any Time”

At Brock Starr Dental, we are always here when you need us.  We specialize in emergency treatment and pain relief.  You should see a dentist immediately if you have any of the following:

  • A toothache
  • A swollen face
  • A broken tooth
  • Have lost a filling or a crown
  • Are bleeding after having a tooth pulled

Painless Injections

We now proudly offer painless injections to all of our patients. Painless injections work by sending a signal to your nerve receptors to essentially close the “pain gate” to your brain, allowing you to enjoy a pain-free and low-stress dental experience.

If you are having a dental emergency, call us right away or a same day appointment.  We take these situations very seriously and will try to schedule you to see a dentist immediately.

Emergency Dentist in Whitby

Dental emergencies can happen unexpectedly and often require prompt attention. Brock Starr Dental Care provides emergency dental care in Whitby for patients experiencing sudden tooth pain, broken or chipped teeth, swelling, dental infections, lost fillings or crowns, and other urgent dental concerns.

If you are experiencing a dental emergency, contact our Whitby dental office as soon as possible. Our team can assess your symptoms, determine how urgently you should be seen, and help arrange appropriate dental care.

Prompt treatment can help relieve pain, protect damaged teeth, and reduce the risk of an infection or dental problem becoming more serious.

When Should You See an Emergency Dentist?

Some dental problems should not be delayed. Contact an emergency dentist if you experience any of the following:

  • Severe or persistent toothache
  • Broken, cracked, or chipped tooth
  • Knocked-out permanent tooth
  • Facial or gum swelling
  • Dental abscess or signs of infection
  • Lost or damaged filling
  • Lost dental crown
  • Dental trauma or injury
  • Significant pain when biting or chewing
  • Bleeding that does not stop
  • Sudden dental pain that interferes with sleeping or daily activities

If you are unsure whether your situation is a dental emergency, call our office. Our team can help determine the appropriate next step based on your symptoms.

Same-Day Emergency Dental Care in Whitby

When scheduling allows, Brock Starr Dental Care works to accommodate patients who need urgent dental attention as quickly as possible.

If you have severe dental pain, swelling, a damaged tooth, or another urgent dental problem, call our office and explain your symptoms. Appointment availability can vary, so contacting the clinic early can help our team determine the soonest available option.

Our goal is to identify the cause of the problem, relieve discomfort where possible, and recommend the appropriate treatment to protect your oral health.

What to Do During a Dental Emergency

What you do before reaching the dental office may help protect the affected tooth and reduce further damage.

For a broken or chipped tooth, keep any pieces you can find and avoid chewing on the affected side.

If a permanent tooth has been knocked out, handle it carefully by the crown rather than the root. Keep the tooth moist and contact a dentist immediately.

For a lost filling or crown, avoid chewing hard foods on that side of your mouth and contact the dental office for advice.

Dental swelling or signs of infection should be assessed promptly. Do not delay professional care if swelling is increasing or pain is becoming severe.

For uncontrolled bleeding, significant facial trauma, difficulty breathing, difficulty swallowing, or other symptoms that may represent a medical emergency, seek emergency medical care.

Common Dental Emergencies We Can Assess

Our dental team can evaluate many types of urgent dental problems, including:

  • Severe tooth pain
  • Broken or cracked teeth
  • Chipped teeth
  • Dental infections and abscesses
  • Swollen or painful gums
  • Lost fillings
  • Lost or damaged crowns
  • Dental trauma
  • Pain around a wisdom tooth
  • Sudden sensitivity or pain when chewing

Treatment depends on the cause and severity of the problem. After an examination, the dentist can explain the available treatment options and next steps.
