- A cracked, fractured, or broken tooth
- A knocked-out (avulsed) tooth
- Dental abscesses or facial swelling
- Lost or damaged fillings or crowns
- Bleeding that won’t stop after a dental injury

If you’re unsure whether your situation is an emergency, it’s always better to call. Early treatment can prevent complications, infection, and tooth loss.
