Frequently Asked Questions

A dental emergency typically includes:

  • Severe tooth pain that doesn’t respond to over-the-counter pain medication
  • A knocked-out or partially dislodged tooth
  • Broken or cracked teeth with pain or sharp fragments
  • Severe swelling of the gums, face, or neck
  • Uncontrolled bleeding from the mouth
  • Dental abscess or infection with pain, swelling, or fever
  • Lost filling or crown causing pain or discomfort

If you’re experiencing any of these symptoms, call Emergency Dentists of Utah! immediately at (801) 659-5911.

If your tooth is knocked out, time is critical. Follow these steps immediately:

  1. Handle the tooth by the crown (top), not the root
  2. Rinse it gently with water if it’s dirty, but don’t scrub or remove any attached tissue
  3. Try to reinsert the tooth in its socket if possible
  4. If you can’t reinsert it, place the tooth in milk, saline solution, or between your cheek and gum

Call Emergency Dentists of Utah! immediately at (801) 659-5911 — the best chance of saving your tooth is getting treatment within 30 minutes

At Emergency Dentists of Utah!, we prioritize dental emergencies and make every effort to see emergency patients the same day they call. Our team is ready to provide same-day emergency care, and we’ll provide instructions over the phone for immediate relief until you can reach our office.

Emergency Dentists of Utah! is open 7 days a week from 10:00 AM to 10:00 PM so call us at (801) 659-5911 as soon as the emergency occurs, and we’ll arrange to see you as quickly as possible.

While waiting for your emergency appointment, you can try these temporary pain management techniques:

  • Take over-the-counter pain relievers like ibuprofen (Advil) or acetaminophen (Tylenol) as directed
  • Apply a cold compress to the outside of your cheek for 20 minutes on, 20 minutes off
  • Rinse with warm salt water (½ teaspoon salt in 8 oz water)
  • Use clove oil applied gently to the affected area with a cotton ball
  • Avoid very hot, cold, or sweet foods and beverages
  • Avoid chewing on the affected side

These measures are temporary and not substitutes for professional care. Call Emergency Dentists of Utah! at (801) 659-5911 for proper treatment.

Most dental insurance plans provide coverage for emergency dental procedures, often categorizing them as basic or major services. Coverage typically ranges from 50-80% after your deductible, depending on your specific plan.

Our team will work with you to maximize your insurance benefits and explain any out-of-pocket costs. We also offer payment plans for those without insurance or for costs not covered by insurance.

The most important thing is to get the care you need quickly – don’t delay treatment due to financial concerns. Call Emergency Dentists of Utah! at (801) 659-5911, and we’ll help you understand your options.

Hospital emergency rooms are generally not equipped to provide comprehensive dental care. While they can give antibiotics and pain medication for infections and manage trauma to the face and mouth, they typically cannot perform procedures like tooth extractions, root canals, or dental repairs.

An emergency dentist like Emergency Dentists of Utah! has the specialized training, equipment, and expertise to properly diagnose and treat dental emergencies, often providing definitive treatment in a single visit.

You should go to the ER if you have:

  • Severe facial trauma
  • Uncontrolled bleeding
  • Severe swelling affecting breathing or swallowing
  • Signs of severe infection (high fever, difficulty breathing)

For all other dental emergencies, call us directly at (801) 659-5911 for faster and more appropriate care.
