Their FAQ
Answers from their website.
How do I know if I need an emergency dental appointment?
Any issue that is causing you pain or discomfort may be cause for a trip to the emergency dentist. Common problems we see include: a toothache that is continuously getting worse; inability to chew, brush your teeth, or speak; swollen or bleeding gums; a broken, loose, or missing tooth. While these are common issues, anything that's causing you concern warrants a call to see if an emergency dentist appointment is necessary.
What should I do if I break a tooth?
A broken, lost, or cracked tooth is cause to call our emergency dentist. Delaying treatment can lead to further damage and complications, such as infection or decay, so seek prompt treatment at the first sign of a chipped tooth. Our dentists are on call and can help today, and if we can't get started on a permanent treatment right away, we'll give you a temporary solution to help you feel better until your follow-up.
Do you offer same-day emergency appointments?
Yes. We offer emergency appointments to existing and new patients. There's no reason to wait for treatment: our dentists are on call and can help today. If we can't fix your issue right then and there, we'll provide a temporary solution to help you feel better and schedule a follow-up appointment.
Should I call 911 or go to the emergency room for a toothache?
While an emergency room may be able to lessen the pain, the only way to fix the underlying problem is through dental care. With that said, if you are experiencing a serious facial injury not involving your teeth, we recommend going to the emergency room.
Can all-on-4 implants replace my existing dentures?
Yes, all-on-4 implants can serve as a permanent, stable replacement for existing dentures, offering a fixed solution that doesn't slip or require removal for cleaning.
How do all-on-4 implants compare to traditional dentures in terms of feel and function?
All-on-4 implants feel and function more like natural teeth compared to traditional dentures, providing greater comfort, improved chewing ability, and no risk of slipping.
What are the benefits and drawbacks of dental implants?
Dental implants closely mimic the appearance and function of natural teeth, facilitate clear speech, stimulate the jawbone to prevent bone loss, and with proper care can last a lifetime. The trade-off: the process involves multiple stages (consultation, implant placement, a healing period, and attachment of the replacement teeth) and can take several months to complete. The results are well worth the wait.
Is the all-on-4 procedure painful?
We prioritize your comfort, offering sedation options and ensuring a pain-free experience throughout your procedure.
