Their FAQ

Answers from their website.

When should I call an emergency dentist in Downtown Toronto?

If you have severe pain, swelling, uncontrolled bleeding, a knocked-out tooth, or signs of infection, call right away. Waiting can sometimes make the problem more complicated.

Can I be seen the same day?

Many urgent cases can be scheduled quickly, but availability depends on the day and severity of your symptoms. The fastest route is to contact Smiles of Kensington Dental as soon as possible.

What should I do if my tooth is knocked out?

Time matters. If possible: Hold the tooth by the crown (not the root) Rinse gently with water if dirty (don’t scrub) Try to place it back in the socket If you can’t, keep it in milk and go to an emergency dentist immediately

Can emergency dentists treat tooth infections and abscesses?

Yes. Infections and abscesses often require urgent attention to reduce pain and prevent spread. Treatment depends on what’s causing the infection.

What if my crown or filling fell out?

A missing filling or crown can cause sensitivity, pain, or expose the tooth. Emergency care may involve stabilizing the tooth and restoring protection as soon as possible.

Is a toothache always a root canal?

Not necessarily. A toothache can happen for many reasons—cracks, lost fillings, gum issues, or infection. After an exam and X-rays, Smiles of Kensington Dental can recommend the best option.

What can I do at home while I wait?

You can: Rinse gently with warm salt water Use a cold compress for swelling Avoid chewing on that side and stick to soft foods For pain relief, follow label directions and consider asking a clinician first if you have medical conditions or take blood thinners.

How long will it take to get relief?

Many patients feel improvement after emergency treatment, especially if swelling or exposed tooth structures are addressed. Your exact timeline depends on the cause.
