How to Handle Emergencies
No matter the type of dental emergency you are facing, we are here to provide the immediate care and treatment you need. Although each injury is different, the same steps are followed to ensure we remain thorough in our pursuit of restoring your damaged smile.
- Call to Schedule an Emergency Visit: When calling to let us know about your injury, a member of our staff will find a time for you to come in on the same day and be seen by one of our talented team members. We’ll also provide helpful first-aid guidance so that you can better manage any pain while waiting at home.
- Receive a Thorough Dental Exam: You can expect to have digital X-rays taken of your mouth as well as a visual examination performed by a member of our team. This will allow us to clearly identify the problem area and work quickly to alleviate any pain.
- Development of a Treatment Plan: Once you are more comfortable, we will go over our findings with you and discuss the type of treatment plan we believe you will need to improve the health and aesthetics of your smile.
-
Receive First-Rate Care: Depending on the service(s) you will need to address your injured smile, we will suggest either moving forward on the same day or returning at a later date. This may be necessary if the proposed treatment is considered timelier and more invasive.
The Most Common Dental Emergencies
There are many different types of dental emergencies. While some require immediate care (a knocked-out tooth), others may not need same-day treatment (i.e., a soft tissue injury or lost dental filling). At My Riverdale Dentist, though, we want you to have peace of mind, which is why we encourage you to call our office if you are in pain or notice something “off” about your teeth or gums. Below is a list of the most common dental emergencies we treat.
Cost of Treating Emergencies
The estimated cost of treating dental emergencies is not the same for everyone. The reason is that the kind of services required to address a knocked-out tooth are likely to be very different than those that are recommended for a lost dental crown or filling. After a scheduled visit with a member of our team, we will be happy to discuss your proposed costs as well as the various ways you can pay for treatment. Not only do we welcome dental insurance, but we also work closely with third-party financier CareCredit as well as provide an in-house Membership Program for uninsured patients.
