Quick answer: what should I do in a dental emergency?

Call Longbranch Dental Center at (903) 455-4161 as early in the day as you can; we see most emergency patients the same day. If a permanent tooth is knocked out, keep it moist in milk and try to get here within an hour. For swelling that affects breathing or swallowing, heavy bleeding that will not stop, or a jaw injury from a serious accident, call 911 or go to the emergency room.

Common dental emergencies

What to do until you get here.

Pain

Severe toothache

Rinse with warm salt water, floss gently around the tooth and take an over-the-counter pain reliever as directed. Do not put aspirin on the gum. Call us; pain usually means infection or a deep cavity.

Act fast

Knocked-out tooth

Pick it up by the crown, not the root. Rinse gently if dirty, try to set it back in the socket, or keep it in milk. A tooth saved within an hour has the best chance.

Broken

Broken or cracked tooth

Rinse your mouth, save any pieces and use a cold compress for swelling. Avoid chewing on that side until we see you.

Lost

Lost filling or crown

Keep the crown in a bag and bring it. A dab of denture adhesive or dental cement from the pharmacy can cover the tooth for a day. We can often re-cement the crown.

Infection

Swelling or abscess

A swollen face or gum, a pimple on the gum or a bad taste can mean infection. Call right away. If swelling spreads to your eye, neck or throat, go to the ER.

Dentures

Broken denture

Do not glue it. Our on-site lab finishes most denture repairs the same day, some in about an hour. Same-day denture repair →

Go to the ER first if…

Some emergencies need a hospital, not a dentist.

Call 911 or go to the nearest emergency room for swelling that makes it hard to breathe or swallow, bleeding that will not stop after 15 minutes of firm pressure, a possible broken jaw, or any head injury. Once you are stable, we can treat the teeth.

Your emergency visit

What happens when you call.

  1. Call us early

    Call (903) 455-4161. Tell us what happened and how long it has hurt. We hold time each day for emergencies and will give you the first opening we have.

    Same day, in most cases
  2. Exam and X-ray

    A dentist examines the area and takes a digital X-ray to find the cause, not just the symptom.

  3. Relief first

    We numb the area and take care of the pain: draining an infection, smoothing a broken edge, placing a temporary filling or re-cementing a crown.

  4. A plan and a price

    If you need more treatment, such as a root canal, crown or extraction, we explain your options and give you the fee before anything is done.

  5. Follow-up

    Some problems are fixed in one visit. Others get a follow-up appointment to finish the work, often within the week.

Typical U.S. self-pay ranges. Your fee depends on what we find, and we tell you before treatment.

It was all a very good experience. The staff is very professional and friendly. Alishia did a great job. Dr. Patterson and Patti went above and beyond by taking care of me and prolonging their going to lunch. Thank you all so much. I 've been going to Longbranch Dental for many years and the staff has always been friendly and professional. And of course, it is always good to see Kathy's friendly sweet face

Emergency questions

When something hurts.

Can I see a dentist today in Greenville, TX?

Usually, yes. Longbranch Dental Center sees most emergency patients the same day. Call (903) 455-4161 as early as you can, Monday, Tuesday or Thursday from 7:30 AM or Wednesday from 9 AM.

What should I do if a tooth gets knocked out?

Pick it up by the crown, rinse it gently without scrubbing, and try to put it back in the socket. If you can't, keep it in milk or inside your cheek and get to a dentist within an hour. Baby teeth should not be put back in.

How much does an emergency dental visit cost?

An emergency exam with an X-ray typically costs $100–$250 in the U.S. without insurance. Treatment such as an extraction or root canal is extra, and we tell you the fee before we start.

Do you see emergency patients without insurance?

Yes. You can pay at the visit, use Cherry or CareCredit for larger treatment, or join our in-house membership plan the same day for exams, X-rays and 10% off treatment.

Is a toothache an emergency?

A toothache that keeps you up at night, throbs, or comes with swelling or fever needs to be seen quickly. It usually means infection or a deep cavity, and it rarely goes away on its own.

What if my face is swollen?

Call us right away. Facial swelling usually means an infection that needs treatment. If the swelling affects your breathing, swallowing or vision, or spreads down your neck, go to the emergency room first.

Are you open on Fridays or weekends?

Our office is closed Friday through Sunday. If you have a serious problem when we are closed, such as swelling that affects breathing or bleeding that will not stop, go to the nearest emergency room or call 911.
