Dental Emergency Dentistry - Urgent Dental Care

Call us immediately at 858-397-2201 in case of a dental emergency.

Dental emergencies, such as toothaches, can occur at any time and require immediate emergency dental care. You may experience them during a sports event or a dinner with friends when most dental offices are closed, such as after 5 pm and on weekends. Needless to say, a dental emergency is especially stressful during those times.

Having access to emergency dental care right away is, therefore, not only necessary but also comforting. Besides saving you the trip to an urgent care clinic or hospital emergency room, our 24-hour emergency dentist at Miramar Dental Studio gives you the peace of mind you need. At Miramar Dental Studio, we are always available to assist you, and we are one of the few dentists open on Saturdays. We also understand the unpredictable schedule of Miramar MCAS military personnel and their families, which may require emergency dental care.

Common Dental Emergencies

We understand that in a critical moment when you are in pain or discomfort, the role of emergency dental care becomes paramount, offering immediate attention and relief to patients in distress. Dental emergencies encompass a range of situations that require urgent dental care. These may include:

Severe Toothache

Severe toothache can radiate to the neck, temples, behind the ear, and jawbone. It is usually a symptom of an underlying condition that may need immediate attention.

Abscessed Tooth

Severe tooth pain accompanied by swelling or pus discharge may indicate an abscessed tooth, which requires immediate attention to prevent more serious conditions from developing.

Broken or Knocked-Out Tooth

Accidents or injuries can lead to broken or knocked-out teeth, requiring prompt dental intervention to save the tooth or provide suitable replacements.

Lost or Broken Dental Fillings or Crowns

Damaged fillings or crowns can expose sensitive dental tissue, causing discomfort and requiring immediate repair.

Dental Injuries and Accidents

Any trauma to the mouth resulting in bleeding, cracked teeth, or soft tissue injuries falls under dental emergencies.
