A dental emergency can happen at any moment — a knocked-out tooth during a weekend game, a sudden severe toothache that wakes you up at 2AM, or a crown that falls out the morning of an important meeting. When it happens, knowing where to go and what to do can make the difference between saving a tooth or losing it.
At Hue Dental in Garland, TX, we offer same-day emergency dental appointments 7 days a week, including Saturdays and Sundays. Dr. Nghi Tran, DDS FAGD FICOI, and our experienced team are here to provide fast, expert relief when you need it most.
What Counts as a Dental Emergency?
Not every dental concern requires an emergency visit, but the following situations should be treated as soon as possible:
- Severe tooth pain that doesn’t go away with over-the-counter pain relief
- Knocked-out tooth — time is critical; the sooner you act, the better the chance of saving the tooth
- Broken or cracked tooth — especially if sharp edges are cutting your mouth or there is significant pain
- Lost crown or filling — leaving a tooth unprotected can cause rapid damage
- Dental abscess — a serious infection that can spread if left untreated
- Swollen jaw or face — may indicate a spreading infection requiring immediate attention
- Bleeding that won’t stop after a tooth extraction or injury
What to Do Right Now
- Step 1: Call us immediately. Call Hue Dental at (469) 969-0149. We will do our best to see you the same day.
- Step 2: For a knocked-out tooth — pick it up by the crown (not the root), rinse it gently with water, and place it back in the socket if possible. If not, store it in a glass of milk or hold it in your cheek and come in immediately. Time is critical.
- Step 3: For pain — you may take ibuprofen or acetaminophen according to package directions. Do not place aspirin directly on the gum — this can cause chemical burns.
- Step 4: For a dental abscess or facial swelling — do not wait. If you cannot reach us, go to an urgent care or emergency room, as infections can spread rapidly.
