Doctor Chris Miller Talks about Dental Emergencies

I've always encouraged people that if there's an emergency, bring them in. I don't know that we'll always get the treatment done that day, but we will at least get them in and triage it, because an emergency is an emergency. It's an interruption in that person's day, and that's something that we need to try to accommodate.

We can't plan for everything, but if we can get them in and we can at least get them out of pain or at least get them an answer, I feel a lot better, and I think our patients feel a lot better about that too.

Find Proactive Care for a Lifetime of Healthy Smiles

As our patient, you'll benefit from our whole-body approach to dental care. Our team focuses on prevention and early intervention.

Through regular cleanings, thorough exams, and patient education, your dentist will identify and address potential issues before they escalate.

When dental emergencies do happen, our team uses advanced technology to provide swift and precise diagnoses.

Digital X-rays and intraoral cameras allow us to spot the root of the problem causing your dental pain.

We’ll Get You Feeling Better Fast

Our emergency dental services include:

  • Fillings - If you have a cavity or damaged tooth, our composite fillings provide a seamless and durable solution. Your dentist will use tooth-colored materials to restore your tooth's strength and appearance.
  • Same-Day Crowns - When a tooth is damaged or decayed, a crown can protect and restore its function. Your dentist can create your crown in a single visit with our CEREC technology.
  • Root Canal Treatment - If a tooth's pulp becomes infected, your dentist may recommend a root canal treatment to save the tooth. Your dentist may need to refer you to a specialist if your infection is more complex.
  • Extractions - In some cases, a tooth may be too damaged to save, and extraction is the best course of action Your dentist will perform the extraction with precision and care to promote optimal healing.
  • Gum Disease Treatment - Your dentist will treat your gum infection and restore your health. We use the guided biofilm therapy (GBT) method of deep cleaning, which is more gentle than traditional scaling and root planing.

Frequently Asked Questions About Dental Emergencies

Can you help with my dental emergency?

Yes, we're here for you! Contact us immediately if you have a dental emergency, and we'll arrange to see you as soon as possible. Our goal is to provide fast treatment to help you feel better quickly and keep your smile safe. Many times, we can fit you in on the same day.

What can you do for my dental emergency?

If you come to us with a dental emergency, expect prompt and skilled treatment to get your smile back to normal fast. Our top priority is to relieve your pain so you can feel at ease. We'll do an emergency check-up and might take X-rays to figure out the source of your pain and what needs to be done. We always offer you options when possible.

Can I go to the ER for dental emergencies?

Yes, you can go there. But because they don't have dentists, they won't be able to do root canals, extractions, or other dental treatments. If you have an infection, the ER can give you antibiotics to help manage it until you can visit us. They might also prescribe stronger pain medicine than what you can buy in the store.

I am SO glad I found Renew Dental Arts! My previous experience with the dentist was fine but nothing special. Dr Studebaker has amazing bedside manner, took extra care and time to diagnose my tooth issue, and carried out the procedure with professionalism, integrity, and kindness. I feel so well taken care of here. Also, I really appreciate the quantitative way of discussing ways to improve dental hygiene. Instead of vague "brush and floss!" the techs use special gel to show you where plaque builds up and they actually treat the gingivitis. I'm in my 30s and feel like I actually understand how to take care of my teeth for the first time thanks to Renew Dental Arts.

They were transparent in what the work I needed cost and worked with me. They gave accurate estimate of cost as well. The staff is friendly and caring.
