Once you’ve gained control of the situation, take assessment of your injury. If you’re experiencing any bleeding, place a strip of gauze on the site of the injury and apply pressure by biting down on the gauze. This should slow the blood flow within an hour.

"Dr Talis and her team are AMAZING. I haven't taken the best care of my teeth and I feel embarrassed sometimes to even open my mouth to speak. Dr Talis and her staff never once made me feel ashamed or inferior. I felt comfortable and supported throughout the entire process. Thanks Dr Talis"
"Friendly staff, and Dr. Clark was amazing. I have high anxiety when it comes to dentist, but I didn't feel a thing. They got me in the same day I called. I will definitely return in the future. Thank you so much for everything you did."

"I feel very grateful for the attention provided by the girls at the reception, and all the staff, they are excellent at their work and they do it with love, thank you"
"I had a great experience today at Advanced Dental in Middletown. Everyone in the office was so helpful/cheerful & my cleaning with Megan was very gentle & thorough. I completely trust in Dr Emily’s knowledge & feel very comfortable with my future care. (And a big thank you to Melissa for making the calls to confirm my insurance coverage.)"
"What a really great place. I’m terrified of dentists having only been to one other dentist since I was 14 years old. She listed. She understood. She treated me like a human and not a factory. I’ll be back!"
"Everyone was so nice and very helpful. The doctor took time to get to know me and answered all my questions. I'm glad I chose them to be my dentist.."

To recover your tooth, grab it by the top (the crown) instead of the bottom (the root), as this will prevent further damage from occurring. Next, rinse it with warm water to keep the tooth clean. Finally, replace the tooth back in its socket or add it into a container of cold milk to ensure proper moisture before you come in to see the dentist.
Put your dental work in a plastic bag or container if you can, and be sure to bring it with you to your appointment. Call us immediately to schedule an emergency visit so we can treat the issue ASAP. Losing a piece of dental work exposes vulnerable parts of your tooth to bacteria, which can trigger an infection, further decay or damage, and cause other complications to arise. This is a serious issue that requires a same-day appointment, so don’t hesitate to contact us right away. We will do everything we can to restore your smile with a new filling, crown, or other restorative dental work.
If your severe toothache lasts 1-2 days or longer, there’s a strong chance you may have a tooth infection, which constitutes a serious dental emergency. Root canal therapy may be necessary to restore and revitalize your tooth. Give us a call right away to schedule your appointment. Before visiting our office, apply an ice pack, take over-the-counter pain relievers, or apply Orajel or a similar topical product to numb the tooth and soothe the pain.
Don’t hesitate to give us a call for a same-day emergency appointment, even if you think the dental damage seems minor. Without a professional dental exam, it can be difficult to know the severity of a chip, break or crack on your tooth. If left untreated, a broken or cracked tooth can easily become infected and cause further and unnecessary complications. The best thing to do is give us a call and visit our office as soon as possible. Your dentist will examine the tooth, determine the extent of the damage, and offer their best recommendations to repair and protect your smile.
If a dental injury has caused your tooth to loosen, call our team immediately for a same-day appointment. Without proper care, the nerves supporting your tooth could die, causing the tooth to fall out entirely. Don’t hesitate to reach out, we are here to help! After you’ve scheduled your appointment, it’s important to try to keep the tooth as stable as possible. Avoid touching the loose tooth with your tongue or fingers. Once you arrive at our office for your emergency treatment, your dentist will attach the loose tooth to the adjacent teeth by applying a stabilizing splint. This will allow the healing process to begin so the tooth can re-attach to your gums.
