What Types of Oral Surgery are Considered Emergency Procedures?

When you experience sudden dental pain or trauma, certain procedures are prioritized as emergencies to protect your health and provide immediate relief. We offer same-day evaluations and oral surgery for these urgent situations.

Common oral surgery procedures and conditions considered emergencies include:

  • Wisdom Teeth Removal: When wisdom teeth cause sudden, intense pain or indicate an acute infection, urgent extraction is often necessary.
  • Tooth Extractions: If a tooth is irreparably damaged by trauma or severe decay, a same-day extraction may be required to resolve pain and prevent further complications.
  • Abscess and Infection Treatment: Severe, persistent toothaches often indicate an abscess or soft tissue infection that requires immediate professional care.
  • Trauma and Injury: This includes treatments for knocked-out permanent teeth, loose or fractured teeth causing pain, and uncontrolled bleeding from the mouth.

To ensure your comfort during these urgent procedures, we provide gentle care with various sedation options, including nitrous oxide and IV sedation. Our Team is here for you and your dental needs, and we offer flexible financing and a New Patient Special to help you get the care you need without added stress.

Results may vary based on individual patient conditions. Please consult a licensed dental professional for diagnosis and personalized treatment advice.
