Common Dental Emergencies We Treat

Instead of seeking care at an emergency room or urgent care clinic, contacting a dentist is advised for dental concerns.

Preventing Dental Emergencies

While not all dental emergencies can be avoided, adopting healthy habits and precautions can significantly reduce the risk. Simple measures such as regular dental check-ups, proper oral hygiene practices, wearing mouthguards during physical activities, and avoiding harmful habits can help maintain your oral health and prevent emergencies.

If you have questions or concerns about dental emergencies, we encourage you to call our office on 212-242-5344. Kelly our receptionist will work with you on your insurance and if you don’t have insurance or are between jobs we will give you a breakdown of cost for the treatment.
