What Counts as a Dental Emergency?


If you are in pain, have swelling, or have experienced trauma to your teeth or mouth, contact our office immediately. Common dental emergencies we treat include:

Emergency Type Description
Severe Toothache Persistent or sudden tooth pain, especially with swelling or sensitivity
Broken or Cracked Tooth Chipped, fractured, or damaged teeth causing pain or sensitivity
Knocked-Out Tooth Teeth displaced from trauma that require immediate attention
Lost Filling or Crown Missing restorations leaving teeth exposed or uncomfortable
Dental Abscess Infection causing swelling, severe pain, or pus near the gums or tooth root
Soft Tissue Injury Cuts or injuries involving the lips, cheeks, tongue, or gums
Denture Problems Broken or painful dentures affecting speech or eating
Dental Implant Issues Loose implant crowns or damaged implant components

If you are unsure whether your situation is an emergency, call us anyway. We would always rather help you determine the next step than have you remain in pain at home.


Common Emergency Scenarios We Treat


Severe Toothache

Sudden or intense tooth pain is one of the most common reasons patients seek emergency dental care in Perth, Ontario. Pain accompanied by swelling, fever, or throbbing may indicate an infection or abscess requiring urgent treatment.

Call our office immediately for a same-day assessment.

Knocked-Out Tooth

A knocked-out tooth has the best chance of being saved if treated within 30 to 60 minutes.

  • Pick up the tooth by the crown (white part), not the root
  • Gently rinse with milk or water without scrubbing
  • Keep the tooth moist — ideally in milk
  • Call (613) 267-1100 immediately

Broken or Cracked Tooth

Cracked or broken teeth can expose sensitive inner tissue and lead to significant pain or infection if left untreated.

  • Rinse your mouth with warm water
  • Apply a cold compress to reduce swelling
  • Call our office right away for emergency treatment

Lost Filling or Crown

A lost crown or filling can leave your tooth vulnerable and sensitive. If possible, keep the restoration and bring it to your appointment, as it may be possible to re-cement it.


Dental Abscess


A dental abscess is a serious infection that requires prompt care. Symptoms may include:

  • Severe throbbing tooth pain
  • Swelling in the gums, jaw, or face
  • Fever
  • Bad taste or drainage in the mouth

Dental infections can spread quickly if untreated. If you experience difficulty breathing or swallowing, go to the nearest emergency room immediately.

What should I do if I knock out a tooth?
