What to Do if You Have an Emergency
If you or a family member experiences a dental emergency the first step should be to evaluate the situation. If you had a tooth broken or knocked out due to an accident or injury and you experience other symptoms like a concussion or extensive bleeding, you need to seek immediate medical attention.
The next step is to recover the tooth or part of your tooth and preserve it until you can see our Alexandria dentists. Store the tooth in milk or between your gum and cheek to ensure the tooth doesn’t dry out. This will increase the chances of us being able to save the natural tooth. We will see you as soon as possible to address your emergency in our office and provide you with a solution.
The Best Solution Is Preventative Dentistry
If you are experiencing any discomfort, or think you might have a dental problem, call King Centre Dental before it becomes an emergency. It is also important to keep regular appointments and visit the dentist for a professional cleaning and exam at least twice a year. Preventative dental care is the best way to avoid major dental problems.
If you do experience a dental emergency, call our team at (703) 854-9955.
