Chipped Tooth

A broken cusp refers to a chip on one of the pointed chewing surfaces of the back teeth. Although this type of chipped tooth is typically not painful, it is essential to have it examined by a dentist. Our experienced dental team specializes in handling these cases. In case this incident occurs, you can make an appointment for evaluation and treatment.

Emergency Tooth Extraction

We prioritize your oral health and offer tooth extractions when necessary. Following the procedure, it's crucial to control bleeding by biting on gauze for 30-45 minutes to form a blood clot. Avoid disturbing the clot for 24 hours to prevent dry socket. Rinse your mouth with salt water for cleanliness.

Emergency Root Canal

Tooth sensitivity after hot or cold food? Pain when biting or chewing? A toothache indicates pulp infection due to tooth damage, decay, or injury. Untreated, it can lead to abscess and tooth extraction. Root canals effectively treat and remove infections and inflammation within the tooth to prevent further spread.
