Emergency Dentist in Gainesville, VA
Dental emergencies do not wait for a convenient time. At Heritage Dental Arts, we offer same-day emergency appointments to get you out of pain and address urgent dental problems quickly.
Common Dental Emergencies
- Severe toothache — persistent pain may indicate infection or decay that needs immediate attention
- Broken or chipped tooth — we can restore the tooth with bonding, a crown, or other treatment depending on the extent of the damage
- Knocked-out tooth — if you can get to us within an hour, there is a chance we can save the tooth. Keep it moist in milk or saliva
- Lost filling or crown — exposed tooth structure is vulnerable to further damage and sensitivity
- Abscess or swelling — infection requires prompt treatment to prevent it from spreading
- Broken denture or appliance — we can often repair or replace it the same day
