We recognize that dental emergency situations do arise and we will do everything in our power to respond promptly to you. If a dental emergency arises while the office is closed, please call the Doctors’ Answering Service at 212-888-4140.

If a dental emergency strikes such as a broken tooth or severe tooth pain while the office is open, please call us at your earliest convenience for an emergency dentist. We reserve special times for those patients with emergency needs, and you will be seen as quickly as possible.

If you are experiencing a serious or life threatening emergency, please call 911 or visit the nearest emergency room.

Gently clean the area around the tooth by rinsing the mouth with warm water and gently flossing to remove any particles that may be lodged in the tissue around the tooth. If the severe pain continues, or if the area around the affected tooth is warm from a possible dental infection, please call our office to schedule an appointment with an emergency dentist.

Apply ice to help reduce swelling and apply pressure with a clean cloth or sterile gauze to stop any bleeding. If the bleeding continues, call your physician or visit your local emergency room.

Please call our office to schedule an appointment.

Call our office right away for a knocked out tooth and take these steps. 1) Do not touch the tooth root, but hold the tooth by the crown and gently rinse the tooth with water. 2) Place the tooth back into the socket as quickly as possible and bite down on clean gauze to hold it in place. 3) If the tooth cannot be placed in the socket, put the tooth in a small container of milk or saliva and bring it with you to your appointment for personalized care and to be treated quickly.

For broken or chipped teeth, gently rinse the area with lukewarm water and place a cold compress on the face to reduce swelling. If you can locate the piece of broken tooth, place the piece in milk, and bring it with you to the office for immediate care. If more than half of the tooth is broken off, please call us immediately.
