Emergency Care
We at the Allen Dental Center understand that dental emergencies happen when you least expect them. If you have a dental emergency or question you can click on the common emergencies below for instructions. If you do not get your concerns addressed, please call our Allen office and we can help you.
Temporary Crown
If your temporary falls out and you still have it, dry your natural tooth, apply a small dab of toothpaste to the temporary and reattach it. You may also use dental wax or temporary adhesive, available at most pharmacies. Please call our office so that we can professionally reattach your temporary as soon as possible.
Broken Tooth
A cracked or broken tooth should be rinsed immediately with warm water. Then hold a cold compress against the affected tooth to reduce swelling while on your way to our office for assistance.
Knocked Out Tooth
Rinse the tooth gently under water to remove debris. Place the tooth into the socket it fell from and hold it in place until you get to our office. Otherwise, put the tooth into a baggie of milk and bring it to us so that we can determine whether reattachment is possible.
Call Allen Dental Center today to schedule your appointment with Dr. Jeff Williams or Dr. Steve Williams. Residents of Plano, McKinney, Fairview, Lucas, Wylie, and surrounding areas rely on our Allen dental office for contemporary, family-friendly dental care.
