Abscessed Tooth – If a tooth becomes infected, a pocket of pus forms around the root. It's also possible that the infection will spread to other parts of the body, which can be dangerous. This is why it's essential to seek emergency dental care if you have an abscessed tooth.
To resolve a problem with an abscessed tooth, it's first necessary to clear the infection, which may include the use of antibiotics. Most urgent care dentists perform root canals to save the abscessed tooth, and will then cover it with a crown. (We 3-D print crowns while you wait at our clinic). If too much of the tooth or bone surrounding the tooth is lost from the infection or tooth decay, your dentist may recommend an extraction.
Tooth Extraction – This is also referred to as pulling a tooth, and it is one of the oldest and most common urgent dental care procedures we perform. There may be many reasons why a tooth needs to be extracted, but it's most often because it's just too badly damaged to save. Impacted teeth require additional care because the gum must be cut away to access the tooth. Anesthetic and gentle touch make it pain free, where you may instead feel slight pressure in the procedure.
Wisdom Teeth Removal – Sometimes wisdom teeth do not have enough room to grow into the mouth, causing them to become impacted. This can lead to an infection, pain, and many other dental problems. Wisdom teeth removal is done on an outpatient basis, so you can go home after the procedure is done. Depending on the nature of the situation your urgent care dental specialist will use local anesthetic or sedate you you with nitrous, ensuring you’re comfortable during the entire procedure.
Affordable Dentures – Dentures are removable replacements for missing teeth. However, they are not known for being cheap. There are many benefits to using dentures if you've lost all of your teeth, as they can help your appearance and help you speak better. We offer state-of-the-art dentures at prices that make sense for retirees, so you can look your best without breaking the bank.
Dental Bridge – A dental bridge bridges the gaps between teeth. There are two crowned teeth on either side of the bridge and the false teeth are placed in between. We use the highest quality, most durable material - cubic zirconia - giving you a natural looking dental restoration. There are different types of bridges used for different situations, so be sure to talk to our urgent care dental specialist about your situation.
Dental Crown – A crown is a cap that's placed on top of a tooth to restore it's appearance and strengthen it. There are many applications for dental crowns, including dental bridges or covering dental implants.
