Unexpected dental problems arise from time to time. Whether you play sports, take a fall on the ice or experience some other mishap, accidents can lead to immediate tooth damage. We can help you address some of the most urgent dental issues promptly with emergency dentistry services.
Any dental problem that requires immediate treatment in order to save a tooth, stop ongoing tissue bleeding or alleviate severe pain is considered a dental emergency. A severe infection or abscess in the mouth can be life-threatening and should be dealt with immediately.
Call us if you have:
We know dental emergencies can be scary and overwhelming whether it’s happening to you or a loved one. Remain calm, perform first aid, and arrange to see a medical professional as soon as possible. Here are some practical tips for common dental emergencies:
Apply a cold compress to the area. You may be able to take the edge off your pain by taking a pain reliever like acetaminophen (ex. Tylenol) or ibuprofen (ex. Advil). Always follow the advice of your doctor and read the instructions on the bottle when taking any medication. Make a note of what medication, how much and the time it was taken so you can let us know when you come in.
Time is of the essence, we may be able to restore your natural tooth! If a whole tooth has been knocked out –and is reasonably clean– quickly and gently reinsert the tooth into its socket. If you can’t because you’re unsure or it hurts then save the tooth in a cup of milk. Make sure to call us Immediately. A knocked-out tooth is more likely to be saved if treated within the hour.
Rinse your mouth with warm water to wash away smaller fragments. If you are bleeding, hold a piece of sterile gauze on the area until bleeding stops. You may use a cold compress to relieve some of the pain and swelling. Call us immediately. We will work quickly to relieve your pain, heal your injury, and restore your tooth.
Abscesses are infections that occur around the root of a tooth or in the space between the teeth and gums. Abscesses are a serious condition that can damage tissue and surrounding teeth, with the infection possibly spreading to other parts of the body if left untreated. Because of the serious oral health and general health problems that can result from an abscess, see your dentist as soon as possible.
I had a great experience at Smile Breeze Dentistry. The staff was friendly and welcoming, and the office was clean and well-maintained. Dr. Kelkar was knowledgeable and experienced, and she took the time to explain my treatment options. I was satisfied with the treatment I received, and the cost was reasonable. I would definitely recommend Smile Breeze Dentistry to others.

Entire dental and office staff are excellent! Dr Kelkar has helped with my problematic gums with compassion and professionalism and my teeth and gums are now in much better condition. Thanks to Smile Breeze Dentistry!
Dr. Kelkar is an amazing doctor who takes it upon herself to ensure best experience for your entire duration of the treatment from the time you walk into her office and follows through your recovery. It is great to have such a wonderful care and support.
Loved this place. Dr Kelkar explained the issues well and gave different options with their respective consequences. She did not pressure me to choose the most expensive option and I appreciated that. The music was soothing. Overall I totally recommend this place. Thank you Dr. Kelkar
