Dental pain shouldn't wait

Dental problems rarely improve on their own. A toothache can mean a deep cavity, a crack or an infection, and a broken tooth can get worse every time you bite down. Getting seen quickly usually means simpler treatment and less time in pain.

When you call Buffalo Creek Dental, our team will ask what happened, tell you what to do until you arrive and find you the earliest available time. Dr. Jon Barnes will examine the tooth, take an X-ray if needed and explain what’s going on. The first goal is always to get you comfortable. Then we’ll talk about options to fix the problem, either at the same visit or at a follow-up.

Call us right away if you have:

Go to the ER or call 911 if you have swelling that affects breathing or swallowing, swelling spreading toward your eye or neck, a high fever with facial swelling, uncontrolled bleeding, or a possible broken jaw.

What to do until you get here

  1. Knocked-out tooth. Hold it by the crown (the top), not the root. Rinse gently if dirty, don’t scrub. Try to put it back in the socket, or keep it in milk. Call us immediately; minutes matter.
  2. Broken tooth. Rinse with warm water, save any pieces and use a cold compress on your cheek for swelling.
  3. Toothache. Rinse with warm water and floss gently to remove anything stuck. Over-the-counter pain relievers may help if they’re safe for you. Don’t put aspirin directly on the gum.
  4. Lost crown or filling. Keep the crown and bring it with you. Avoid chewing on that side.
  5. Bleeding. Press clean gauze firmly on the area for 15–20 minutes.

How we treat dental emergencies

Pain relief first

Numbing, draining an infection or smoothing a sharp edge can bring quick relief.

Fix it the same day when possible

Many problems, such as fillings, re-cementing a crown or a smoothing repair, can be handled at the first visit.

A clear plan for the rest

If you need a root canal, crown or extraction, we'll explain why, what it costs and when we can do it.

Care for kids too

We see children for dental injuries and toothaches.

Emergency visit cost, insurance & financing

The cost of an emergency visit depends on what the tooth needs. Before any treatment, Dr. Barnes will explain your options and our team will give you the fees. We’re in network with most PPO plans and will file your claim. We accept cash, credit cards, CareCredit, Cherry payment plans and some in-house finance options. Don’t let worry about cost keep you from calling. We’ll help you understand your choices. See Dental Insurance & Financing.

For most toothaches, a dentist is the right place, because ERs usually can’t repair teeth. Go to the ER for the serious symptoms listed above.

If it hurts, has a sharp edge or the chip is large, call us soon. Even a painless crack can spread, so it’s best to have it checked.
