Same-Day Emergency Dentist Appointments in Somerville

Gentle Dental Somerville accommodates same-day emergency appointments when available. Contact the office promptly and describe your symptoms so the dental team can determine how urgently you should be seen.

When to Seek Emergency Dental Care

Emergency dental care may be needed for severe tooth pain, dental abscesses, swelling, broken or knocked-out teeth, lost restorations, dental trauma, or bleeding that does not stop.

When to Go to the Emergency Room

Seek immediate medical care for significant facial trauma, uncontrolled bleeding, difficulty breathing or swallowing, or severe swelling that may affect your airway.

What to Expect During an Emergency Dental Visit

Your appointment will focus on identifying the cause of the problem and determining the most appropriate treatment.

Emergency Examination and Digital X-Rays

Your dentist will examine the affected tooth, gums, and surrounding tissues. Digital X-rays may be used to identify decay, infection, fractures, or other underlying problems.

Immediate Treatment and Follow-Up Care

Some dental emergencies can be treated during the first visit, while others may require follow-up care. Your dentist will explain the recommended treatment and next steps.
