Preventing Dental Emergencies
Of course, it’s always better to avoid a dental emergency if at all possible. To lessen the chances that your oral health will face potential disaster, it’s a good idea to:
- Wear a custom mouthguard while you’re playing sports
- Practice excellent dental hygiene.
- Be mindful of what you eat. Hard foods may break teeth, sticky foods may cause a crown or filling to become dislodged, and sugary foods lead to decay.
- Visit your dentist every six months for a cleaning and checkup.
Cost of Treating Dental Emergencies
Before we can provide you with a cost for your treatment, we’ll need to conduct an in-depth examination to diagnose the underlying problem. Once we do, we’ll create a treatment plan and walk you through it. If you have questions about financing the treatment, we are proud to be in-network with a couple of major insurance plans and are happy to answer any financing questions you have and go over the rest of your options.
