Comprehensive Emergency Dental Services

At Yorkville Village Dental Group, we understand that dental emergencies can be unexpected, painful, and often require immediate attention. In the unfortunate event of a dental emergency, it is imperative to seek professional dental help as soon as possible, as the dissipation of pain or symptoms does not necessarily indicate that the problem has been resolved. Our dedicated team, led by Dr. George Azmy, is committed to providing prompt and effective emergency dental services to help ease your discomfort and address the underlying issue.


Dr. George Azmy and his team are always available to assist you during a dental emergency. Our highest priority is to ensure your oral health and well-being, and we will do everything we can to address your dental emergency in a timely and efficient manner.


For more information or to seek immediate help, please contact us. Dr. George Azmy can be reached directly at any hour via email at Dr.GeorgeAzmy@yorkvillevillagedental.com

How To Handle Common Dental Emergencies

If you experience any of these common dental emergencies, immediately contact Yorkville Village Dental Group via telephone or email the office if after hours. Dr. Azmy will be in touch and can remotely prescribe the necessary medications.

01

Toothache: To alleviate the discomfort, clean the affected area by rinsing with warm salt water and flossing to ensure all irritating debris has been cleared. If swelling arises, apply a cold compress to limit the swelling. If the pain worsens and severely impacts your daily tasks and sleep, please contact the emergency dental clinic at https://dentalemergencyservices.ca.

02

Fractured Teeth: Make sure to save any fragments that can be retrieved and seek immediate treatment. Non-lingering cold and hot sensitivity may be experienced following the fracture, so it is advised to avoid cold, hot, sweet, and spicy foods and drinks until the issue is addressed by a dental professional.

03

Dislodged Crowns or Fillings: Save the crown and bring it with you to the appointment. To temporarily manage the situation, you can purchase clove oil from any pharmacy and cover the exposed tooth where the crown has been dislodged. Alternatively, you can place sugar-free gum in the open cavity where the filling has come loose. 

04

Knocked-Out Tooth: Carefully pick up the tooth by the crown, avoiding touching the root, and gently rinse it with water to remove any dirt or debris. Do not scrub or use any cleaning agents on the tooth. Place the tooth in a container with milk or a saline solution to help preserve it. Alternatively, you can also place the tooth between your cheek and gum to keep it moist. Seek immediate professional dental care.

Don't let a dental emergency disrupt your life. Let our experienced team provide you with the prompt and professional care.
