OUR SERVICES — Emergency Dentistry


Severe pain or discomfort in the jaw, gums or teeth can often become unbearable. At Dr. Winston Faltine – MiraBella Smiles we offer same-day emergency dental services and appointments to provide immediate relief and long-term dental solutions!

If you are experiencing a dental emergency:

  • Calmly assess jaw, lips, teeth & gums. Look for swelling, bleeding, broken bones, and altered teeth.
  • Decide if you need to call the dentist. We recommend calling if: a tooth has been pushed back or fallen out, you or your child has bitten through the upper or lower lip or tongue.
  • Decide if an Emergency Room visit is needed. We recommend going to the ER if: there is a broken bone or other significant injury.
  • Monitor the situation from home. We recommend monitoring the situation from home if: your child is not bleeding, no major bruising or swelling has occurred, no teeth have been moved or no teeth are significantly mobile.

If you are suffering from severe pain or discomfort don’t hesitate to call us! Our accommodating team will help you schedule an emergency exam as soon as possible. We’re here to help!



Emergency Dental Care FAQ

What is considered a dental emergency?

A dental emergency is any urgent problem involving your teeth, gums, or jaw that causes severe pain, swelling, bleeding, trauma, or signs of infection. Examples include a severe toothache, a broken or knocked-out tooth, a lost filling or crown that causes pain, or facial swelling with fever. If you are not sure, contact Mirabella Smiles so we can help you decide what to do next.

What should I do if I have a severe toothache?

If you have a severe toothache, gently rinse your mouth with warm water and try flossing around the tooth to remove any trapped food. You can take over-the-counter pain relievers as directed on the label, but do not place aspirin directly on the tooth or gums. Call Mirabella Smiles as soon as possible so we can examine the tooth and treat the cause of your pain.

Can Mirabella Smiles see me the same day for a dental emergency?

In many cases, Mirabella Smiles can offer same-day or next-day appointments for dental emergencies. When you call our office, we will ask about your symptoms and do our best to schedule you quickly so we can relieve your discomfort and protect your oral health.

Should I go to the emergency room or the dentist for a dental emergency?

Most dental emergencies, such as toothaches, broken teeth, or lost fillings, are best treated by a dentist because we can diagnose and fix the underlying problem. However, you should go to the emergency room or call emergency services if you have trouble breathing or swallowing, severe facial swelling, uncontrollable bleeding, or a serious injury to your face or jaw.

How can I prevent future dental emergencies?

You can help prevent dental emergencies by visiting Mirabella Smiles regularly for checkups and cleanings, brushing and flossing every day, wearing a mouthguard during sports, and avoiding chewing on hard objects like ice, pens, or popcorn kernels. Treating small problems early, such as cavities or cracked teeth, can also reduce your risk of sudden pain or breakage.
