Section 2 – What Is a Dental Emergency | Newbury Smiles

What Counts as a
Dental Emergency?

Many people wait too long — unsure if their pain is "bad enough" to call. Here's the truth: if it hurts, something has changed in your mouth, or it's affecting your daily life, it is worth an emergency call. We'd rather hear from you early than treat a worsened condition later.

⚠️

Don't delay dental emergencies. A minor infection left untreated can spread to your jaw, neck, or sinuses. A small crack today can become a tooth loss tomorrow. Same-day care typically means simpler, less expensive treatment.

🔴 Critical Emergency

Swelling in Jaw, Cheek, or Neck

Facial or jaw swelling often signals a spreading dental abscess — a bacterial infection that can become life-threatening if it reaches deeper tissues. If you have swelling alongside fever or difficulty swallowing, seek emergency care immediately. Do not wait.

Visible swelling Fever Difficulty swallowing Foul taste
⚡ High Priority

Sudden Severe Tooth Pain

Throbbing, constant, or sharp pain that appears suddenly typically signals infection, a cracked nerve, or deep decay. Over-the-counter pain relief is not a solution.

Throbbing pain Pain when biting Keeps you up at night
⚡ High Priority

Broken or Cracked Tooth

A significant break or crack — especially one causing pain — exposes your tooth's inner structure to bacteria, leading rapidly to infection or tooth loss.

Visible crack Sharp edge Pain with pressure
⚠️ Moderate

New Tooth Sensitivity

Sudden, intense sensitivity to hot, cold, or sweets can indicate enamel erosion, a cracked tooth, or nerve exposure — all of which worsen without treatment.

Cold water pain Hot drinks Lingering ache
⚠️ Moderate

Lost Crown or Broken Filling

A lost crown or broken filling leaves the underlying tooth unprotected and vulnerable to sensitivity, cracking, and decay. The longer it's exposed, the worse it gets.

⚡ High Priority

Knocked-Out or Loose Tooth

A knocked-out tooth can often be re-implanted if you act within 30–60 minutes. Keep it moist (in milk or saliva) and call us immediately — time is critical.

Emergency Dental
Care You Can Count On

At Newbury Smiles, we handle the full spectrum of dental emergencies — all in one visit when possible. From sudden infection to a chipped tooth after a fall, our team moves quickly to diagnose and treat so you leave feeling better, not just "seen."

Emergency Tooth Pain Relief

Sudden, severe toothache is the #1 reason patients call us. We diagnose the source fast — whether it's infection, a cracked root, or nerve exposure — and provide immediate relief with targeted treatment.

Call Now →

Emergency Root Canals

When infection reaches the tooth's nerve, a root canal is the only way to stop the pain and save the tooth. We perform same-day root canals with modern techniques that are far more comfortable than their reputation suggests.

Call Now →

Emergency Extractions

When a tooth is too damaged or infected to save, a same-day extraction removes the source of pain. We always discuss replacement options (implants, bridges) at your visit so you have a clear path forward.

Call Now →

Lost Crown & Broken Filling Repair

A missing crown or broken filling leaves your tooth exposed and vulnerable. We restore or re-cement same day to protect the tooth and eliminate sensitivity.

Call Now →

Chipped & Broken Tooth Repair

Whether from an accident, sports injury, or biting something hard — we smooth, bond, or crown your chipped tooth the same day, restoring function and appearance quickly.

Call Now →

Emergency Consultation & X-Rays

Not sure what's wrong? Come in for an emergency consultation. We take digital X-rays, perform a thorough exam, and give you a clear diagnosis and options — no guessing, no vague answers.

📞 (805) 499-3691 — Call Us Directly

If you’re in significant pain, have visible swelling, a broken tooth, new sensitivity, or anything that has suddenly changed in your mouth — it qualifies. You do not need a knocked-out tooth to call us. When in doubt, call and describe your symptoms. We’d rather hear from you early than treat a worsened situation later.
Yes. We keep dedicated time slots for dental emergencies every single day. When you call and describe your symptoms, our team will prioritize your situation and get you in as fast as possible — often the same morning or afternoon, or the next business day.
Only a dentist can determine that after examining the tooth and taking X-rays. If the tooth structure is healthy enough, a root canal can save it. If it’s too severely damaged or infected, extraction may be necessary. Dr. Saadat will always explain your options clearly before any treatment begins.
Our goal is the opposite — to eliminate your pain. We use strong local anesthesia so the procedure itself is comfortable. Many patients are surprised that the experience is far less uncomfortable than the pain they came in with. Sedation options are also available if anxiety is a concern.
Over-the-counter pain relievers like ibuprofen can help temporarily reduce pain and inflammation. Avoid hot, cold, or sweet foods and drinks. Do not place aspirin directly on the gum — it can burn the tissue. A cold compress on your cheek can reduce swelling. And call us — we may be able to get you in sooner than you expect.

Yes — we accept most PPO dental insurance plans including Delta Dental, MetLife, Cigna, Aetna, Guardian, and many others. We do not accept HMO, Medi-Cal, or Medicaid. We’ll verify your benefits before treatment and explain any out-of-pocket costs clearly. CareCredit financing is also available.
It can be. New, intense sensitivity to hot, cold, or sweet stimuli may indicate enamel erosion, a cracked tooth, or early nerve involvement. These conditions tend to worsen quickly without treatment. If the sensitivity is severe, sudden, or accompanied by any pain, treat it as an emergency and call us right away.
Yes — please call us. A lost crown exposes the underlying tooth, which is typically already weakened. Without protection, it becomes very sensitive and can crack further or decay rapidly. In many cases we can re-cement or replace your crown the same day. Keep the crown if you still have it and bring it with you.
Absolutely. We welcome patients from throughout the Conejo Valley and surrounding communities, including Thousand Oaks, Westlake Village, Moorpark, Camarillo, Agoura Hills, Oak Park, Dos Vientos Ranch, Casa Conejo, and more. Our office at 3327 Kimber Dr, Suite D is centrally located and easily accessible from all of these areas.
Act fast — you have the best chance of saving the tooth within 30–60 minutes. Handle the tooth by the crown (not the root), gently rinse it without scrubbing, and keep it moist in milk, saliva, or a tooth preservation kit. Call us immediately at (805) 499-3691 and come in right away.
