A bite of something hard, a slip on a wet deck or a toothache at midnight can turn a good day sideways. Belleair Beach patients can call Pier Dental and ask for a same-day emergency visit.
Dr. Brittany Pierpont sees urgent cases promptly, eases the pain and then explains what comes next.
Aching tooth or swollen gum
Persistent pain and swelling can mean infection under the gum line. Rinse with warm water and call us.
We may recommend a root canal, drainage or removal depending on the cause.

Falls, knocks and sports injuries
Lost or loosened teeth need a prompt look. Keep a lost tooth in milk and bring it with you.
Cold packs outside the cheek can calm swelling in the meantime.

Chips and cracks
Do not test a cracked tooth by biting down. Hold off on hard or hot foods until we have checked it.
Repairs can include bonding, an onlay or a crown.
