Dental emergencies do not follow a schedule. Pier Dental can often see urgent patients the same day, and Dr. Brittany Pierpont reserves time for them. Phone (727) 363-6169 and describe what is happening.
We are in St. Pete Beach, 22.2 miles from Braden Castle in a straight line, with a longer drive on the road. If you cannot make that trip, a closer urgent option may serve you better right now.
A tooth that hurts when you chew
Biting pain can come from decay, a crack or inflamed nerve tissue. It rarely clears up on its own.
An exam and X-rays tell us which one it is.

A cusp or corner that broke away
Save the piece if you can and rinse gently. Soft foods help in the meantime.
Treatment depends on the depth of the break, from bonding to a crown.

Injury from a fall or collision
Cold compresses ease swelling. A tooth knocked clean out should be stored in milk.
We evaluate the tooth, gums and bone around it, then explain the next step.

About Braden Castle
The Braden Castle Park Historic District lies between two rivers, the Manatee and the Braden. Neighborhoods with that much water and shoreline see their share of slips, bikes and boats.
If you are hurt, call us before driving so we can advise you.
Call (727) 363-6169. When cost is on your mind, ask about CareCredit and our $499-a-year in-house plan.
