A cracked tooth on the key can feel far from help. Call Pier Dental at (727) 363-6169 and we will tell you what to do and when we can see you, often the same day.
Dr. Brittany Pierpont works on stopping the pain first, then lays out the plan and cost.
Tooth pain that is getting worse
Pain that spreads, throbs at night or comes with swelling may be an infection. Take care not to ignore it.
A root canal or other treatment can resolve it.

Broken fillings and snapped teeth
Food can break a tooth or loosen a filling. Keep the area clean, avoid chewing on it and save any pieces.
We repair with bonding, a crown or root canal therapy.

After a fall or collision
Boats, bikes and pavement all injure teeth. Rinse gently, ice the cheek and bring any tooth that came out in milk.
Time is on your side only briefly.

About Longboat Key
Armands opened in 1929, and that a 1921 hurricane took out most of its farmland and buildings. Island life has long meant planning for the unexpected.
We are roughly 24 miles from the key in a straight line, and the drive is longer. Call first so we can prepare.
Do not wait. Call (727) 363-6169 and say you have a dental emergency.
