Think of us as the call to make when a tooth suddenly cracks or hurts. Pier Dental offers same-day emergency appointments, and Palm Harbor patients are welcome.
Dr. Brittany Pierpont works to relieve pain quickly and then lays out a plan.
Pain that will not quit
Ongoing throbbing, a bad taste or swelling around a tooth can signal infection. It will not resolve on its own.
Options include a root canal, drainage or removal.

A chipped or split tooth
Biting something hard is a common cause. Even if it feels okay, a crack can deepen.
We repair with bonding, a crown or root canal therapy as needed.

After a fall or collision
Check for loose, shifted or missing teeth. Rinse gently and use a cold compress.
A knocked-out tooth belongs in milk until you arrive.
