For people in Bahia Shores, an emergency dentist is only a short drive away. Pier Dental offers same-day appointments for dental emergencies, often the day you call, and Dr. Brittany Pierpont leads with relief and clear answers.
There is no need to feel embarrassed about how it happened or how long it has hurt. We just want to get you comfortable and fix the cause.
When the pain will not stop
Pain that throbs, spreads to your jaw or wakes you at night calls for an exam. The cause may be decay, a crack or an abscess, and each needs different treatment.
Swelling, fever or trouble swallowing mean you should call us immediately.

Cracked or chipped on something hard
A bite that feels wrong or sharp after chewing can mean a crack. Cracks do not heal themselves, and they tend to expand.
We repair with bonding or a crown when we can, and a root canal when the inside of the tooth is affected.

After a fall, a hit or a sports mishap
Rinse with warm water, apply a cold compress and call us. If a tooth is knocked out, store it in milk or a preservation solution, never dry.
The sooner we see you, the better the odds of saving it.
