A dental emergency near the Bayway needs speed. Pier Dental offers same-day emergency appointments, often on the day you call, so you are not stuck with a toothache overnight.
Dr. Brittany Pierpont examines the problem, eases the pain and walks you through what comes next, including cost.
Pain, swelling or a bad taste
These signs can point to an abscess, which is a pocket of infection that can spread. Do not wait to see if it settles down.
Treatment could be drainage, a root canal or an extraction, depending on what we find.

A tooth that cracked or snapped
Fractures may be small but still reach the inside of the tooth. We repair them with bonding, a crown or a root canal, depending on depth.
Soft foods and the other side of your mouth help until you are seen.

A blow to the mouth
Rinse with warm water, apply a cold compress and keep any lost tooth moist in milk. Do not wrap it in a tissue.

About Bayway
The two drawbridges on the Pinellas Bayway were replaced with high-level causeways, with no movable span, in 2013-2014 on State Road 682 and 2019-2021 on State Road 679. That means no waiting for a bridge to open when you are in pain.
Our office at 8351 Blind Pass Rd is about 4.3 miles from Bayway Isles in a straight line. Regular hours run Monday through Thursday, with Friday by appointment.
Call Pier Dental at (727) 363-6169 right now. We will find the earliest opening, and we can cover CareCredit and our savings plan as well.
