A tooth emergency rarely comes at a good time. If you are in Egypt Lake-Leto, call Pier Dental at (727) 363-6169 and tell us what is going on.
We keep room for same-day emergency care. Dr. Pierpont focuses on relief first, then explains the next step and its cost.
A tooth that broke off
Gather the pieces, rinse with warm water and skip hard foods. A bit of gauze eases bleeding from a cut lip or tongue.
Whether it needs bonding, a crown or a root canal depends on depth.

A strike to the mouth
Check for loose or missing teeth. A tooth that is fully out should be kept in milk and brought along.
The sooner it is seen, the better its chance.

Infection that radiates
A bad ache with swelling or a bump on the gum may signal an abscess. These do not clear alone and can spread.
See us the same day if you can.

About Egypt Lake-Leto
Egypt Lake-Leto lies just north of Tampa International Airport. Pain is less predictable than flight schedules, so keep our number handy.
Our office is about 24 miles from there in a straight line, and the road is longer. A call before you leave lets us hold a spot and talk you through the trip.
Call now: (727) 363-6169. Say it is an emergency and we will find the soonest chair.
