From Ozona, our office is 22.2 miles away in a straight line, and the drive is longer. A closer dentist may be the better first stop for a true crisis. For many problems, though, Pier Dental can see you the same day, so phone (727) 363-6169.
Dr. Brittany Pierpont makes room for emergencies. Swelling that spreads, a fever or trouble swallowing should go to a hospital emergency room first.
Toothache that will not settle
Severe or lingering pain points to decay, infection or a crack. Rinse with warm water and avoid very hot or cold food.
We find the cause and treat it, sometimes with a root canal.

Cracked or chipped tooth
A crack may announce itself with sharp pain on release after biting. Do not wait for it to get worse.
Depending on depth, bonding or a crown may fix it.

Knocked-out tooth
Hold the tooth by the crown and keep it in milk. Rinse the area and use a cold pack on the swelling.
Early treatment gives the best chance of saving it.
