We Offer Emergency Dental Services

The need for a dentist can sometimes arise unexpectedly and can shake up our daily routines. Often, these problems are painful and distracting, and it may seem easier to just take some over-the-counter painkillers and forget about it, but the longer you wait, the worse the issue will get. Ortega Dental offers a variety of helpful services to cover any dental issue you may face, including:

• Toothache repair. When your teeth hurt, there could be a number of things causing that pain, from food stuck between them to a problem with the gums. Don’t let the problem get worse. If you seek treatment now, Dr. Flores and his team can find out what’s causing the pain and fix it for you, so that you don’t have to worry about it again.
• Help for gum pain. Much like with teeth, gum pain can cause a lot of problems and be caused by a few different things, most commonly a bacterial infection. You want to solve the problem right away before it spreads, especially if your gums are bleeding or enlarged.
• Tooth damage repair. “Tooth damage” is a broad topic that covers everything from small chips to serious decay, but all damages can be problematic and should be addressed as soon as possible to avoid worse issues later on. If the damage is severe enough, the tooth might need to be removed and replaced, and the area around the tooth should be cleaned as well. Even small damages need repairs, in order to help you have a full, healthy, and happy smile.
• Tooth loss. A lost tooth goes a step beyond normal tooth damage and can leave behind more problems than just an empty socket and some pain. Depending on why the tooth was lost, you could be suffering from severe decay, a gum infection, or a bad facial injury that has damaged or is threatening to damage more of your teeth. Trust Ortega Dental to help by replacing the lost teeth and solving the problem to avoid it happening again.
• Jaw swelling. A swollen jaw might not seem like a big dental emergency compared to problems with your teeth and gums, but it can be a sign of worse problems, which can spread to nearby bones and tissue. We’ll fix the problem for you at the source, so take care and act quickly.
• Filling and crown loss and replacement. A lost filling or crown can be the result of improper material use, facial damage, or tooth decay, and their loss can continue to cause worse decay and pain for the tooth. You need the problem fixed quickly, even if it may seem minor at first. Dr. Flores can replace those fillings and crowns, and repair any damage done before and after the loss.
• Root canal. A root canal is widely believed to be an uncomfortable procedure; however, it doesn’t have to be. Modern procedures have made root canals easier and more comfortable than ever before. Regardless, you will need to see a dentist immediately before the pain escalates further. Ortega Dental cares about your comfort and health, and we’ll do our best to make the process easy and quick for you, while still removing the decay and helping you smile comfortably again. You can rest easy knowing you’ll be in the expert hands of a trustworthy and compassionate team.

Avoid Problems Before They Start

Dr. Flores and Ortega Dental are here to help you when you need an emergency dental service, but there are ways to avoid that need. No problem is completely avoidable, of course, and accidents will happen, but you can do your best to keep your dental system working in the meantime. Take good care of your teeth and listen to the advice of dental professionals to make sure your smile remains healthy and clean. By brushing regularly, flossing just as often, and keeping out for any possible problems with your gums, you can minimize the risk of needing to call for dental assistance in the first place. Continue to visit your dentist regularly and ask them about any concerns you might have.
