Emergency Dentistry

Sherwood Dental Care

Toothaches are one of the most common dental emergency calls we receive. Typically, a toothache is the sign of an infection in the tooth which is caused by tooth decay that has penetrated the pulp of the tooth.

If this is the case, you will need a root canal treatment. Many patients have heard horror stories about root canals. But with the techniques available to us today, it can be pain-free. We will temporarily relieve your pain during your initial visit and then schedule a time for you to return for the root canal treatment.

There are a number of other reasons that you may need a trip to the emergency dentist. Periodontal issues may result in a gum infection or abscess that can cause tooth pain. A chipped, broken, or cracked tooth are also reasons that you may need immediate care.
