Our Care Team Accepts All Patients

Whether this will be your first appointment with I Am Dental, or you’re a patient of many years, you can expect compassion and care from the moment you enter our office.

Available Emergency Services at I Am Dental

No matter the form of your dental emergency — if you’ve had jaw or gum pain that hasn’t gotten better, or if a recent injury has caused issues in your mouth — we can help. Dr. Skormin and his team provide many dental services to be sure your emergency gets treated, relieving you of stress and pain and allowing your dental health to improve in the future.

Dental services provided include:

• Toothache relief. Oftentimes tooth pain has gone ignored and can lead to much worse issues as a result. If this is the case, or if the tooth pain has just cropped up, professional help can be necessary. At home pain relief can be helpful short-term, but the larger problem causing your tooth pain needs to be addressed before your pain becomes worse or the problem spreads. Our office can provide long-lasting and permanent treatment and pain relief.
• Jaw swelling reduction. If your jaw has been swelling up, this can also be a sign of an underlying issue, particularly since your jaw is an important framework for the bones and tissues in your mouth. Jaw swelling could be a sign of an infection that could negatively affect your oral health. The more quickly this issue is addressed, the sooner you can be free of the stress and inconvenience of it, and the healthier your mouth will be.
• Gum pain. Pain in your gums often points to issues deep within your gum tissues and is also something that can create much worse issues if left untreated. Dr. Skormin wants to ensure that you will be relieved of this discomfort and treat the problem at its source.
• Root canals. If a tooth is damaged or decayed, it needs its connection to the root restored before more drastic measures are needed. The sooner this problem is found and treated, the sooner your oral health can be restored without needing to resort to an extraction. Teeth that have previously needed a filling or crown are more vulnerable to the deterioration of their root connection, so the sooner these issues are checked, the better.
• Avulsed and damaged root care. Tooth ‘knockouts’ are usually caused by an accident like an auto accident or a sports injury. The tooth socket needs to be inspected by a professional to check for additional damage and to see if the tooth can be saved and restored. Each case is different, and the damage to your avulsed tooth could include cracking, breaking, or chipping. To be sure of the right course of action, a professional’s care is necessary.
• Tooth extractions. A severely damaged tooth may require a more severe solution. If the deterioration has been left untreated for too long, an extraction may be needed before an infection can spread to the rest of your mouth. Dr. Skormin and his team can provide immediate pain relief and protect the rest of your oral health from the negative consequences of decay.
• Filling and crown repair. A crown or a filling is important to the health of your teeth, and sometimes they become loose or can even fall out. It’s important to get them repaired or replaced to protect your teeth and prevent future damage.
