Emergency Dental Services in Tampa, FL

Picture this: You're at home, living your normal life, when you suddenly realize there's something wrong with your teeth. Maybe your tooth is aching, you've lost a filling, or your jaw is beginning to swell up. When this happens, it's common to be stressed, especially if you're unable to see your regular dentist in time. If you work with us, though, there's no need to worry. Dr. Pamela Hite-Bocchino and the staff at Coast Dental Carrollwood are here to serve the people of Tampa, FL by providing emergency dental help when needed.

Everyone Is Welcome

Going to the dentist can be stressful, even in the most ideal situations. If you're visiting a new dentist for the first time to treat a painful and sudden dental emergency, it can be even scarier, especially if you're already uncomfortable with dental work in general. This problem is only amplified if the dental staff makes you uncomfortable or doesn't treat you the same as their regular visitors. At Coast Dental Carrollwood, you'll never need to feel out of place or disrespected. Our team strives to make everyone comfortable and happy while getting dental work done. It's not just about fixing your teeth — it's about making you smile.

Emergency Dental Services

There are a lot of things that qualify as a “dental emergency,” and some of them may not seem like a big deal when they first occur. Don't think that you can just ignore these problems, however. Even the smallest emergencies can become worse if left untreated. Instead, visit Dr. Pamela Hite-Bocchino and get the help you need to fix any dental emergency you have before the problem escalates. Some of the procedures you might need include:

• Crown and Filling Replacements. Crowns and fillings are designed to protect your teeth from further decay and harm, while still allowing you to eat, brush, and smile like normal. However, not all of them are made to last, and they can fall out. When this happens, it'll probably be painful, and the tooth will be reopened to bacteria and damage. Let Dr. Pamela Hite-Bocchino clean out the tooth and replace your crown or filling for you.
• Gum Pain. When your gums ache, it's often because of a bacterial infection. Regardless of why it's happening, it'll get worse if the problem isn't treated quickly. Instead, we can help you by pinpointing the source of the pain and making sure it goes away.
• Jaw Swelling. Your jaw plays a vital role in keeping the rest of your dental structure in place, so when your jaw begins to swell, it can compromise the rest of your mouth. This is usually the result of a bacterial infection, and this infection can spread to the gums and teeth rapidly. Trust the team at Coast Dental Carrollwood to reduce the swelling.
• Toothaches. Toothaches are common, but that doesn't mean they're easy to deal with. Not only can your teeth hurt for a variety of reasons, but the pain won't go away by ignoring it, especially since it's rarely easy to ignore in the first place. When you visit Dr. Pamela Hite-Bocchino, you can trust that the cause of your toothache will be identified and dealt with.
• Tooth Repairs. Your tooth's enamel may be the hardest substance in the body, but teeth can still break if there's enough force to damage them. Whether you've cracked your tooth by eating a piece of hard candy, or you've suffered an injury bad enough to leave a chip behind, tooth damage is often painful, stressful, and sometimes a source of insecurity. At Coast Dental Carrollwood, you can get your teeth cleaned and repaired.
• Tooth Replacements. If your teeth suffer from enough damage or force, you can lose them entirely. Tooth loss is often painful, stressful, and damaging to not just your smile, but to the rest of your mouth as well. The empty socket can suffer from bacteria or injury, and it can be difficult to eat or brush correctly. When your teeth are lost, Dr. Pamela Hite-Bocchino can get you set up with a replacement and repair any damage to the socket as well.
• Root Canals. Sometimes, if the decay is severe enough, a dentist needs to drill into the tooth to clean out the damage before things get even worse. A root canal is important for protecting your teeth from further decay. If you need an emergency root canal, then you can trust Dr. Pamela Hite-Bocchino and her team at Coast Dental Carrollwood to make the procedure as comfortable and efficient as possible.

Avoiding an Emergency

Despite the availability of our emergency dental services, avoiding these emergencies entirely tends to be preferable, albeit not always possible. To keep your teeth healthier for longer, you should eat right, brush properly, use floss, and contact your dentist if you have any questions or concerns.
