Emergency Dentist 24/7 Taos, NM

Northern NM Center for Cosmetic Dentistry

When something goes wrong with your teeth, it can be hard to focus on anything. Whether it's because of pain or feeling self-conscious, dental problems often command our attention until they are resolved. This is just one of many reasons why it's important to address dental issues right away.

Unfortunately, scheduling an emergency or last-minute appointment with your dentist can be difficult. Most dentists' schedules are booked out far in advance, adding more stress to dental emergency situations. Here at Northern MN Center for Cosmetic Dentistry, we offer appointments within 24 hours of your call. This means that whenever a dental emergency strikes, we can care for you right away. No waiting and suffering, only fast, high-quality dental care.

We Serve the Whole Family

Our business stands on the belief that everyone should have a healthy and beautiful smile, and we offer our services to members of the whole family. This means that children experiencing a dental emergency can come to us as well, providing relief and assurance to kids and parents alike.

Whether you've visited us before or are a first-time client, you can be sure that you'll be treated with the utmost compassion, respect, and care in our clinic. Our number one priority is caring for every patient who walks through our doors with the same level of respect, expertise, and attention to detail.

We Offer a Variety of Emergency Services

We know that no two dental emergencies are the same, which is why we offer a wide range of dental services. No matter what you are experiencing, we will be able to treat your emergency with one of the following procedures:

• Crowns and caps. When you have these devices in your mouth, they can break and cause unbearable pain. We can repair or replace them during our emergency service appointments.
• Tooth pain. When a tooth causes you pain, it's a sign that something is truly wrong. There are usually underlying causes of tooth pain that need to be addressed. Our comprehensive services allow us to diagnose and address the root of the problem.
• Jaw pain. When your jaw is swollen or in pain, it can be a sign of an infection in the bone. This can lead to serious problems and should be addressed right away. We can help relieve jaw pain and treat the cause.
• Root canals. Sometimes, crowns, caps, or fillings are not enough to resolve dental problems. In these scenarios, we can perform an emergency root canal. This procedure often corrects the issue and avoids having to completely remove the tooth.
• Extractions. In some cases, infected, broken, or rotted teeth are too severely damaged to be restored. These teeth pose a threat to the surrounding teeth and gums and often cause extreme pain. We can remove the tooth to prevent further damage and work with you on post-extraction options, such as dental implants.
• Trauma-related dental injuries. Everything from slips and falls to sports accidents to grinding your teeth can cause teeth to break. When this happens, it's important to fix dental injuries right away. We can address the issue to minimize pain and speed up the healing process.

These options are available to all patients, including pediatric clients. Children are usually more active than adults, making them especially susceptible to dental injury. Rest assured that our team can help you and your family with any dental emergency that life throws at you.

Preventative Care

Though unforeseen accidents may cause dental emergencies, dental damage can be reduced and prevented. By following a simple set of best practices, you can minimize your risk of dental injuries and keep your smile beautiful and healthy.

To reduce your risk of dental emergencies, you should:

• Brush and floss your teeth regularly.
• Wear a custom-fit mouthguard when playing sports or engaging in high-impact activities.
• Wear a custom-fit mouthguard at night if you grind your teeth or have a tense jaw.
• See your dentist for regular cleanings and checkups.
