How We Treat Dental Emergencies

As nice and convenient as it would be, dental emergencies don’t resolve on their own; in fact, things tend to worsen without professional care. With that in mind, if you or someone you know suffers a dental emergency in Idaho Falls, here are three simple steps you can follow:

  • Call Our Office – As soon as you realize you’ve hurt your smile, call our office and describe your symptoms over the phone. We’ll let you know if you need to come in ASAP, and in any case, we can provide you with first-aid tips over the phone.
  • Attend Your Same-Day Appointment – Not all emergencies require same-day care, but if yours do, rest assured that Dr. Jenkins wants to get you out of pain immediately. Once you’re here, we can perform an examination, take X-rays if needed, and begin determining the best course of treatment.
  • Receive Urgent Care – Once we know how to treat your situation, we’ll work quickly to resolve your discomfort and ensure that everything is okay with your mouth. This might involve one or multiple different treatments; however, we’re firmly committed to helping you leave without dental pain!<
