Emergency
Dental emergencies can happen when you least expect them, and prompt care is essential to prevent pain, infection, or further complications. Common dental emergencies include severe toothaches, broken or chipped teeth, lost crowns or fillings, abscesses, or facial swelling. Emergency dentistry focuses on providing immediate relief while addressing the root cause of the issue.
At West Cobb Dental Studio, we understand that emergencies can be stressful. That’s why we prioritize same-day appointments and compassionate care to get you out of pain and back to your routine as quickly as possible.
During an emergency visit, we will thoroughly assess your symptoms, perform any necessary diagnostic imaging, and provide immediate treatment. Depending on the issue, treatment may involve relieving pain, repairing damage, draining an infection, or stabilizing teeth. Our team will work quickly to address your urgent needs while creating a plan for long-term care if needed.
Process at West Cobb Dental Studio
Our process begins with preparing the tooth by removing damaged areas and shaping it for the crown. We take a digital scan to design your custom crown. While waiting for the permanent crown, a temporary one will protect your tooth. During your second visit, we’ll bond the crown securely in place, ensuring a perfect fit and natural look.
