Call Now or Wait Until Morning

Some problems are true emergencies and some are urgent but can be scheduled. When you are not sure which one you have, call us. A short phone conversation can sort it out.

Call right awayUsually safe to schedule soon
A knocked-out permanent toothA small chip with no pain
Severe pain that does not easeA loose filling that is only annoying
Facial or gum swellingMild sensitivity to hot or cold
A cracked tooth with sharp painA rough edge that does not cut your tongue
A lost crown that exposes raw toothA tooth that bothers you only occasionally

Go to the nearest emergency room or call 911 for bleeding that will not stop, swelling that affects breathing or swallowing, or a suspected broken jaw.

What to Do Until You Reach Us

These steps follow guidance from the American Dental Association and are meant to protect the tooth until you are seen.

Knocked-out tooth
Keep it moist, and if you can, place it back in the socket without touching the root. If not, hold it between your cheek and gum or in milk, and call us right away.
Cracked tooth
Rinse with warm water and use a cold compress on your cheek to limit swelling.
Toothache
Rinse with warm water and gently floss out trapped food. Do not place aspirin on the gum.
Lost crown or filling
Keep the crown if you have it, avoid chewing on that side, and call us so we can protect the exposed tooth.
Bitten lip or tongue
Clean gently and apply a cold compress. Seek care if the bleeding does not stop.

A knocked-out permanent tooth has the best chance of being saved when you are seen quickly, so call as soon as it happens.

Why the Emergency Room Is Rarely the Final Answer

The National Center for Health Statistics reports about 1.9 million emergency department visits a year for tooth disorders in 2020 to 2022. Most emergency rooms can manage pain or start antibiotics, but they cannot repair a cracked tooth, treat an infected nerve, or place a crown. A dental visit addresses the actual cause.

What Happens at Your Emergency Visit

We keep emergency visits focused so you get relief first and a clear plan second.

  1. 1Diagnosis and imagingWe take X-rays and review them with you personally, not just hand you a result.
  2. 2Immediate stabilizationWhatever eases your pain fastest comes first, such as a temporary filling, an extraction, or antibiotics for an infection.
  3. 3Healing support when appropriateAfter an extraction, platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) made from your own blood may support healing.
  4. 4A plan for lasting repairWe explain what comes next, in what order, and why, before any further treatment.

Dr. Khezri follows a foundations-first approach, so urgent visits also consider your gum health and what may have caused the problem.

Follow-Up Care With the Same Dentist

Emergency treatment is often the first step and not the last. If a tooth needs a crown, a filling, or replacement, you continue with the same dentist and the same records, with no new office to learn. Our restorative dentistry services cover crowns through full mouth rehabilitation, and an extracted tooth can later be replaced with a dental implant planned from the same 3D imaging.

Frequently Asked Questions About Emergency Dental Care in Deltona

Do you offer same-day emergency dental care in Deltona?

We work to see urgent patients as quickly as we can and keep schedule flexibility for them. Call our Orange City office at (386) 775-4300 first so we can tell you whether your problem needs to be seen right away and when we can see you.

What counts as a dental emergency?

Common emergencies include a knocked-out tooth, severe or worsening pain, facial swelling, a cracked tooth with sharp pain, bleeding that will not stop, and a lost crown that exposes the tooth. If you are unsure, call us and describe your symptoms.

What should I do if my tooth is knocked out?

Keep the tooth moist, and if you can, gently place it back in the socket without touching the root. If you cannot, hold it between your cheek and gum or in milk. Call us immediately, since a quick visit gives the tooth its best chance of being saved.

Should I go to the ER or a dentist for tooth pain?

Go to the ER for heavy bleeding, swelling that affects breathing or swallowing, or a suspected broken jaw. For tooth pain, a cracked tooth, or a lost crown, a dentist can treat the cause, which an ER usually cannot.

Can you pull a tooth in an emergency?

Yes, when an extraction is the right treatment, we can stabilize the area and discuss replacement options afterward. We may use PRF to support healing when it is appropriate for your case.

I live in Deltona and have never been to your office. Can I still call?

Yes. New patients are always welcome, and you do not need to be an existing patient to call about an urgent problem. Our office is at 272 E Graves Ave in Orange City, a short drive from Deltona.
