Contact UsWhat Are Dental Emergencies?
Looking for urgent relief when you have a dental emergency can be a stressful, painful experience. Unexpected dental emergencies can be due to sports injuries, physical altercations, stumbling, or just eating crunchy foods. Our dedicated staff in Rockville, MD and Washington, D.C. is thrilled to offer emergency dental care for you and your family. We can effectively address many kinds of serious dental concerns for patients, including weakened fillings, oral discomfort, and knocked-out (avulsed) or cracked teeth. Dental trauma doesn't necessarily result in pain right away so it's very important to get your teeth assessed for any hidden damage. At Dlight Dental, we strive to provide emergency care as quickly as we can.
What Can I Expect During My Visit?
When you come for your exam, our team will carefully assess your specific concerns before giving a diagnosis and coming up with a custom treatment strategy. Full-mouth x-rays might be recommended to look for hidden trauma in areas, like the tooth roots and bone tissue. When we fully learn the degree of your oral issue, we can review your options for treatment. At Dlight Dental, the primary purpose of emergency dental care is to help with tooth discomfort and detect trauma. We aim to reinstate the function, appeal, and overall health of your smile as swiftly as possible. However, follow-up appointments may sometimes be necessary.
Emergency Dental Care Reviews
I had a dental emergency while staying in a nearby hotel. Everyone was cheerful and helpful and I was worked into the schedule. Dr. Valle explained what was going on with my tooth and what needed to be done in order to stabilize the situation. He was very thorough, efficient and gentle. While I'm not planning to have another dental emergency in DC, if I do, I'm going to Dlight Dental!

How do dental emergencies usually happen?
Dental emergencies can happen in any number of ways. Some of the most common we see are accidents, sports-related injuries, tooth decay, and infection. However, there are many other occurences that could lead to a dental emergency, so contact us immediately if you feel you require emergency care.
What happens if a broken tooth is left untreated?
Unfortunately, an untreated crack tooth will lead to increased pain and sensitivity in the area. In addition, the gums will likely begin to swell and the patient will be at risk for developing an oral infection. These symptoms will only continue to get worse until there is no option but to remove the tooth and likely perform additional procedures to restore the oral health of the patient.
