Emergency Dentistry in Kanata
Dental emergencies don't follow a schedule—but your care team should. At MYsmile Dental in Kanata, we provide prompt, compassionate emergency dental care with same-day appointments available for urgent issues like toothaches, injuries, infections, and broken teeth.
Same-Day Emergency Dental Care in Kanata
When you're in pain or facing unexpected dental trauma, you shouldn't have to wait. We set aside time each day to treat emergency patients, and our experienced team is equipped to diagnose and treat a wide range of urgent conditions.
We provide same-day care for:
Severe toothaches
Broken, chipped, or knocked-out teeth
Swelling or dental abscesses
Lost fillings, crowns, or bridges
Bleeding or trauma from accidents
Pain after dental work or extractions
Sudden gum infections or jaw discomfort
Whether you're a new or existing patient, we'll help relieve your discomfort quickly and plan the next steps for full recovery.
Common Dental Emergencies We Treat
-
Toothache or Dental Pain
Persistent or severe pain may indicate infection, nerve inflammation, or decay. We'll perform diagnostic imaging to determine the source and provide relief through medication, fillings, or root canal referral if needed.
-
Broken or Cracked Teeth
Whether caused by injury or biting something hard, cracked or broken teeth can expose sensitive inner structures. We offer bonding, crowns, or inlays/onlays depending on severity.
-
Dental Abscess or Infection
Signs include swelling, fever, bad taste in the mouth, and pain that spreads to the ear or jaw. We'll assess the infection and offer treatment, antibiotics, or referral for root canal therapy if required.
-
Lost or Loose Fillings or Crowns
These leave your tooth exposed and sensitive. We'll replace or re-cement your restoration using long-lasting, aesthetic materials.
How to Handle a Dental Emergency Before You Arrive
While you wait for your appointment:
Rinse your mouth with warm salt water for discomfort or swelling
Apply a cold compress (outside of face) to reduce pain or swelling
Save any broken or knocked-out tooth fragments in a sealed container with milk or saliva
Avoid chewing on the affected side
Take over-the-counter pain relievers (as directed)
Always call our office for guidance—we'll talk you through next steps based on your symptoms.
