Why Visit a Dentist Instead of the ER for Emergency Dental Needs?

While the physicians at the emergency room are skilled at treating health emergencies, they are not familiar with dental care. They can triage any problem that you by stopping the bleeding, but they will not be able to restore a damaged tooth. Likewise, if you visit an emergency room due to dental pain, they can provide you with pain relief but cannot discover the source of the pain and solve it. This is why you need to visit the dentist instead. Remember that even if you go to the emergency room, you will still likely need to visit the dentist anyway. Visit us for emergency dental care instead to save yourself the extra pain, time and money.
