NYC Emergency Dentist Dr. Steven Chavez Is Open for Business
No one expects a dental emergency, and they can be quite disconcerting when they happen. When dental disaster strikes, you need an NYC emergency dentist NOW and you want to be sure it’s someone you can trust to take care of your problem with compassion and expertise. Dr. Steven Chavez to the rescue!
Dr. Chavez and his practice, Blue Line Dental, offer Midtown NYC emergency dental care when you need it most. Steven Chavez founded his practice with the intention of bringing back the golden days of a dentist the whole family can rely on for a lifetime. As part of that commitment, he has made his services available after hours and on weekends by appointment for urgent dental needs.
Is It Really An Emergency, or Should You Wait?
Here are some of the most common dental problems that may require an after hours or weekend emergency dentist visit. This is by no means everything, though! If you’re in pain or faced with unusual, traumatic, or extreme dental or oral health circumstances, it’s never a bad idea to call us and find out your best next steps.
Tooth Pain:
Often referred to in the biz as “odontogenic pain,” this is perhaps the most common reason for an emergency dental visit. If tooth pain becomes intolerable or has a sudden onset, you may need an emergency dentist.
Injury:
Whether you have damaged, dislodged, or even knocked out teeth from sports, a car accident, a slip and fall, or any number of other causes of dental injury, this often justifies an urgent dental care visit. If you’re not in pain, it’s possible you can wait until normal business hours, but don’t leave this decision up to guesswork. Call us and discuss what happened so Dr. Chavez can make a recommendation that best suits your health, comfort, and safety.
Lost or Damaged Fillings:
This is another big one for our NYC emergency dental team. When a filling becomes dislodged or broken, it may leave sharp edges that can cause cuts or lacerations on the cheeks and tongue. Ouch! Plus, the tooth underneath that the filling was protecting may now be exposed in such a way that it causes pain. Don’t tough it out. We can help.
Broken Crowns:
If you break a crown, the biggest concern (beyond aesthetic appearance) is that you may swallow or inhale pieces of it. We will clean the area of all debris and often create a temporary crown to fit you with while we fabricate a new permanent crown.
Broken Dentures:
If you’ve broken a denture, please don’t continue to wear it. You may further damage it if it is repairable, and you may also hurt your gum tissues. Not all dentures are repairable once warped or broken, so a new denture may need to be crafted for you.
Loose or Broken Implants:
This is definitely worth a call to your NYC emergency dentist! Depending on the type of implant issue you’re having, waiting even just a few days can risk gum tissue growing over problem areas, resulting in the need for additional mouth surgery. Dr. Chavez and the Blue Line Dental team will help you determine the extent of the problem and what next steps are required.
