- Call the office immediately to make an appointment – we have reserved time each day for people who have an emergency (please do not just show up).
- In the event that you are out of town or the office is closed, attempt to make yourself as comfortable as possible – place comfort wax on anything sharp. No wax? Try sugarless chewing gum for a quick fix!
- Larger sections of wire can be cut with a pair of nail clippers.
- If something comes loose, save it in a baggie & bring it with you to your emergency appointment.
- If you have fallen, been hit in the mouth, chipped a tooth or lost a tooth also call your dentist to check for fractures & nerve damage.
- If none of these options work, you can call the emergency dental clinic at 416.485.7121 for remedial emergency care.
