If You're Experiencing Any of These Symptoms, Call Us Now.

Dental emergencies don’t always look the same — but they all have one thing in common: waiting makes them worse. 

According to the ADA (American Dental Association), a dental emergency can be classified as anything that’s potentially life-threatening or anything that requires immediate attention to stop the bleeding or ease severe pain. 

Severe Toothache or Jaw Pain

A toothache that won’t quit is your body’s way of telling you something is seriously wrong. Whether it’s sharp and sudden or a deep, throbbing ache that’s keeping you up at night, severe tooth or jaw pain is a sign of infection, decay, or nerve damage that needs immediate attention. Don’t wait for it to get worse — call Smile Lab Dentistry today.

Accidents happen — a fall, a sports injury, biting down on something hard. A broken or knocked-out tooth is a time-sensitive emergency. The faster you act, the better the chances of saving the tooth. Dr. Ebrahimi and his team are experienced in handling trauma to the teeth and mouth quickly and effectively.

Swelling in your gums, jaw, or face is often a sign of a serious bacterial infection or abscess that can spread rapidly if left untreated. This is one of the most urgent dental emergencies — infections in the mouth can become life-threatening without prompt care. If you’re experiencing any swelling, call Smile Lab Dentistry immediately.

Bleeding from the gums or mouth that won’t stop — whether from an injury, a recent procedure, or an unknown cause — requires immediate professional attention. Uncontrolled oral bleeding is classified as a dental emergency by the American Dental Association and should never be ignored or waited out at home.

Your Questions, Answered

What counts as a dental emergency?

According to the American Dental Association, a dental emergency is anything potentially life-threatening or anything requiring immediate attention to stop bleeding or relieve severe pain. At Smile Lab Dentistry, we treat a wide range of urgent situations including severe toothaches, knocked-out or broken teeth, facial swelling, uncontrolled bleeding, soft tissue infections, and trauma to the mouth or jaw. If you’re unsure whether your situation qualifies — call us anyway. We’d rather you check than wait too long.

Yes. Smile Lab Dentistry offers same-day emergency appointments for patients in Manhattan and the surrounding neighborhoods. Dr. Ebrahimi and his team are on call 365 days a year specifically to handle urgent cases without delay. Call 332-237-6453 now and our team will get you in as quickly as possible.

If you have a knocked-out tooth, keep it moist by placing it in milk or between your cheek and gum — do not let it dry out. For severe pain, over-the-counter pain relievers can provide temporary relief. If you are experiencing significant facial swelling, apply a cold compress to the outside of your cheek. For uncontrolled bleeding, apply gentle pressure with clean gauze. Most importantly — call Smile Lab Dentistry immediately at 332-237-6453 so we can guide you through the next steps while you make your way to us.

The cost of emergency dental treatment in Manhattan varies depending on the nature and severity of the situation. At Smile Lab Dentistry, we accept most major insurance plans and offer a range of affordable payment options so that cost never stands between you and the care you need. Call us at 332-237-6453 and our team will walk you through your options before your appointment.

A mild, occasional toothache may not require emergency care — but a severe, persistent, or worsening toothache absolutely does. Intense tooth pain is often a sign of infection, abscess, nerve damage, or advanced decay that can spread quickly if left untreated. If your toothache is keeping you up at night, making it difficult to eat, or accompanied by swelling or fever, call Smile Lab Dentistry immediately for same-day care.

Smile Lab Dentistry in Union Square is one of Manhattan’s top-rated emergency dental practices. Dr. Waise Ebrahimi — a UC San Francisco doctoral graduate and 13-time federal NIH award recipient — leads a team that is on call 365 days a year, ready to provide same-day emergency care to patients across Manhattan. With a 4.7-star rating across 664 Google reviews and 1,759 ZocDoc reviews, Smile Lab Dentistry is the team Manhattan trusts when it matters most.

A knocked-out tooth is one of the most time-sensitive dental emergencies — the faster you act, the better the chance of saving it. Pick the tooth up by the crown, never the root. Rinse it gently with water if it’s dirty but do not scrub it. Try to reinsert it into the socket if possible, or keep it moist in milk or saliva. Then call Smile Lab Dentistry at 332-237-6453 immediately and get to our Union Square office as fast as you can. Time is everything.
