Common Dental Emergencies

At Gauri Savant DDS PC, we understand that dental crises come in many forms, ranging from sudden physical trauma to progressively worsening pain. Recognizing the signs of an emergency is the first step toward saving a tooth and preventing the spread of infection. Below are the most frequent issues we treat in our New York, NY office. If you are experiencing any of these symptoms, please reach out to Dr. Gauri Savant immediately for expert intervention.

  • Severe Toothache

    Severe toothache can be a sign of an underlying problem, such as decay, abscess, or infection. Ignoring pain can lead to severe complications. Gauri Savant DDS PC strives to identify the root cause of your pain and offer the best treatment for your situation.

  • Knocked Out Teeth

    Time is critical if you have knocked a tooth out. Rinse it gently, and then try to put the tooth back into its socket. Avoid touching the root. If this is not possible, you can keep the tooth moist by placing it in a container with milk or saliva. Gauri Savant DDS PC can provide instructions and emergency treatment. The chances of saving a tooth are significantly increased if you act quickly.

  • Loose or Dislodged Teeth

    Trauma can cause a tooth to become dislodged. If your tooth is loose, you must seek immediate treatment. Dr. Gauri Savant will reposition and stabilize it to avoid further damage, increasing the chances of saving it. Please contact our office immediately for assistance.

  • Dental Abscess

    An abscess in the mouth can be a serious infection. It can cause severe pain, swelling, and pus. Untreated, the infection can spread to other areas of the body, causing severe health problems. Gauri Savant DDS PC’s team will treat the abscess immediately to eliminate the infection and restore oral hygiene.

  • Broken or Cracked Teeth

    A cracked or broken tooth is susceptible to infection and further damage. Dr. Gauri Savant will assess the extent of the problem and recommend the best treatment. This may include bonding, crowns, or, in more severe cases, extraction. It is important to seek immediate treatment to avoid complications.

  • Damaged Dental Work

    It is vital to repair a lost filling or crown as soon as possible to avoid further damage. Gauri Savant DDS PC offers its services in repairing damaged dental work.

  • Oral Cavity Injuries or Bleeding Gums

    Due to the abundance of blood vessels in this area, injuries to the gums and other soft tissues may result in excessive bleeding. If bleeding persists, treat your situation as a dental emergency and seek immediate help.

Benefits of Emergency Dentistry

Emergency dentistry provides fast, effective treatment when you need it most—helping relieve severe tooth pain, stop bleeding, and control infection before it worsens. Prompt care can prevent minor issues from turning into serious complications, potentially saving your natural tooth and avoiding more complex, costly procedures later.


Seeking immediate treatment for dental trauma, cracked teeth, abscesses, or sudden swelling also protects your overall health. Infections in the mouth can spread if left untreated, making urgent dental care essential for both comfort and safety.


Most importantly, emergency dentistry restores peace of mind. Quick diagnosis, immediate pain relief, and a clear treatment plan help you feel confident knowing your smile—and your health—are back on track.

"I've been a patient of Dr Savant for over 20 years. I first visited her when I moved to NYC and was looking for someone I could depend on and now I'm still visiting her twice a year for all my dental needs. My wife now is a patient and so are both our children (17 &19). She is always so friendly, a great communicator and continues to make our dental visits something we don't dread...and that's saying a LOT!!!!"

Emergency Dentistry FAQ

  • What qualifies as a dental emergency?

    A dental emergency includes any situation involving severe tooth pain, swelling, bleeding, infection, or damage to a tooth. Common emergencies include knocked-out teeth, broken or cracked teeth, dental abscesses, lost crowns or fillings, and severe toothaches. Prompt treatment is important to relieve pain and prevent further complications.

  • What should I do if I have a severe toothache?

    If you have a severe toothache, rinse your mouth with warm water and gently floss to remove any trapped debris. Avoid placing aspirin directly on the gums, as this can cause irritation. Contact your dentist as soon as possible, since tooth pain may indicate infection, decay, or other serious issues that require treatment.

  • Can a knocked-out tooth be saved?

    Yes, a knocked-out tooth can often be saved if treated quickly. Handle the tooth by the crown, avoid touching the root, and gently rinse it if dirty. If possible, place the tooth back into the socket or keep it in milk and seek dental care immediately. The sooner you receive treatment, the higher the chance of saving the tooth.

  • When should I go to the dentist for a broken or cracked tooth?

    You should see a dentist as soon as possible if you break or crack a tooth, even if there is no pain. Damage can expose the inner layers of the tooth, increasing the risk of infection or further breakage. Early treatment helps protect the tooth and restore its function and appearance.

  • How quickly should I seek treatment for a dental emergency?

    Dental emergencies should be addressed as soon as possible, ideally the same day. Delaying treatment can lead to increased pain, infection, or permanent damage. Contact your dentist immediately so they can evaluate the situation and provide the necessary care to protect your oral health.
