During office hours (Mon–Thu, 8 AM – 5 PM)

While you wait: quick first aid
- Knocked-out adult tooth: handle it by the crown (not the root), gently rinse, and keep it moist — ideally placed back in the socket or in a cup of milk. Minutes matter: call us immediately.
- Severe toothache: rinse with warm salt water, floss gently to remove trapped debris, and use over-the-counter pain relief. Never place aspirin directly on the gums.
- Broken tooth: save any pieces, rinse your mouth, and apply a cold compress to limit swelling.
When to go straight to the ER
Some situations shouldn't wait for a dentist. Go to the nearest emergency room — or call 911 — if you have:
- Facial swelling that affects your breathing or swallowing
- Uncontrolled bleeding
- Trauma involving a possible broken jaw or head injury
- High fever with severe dental pain (signs of spreading infection)
We treat urgent dental problems every day
From sudden toothaches to knocked-out teeth, Dr. Brady Thompson and our team provide emergency dental care for patients across Coalville and Summit County.
Severe toothache
Often caused by decay, infection, or a cracked tooth. Rinse with warm salt water, floss gently, and use over-the-counter pain relief — never place aspirin directly on the gums.
Knocked-out tooth
Handle by the crown, keep moist in milk or saliva, and call immediately. Re-implantation is most successful within the first hour.
Broken or chipped tooth
Save any fragments, rinse your mouth with warm water, and apply a cold compress to reduce swelling until you can be seen.
Lost filling or crown
Keep the restoration if possible. Avoid chewing on that side and call us — we'll get you in to prevent further damage.
Dental abscess or swelling
Swelling with fever or difficulty swallowing needs prompt attention. Call us during office hours; go to the ER if breathing is affected.
Soft-tissue injury
For cuts to lips, cheeks, or tongue with persistent bleeding, apply gentle pressure with clean gauze and call us for guidance.
