A dental emergency requires immediate attention and treatment. If left untreated, it may result in severe pain, swelling, or tooth loss and require expensive and extensive dental treatments.
If you are in Centennial, CO, and have a dental emergency, contact Colorado Wellness Dentistry at (303) 798-1068 for prompt care.
A broken or knocked-out tooth causes extreme pain. Seeking urgent dental care not only helps with pain management but can also help save your tooth.
You may experience sudden sharp pain in your mouth when eating certain foods or enjoying certain drinks. Cavities are the main cause of such pain. Seek emergency dental services right away to avoid further complications.
A swollen jaw can be the result of tooth infection, gum disease, swollen lymph nodes, and, in extremely rare cases, cancer. It is best to schedule an emergency dental appointment and seek treatment at the earliest.
Excessive or severe bleeding from gums may require emergency dental care. You should see a dentist as soon as possible if you have cuts in your mouth from eating certain foods or being involved in an accident.
This is often a sign that your crown/filling has become loose. It is important to seek emergency dental care since this may lead to infection.
While you wait for emergency care or a word back from your dentist, it is important to stay calm. Here are a few things you can do in the event of a dental emergency:
Some dental emergencies can be temporarily managed with over-the-counter medications. However, to get proper treatment, you should visit your dentist.

Colorado Wellness Dentistry is at the forefront of dental treatment for our patients, who are focused on whole body health. Our office understands that oral healthcare is the gateway to the rest of a person’s wellness. We care for our patients as a whole person. Dr. Williams uses modern courses of treatment including LANAP for gum disease and periodontal problems, Bioclear for cosmetic and alternative treatment to crowns, Mercury removal for overall health and wellness for metal sensitive patients, and whole family dental care. When you find a home at Colorado Wellness Dentistry you feel in control of your treatment and oral health.
Patients seeking gum disease treatment can now turn to the new, minimally invasive LANAP® (Laser-Assisted New Attachment Procedure). By using this new laser technology, a dentist for gum disease can remove diseased tissue without using a scalpel. The LANAP® gum disease treatment works by inserting a small fiber between the tooth and the gum and sending a pulsed laser light to remove all bacteria and infected tissue from the area. The laser is then used again to stimulate the bone and tissue in a way that encourages regrowth. By removing only the infected tissue, LANAP® gum disease treatment reduces bleeding and minimizes recovery time.
Do you experience sore or bleeding gums when brushing or flossing your teeth? Do you have severe pain when chewing food? These symptoms can be the warning signs of gum disease - gingivitis or periodontitis. It is important to address these conditions at the earliest stages to prevent future complications.
Bioclear is the latest and most innovative technique of dental restoration. It is a procedure that has evolved from the traditional use of amalgam fillings to contemporary composite restorations. It helps the dentist to give superior all-around treatment to traditional fillings.
