Home > Blog > 3 Things to Do During a Dental Emergency
Any time you or a loved one has a dental emergency, you want to get relief right away. Our team at Johnson Dentistry is ready to help.
Even so, you may need to take a few steps on your own before you get to our office. Here are a few tips to help you.
1. Stop the Bleeding
Broken teeth, knocked-out teeth, and broken appliances all can cause bleeding. To get this under control, rinse your mouth and apply gauze until the bleeding stops.
2. Stop the Pain
Toothaches and dental injuries can both be disruptive to your daily activities. Often, taking an over-the-counter pain reliever, applying a cold pack, or both can alleviate the pain until you are able to get to our office.
3. Call US ASAP
Last but not least, contact us as soon as you are able. We want to end your pain and address your immediate needs. Then, we can find a solution to repair your oral health.

This is the best dental office I have ever been to. Very welcoming and clean office. The entire staff is so professional and I can tell they all have a genuine care for their patients. I will be referring all of my family and friends here. I give them 10 stars!
Johnson Dentistry is the best. Most importantly, he's a great dentist and only performs procedures if absolutely needed. We were new to the area and went to him for a second opinion and ended up switching to him. He also has a friendly, competent staff. I highly recommend them. Recently, I had what I thought might be a dental issue between my bi-annual visits and they worked me in very quickly. Fortunately, it was not a dental issue, but it gives me great confidence to know that they care and got me in so quickly, and if I have any issues in the future, I know they're there for me.
I am absolutely in love with my smile/teeth now! I can't stop looking at myself! I took comparison photos and wow! 🤩 I can’t express how much I love them and how much better I feel about myself, thanks to Dr. J! Dr. Johnson, thank you for everything! ❤️ His work is beautiful!
Thank you for making this such an easy process. Madison went above and beyond with all of my questions and concerns. I have now found my “home” for all dental care.
