Dental issues and accidents can happen at any time. Sometimes they require immediate treatment, and when that is the case, we are here to assist. If you are searching for emergency dentistry in Shreveport, LA, we are your solution.

There are several types of dental emergencies. Dental emergencies can consist of a sudden and severe toothache, an accident that chips or cracks a tooth, a damaged or loose restoration or a lost or damaged tooth. About 22 percent of people have experienced dental or oral pain in the last six months.
In general, any dental problem that needs immediate treatment to stop bleeding, alleviate severe pain, or save a tooth is considered an emergency. This consideration also applies to severe infections that can be life-threatening and constitute contacting your dental office.
Among the most common dental emergencies our dentists see are:
- Objects lodged between teeth
- Severe tooth pain or sensitivity
- Partially dislodged teeth
- Injuries to the gums or lips
- Broken or lost dental restorations
- Trauma to the jaws, gums, or teeth
