Is Your Pet Experiencing a Dental Emergency?
Please call us immediately for information if you find any of these emergencies. In many cases, our dental staff will try to accommodate same day/week treatment of emergency cases. Freshly fractured teeth can also sometimes be saved if treated within 24-48 hours of pulp exposure / fracture.
The following are considered pet dental emergencies that should be seen by us immediately for care:
- Severe pain causing inability to eat
- Inability to open, close or use mouth
- A broken jaw
- Teeth that are displaced from their sockets
- Objects stuck in the mouth or throat
