Immediate Steps to Take
For a Knocked-Out Tooth
- Handle with Care: Touch the crown only, avoiding the root.
- Rinse Gently: Use milk or saline solution, not water.
- Reinsert if Possible: Place the tooth back into its socket and hold it in place.
- Contact an Endodontist Immediately: Most endodontists offer same-day appointments. EOI NYC is a major endodontic practice in NYC.
For Severe Pain or Swelling
- Rinse with warm salt water.
- Apply a cold compress to reduce inflammation.
- Take over-the-counter pain relievers, avoiding aspirin if there’s bleeding.
For Cracked or Broken Teeth
- Rinse the area with warm water.
- Avoid chewing on the affected side.

Know Where to Go
- Non-Life-Threatening Emergencies: Contact an endodontist for same-day care.

Follow-Up Care Matters
- Treatments like root canals, tooth stabilization, or dental implants can restore function and health after emergencies.
- Comprehensive care ensures that even complex cases are managed effectively.
Recognizing a Dental Emergency
While teeth are naturally durable, accidents and unforeseen circumstances can happen. Learning to recognize a dental emergency is the first step toward effective treatment.
Common Risk Factors
- Accidents during sports activities like basketball, racquetball, or hockey.
- Vehicle accidents involving cars, motorcycles, or bicycles.
- Trips and falls on uneven terrain.
- Chewing hard objects like ice or bones.
- Using teeth as tools to open packages or bottles.
Proactive Tip: Wearing a custom-fitted mouthguard during sports can reduce the risk of dental trauma.
Signs You Need Emergency Dental Care
Certain symptoms require immediate attention. Here’s what to look out for:
- Tooth Loss or Looseness
- A tooth that falls out completely or suddenly feels loose in its socket is an emergency.
- Severe Pain
- Persistent, sharp, or throbbing pain often signals infection or trauma to the dental pulp.
- Infection Indicators
- Swelling, redness, pus drainage, or a fever are potential signs of a serious infection.
- Bleeding
- Abnormal bleeding that doesn’t subside may indicate trauma or infection.
- Trauma
- Chipped, cracked, or knocked-out teeth from accidents require urgent evaluation and care.
- Unusual Sensations
- Burning, tingling, or hypersensitivity to temperature may indicate nerve damage.
Dr. Dayani is one of the first dentists I’ve been to who actually takes great care and time to talk about his diagnosis and the available treatments. He is very clear and thorough… He arrived at a diagnosis of an atypical condition quickly and accurately; and, speaking from my experience, I would have great confidence in any further recommendations or treatments by his office… After spending a surprisingly long time examining my teeth and explaining the x-rays, he said that the evidence is inconclusive. Odds are that I will need a root canal, he said, but just in case I don’t, he suggested that we wait and see rather than just dive into an expensive procedure. In short, he was thorough and knowledgeable in his diagnosis, communicative with me, and ethical in his conclusions. Read more

Last week I went to Dr. Dayani thinking I’d need root canal work. After spending a surprisingly long time examining my teeth and explaining the x-rays, he said that the evidence is inconclusive.

In short, he was thorough and knowledgeable in his diagnosis, communicative with me, and ethical in his conclusions. You can’t beat that.

FAQs About Dental Emergencies
Symptoms
How do I know if my tooth pain is an emergency?
Severe, persistent tooth pain that disrupts your daily life is often a sign of a dental emergency. Symptoms like swelling, fever, or pain that worsens with time indicate the need for urgent care. For expert diagnosis and relief, visit an endodontist near you. EOI NYC accepts emergency patients and walk-ins. Contact us for same-day care.
What are the signs of a dental infection?
Common signs include swelling in the gums or face, persistent pain, sensitivity to temperature, and pus or drainage near the affected tooth. If you experience fever or difficulty swallowing, seek immediate care, as infections can spread quickly. EOI NYC offers emergency treatment for infections—schedule an appointment today.
Immediate Action
What should I do if I break a tooth?
Rinse your mouth with warm water to clean the area, and if there’s bleeding, apply gentle pressure with gauze. Collect any broken fragments and avoid chewing on the affected side. Contact an endodontist for immediate care. EOI NYC specializes in emergency tooth repair, including same-day restorations.
How can I manage dental pain at home before my appointment?
Use warm saltwater rinses to soothe the area and apply a cold compress to reduce swelling. Over-the-counter pain relievers, such as acetaminophen, can help. Avoid aspirin if bleeding is present. Remember, pain is a warning sign—visit an endodontist promptly for proper treatment. EOI NYC offers same-day appointments to address dental pain.
Treatment
Can an emergency dentist save a knocked-out tooth?
Yes, but acting quickly is essential. Pick up the tooth by the crown, rinse it gently with milk or saline, and try reinserting it into the socket. If reinsertion isn’t possible, store the tooth in milk and see an endodontist immediately. Teeth are often salvageable if treated within 30 minutes. EOI NYC provides expert emergency care for knocked-out teeth.
Can I get a same-day crown for a broken tooth?
Many dental practices now offer advanced 3D milling technology to craft durable crowns in a single visit. This eliminates the need for temporary restorations and weeks of waiting for lab results. At EOI NYC, we specialize in same-day crowns, helping you leave with a fully restored tooth.
Logistics
Does an endodontist accept walk-ins for emergencies?
Yes, most endodontists welcome walk-ins for urgent dental care. They are specialists equipped to handle complex emergencies, including pain, infections, and trauma. EOI NYC accepts emergency walk-ins and same-day appointments—contact us now for immediate care.
What should I bring to my emergency dental appointment?
Bring a photo ID, insurance information (if applicable), and a list of any medications you’re taking. If you have previous X-rays or medical records, those can be helpful. For injuries involving a knocked-out tooth or broken fragments, bring them stored in milk or a clean container. EOI NYC ensures seamless and efficient emergency visits.
If you’re experiencing a dental emergency, don’t wait. Visit an endodontist near you for immediate care. EOI NYC, a trusted endodontic practice, offers same-day appointments, advanced care, and walk-in availability. Contact us today for prompt relief.

My mom came in with dental pain from an infected implant. Dr.Dayani was able to quickly get my mom a same day appointment at another office to get the implant removed and area taken care of! He was thorough and caring! Amazing office to work with!
I cannot speak highly enough if Dr. Dayani and his staff. I went to my dentist today and he referred me to Dr Dayani for a root canal. I went to Dr Dayani same day and he was able to work me into his schedule. I was TERRIFIED. I had a very traumatic experience in the past and I’m not in the greatest mental health condition lately, I was sobbing in Dr Dayani’s chair, just so irrationally petrified…. he was SO. KIND. He talked to me the way I needed a doctor to talk to me and the way I needed him to deal with me in that moment. Not only did he emotionally and mentally comfort me before the root canal, he did an amazing job!! I felt no pain! He was so careful to ensure I was not in pain or discomfort, he worked as carefully but also quickly.. I’m almost in tears typing this because I am just so relieved that it’s over. Dr Dayani and staff, I dont know how many girls you get in there crying a day but today I was that lady- you have my gratitude, thank you all so much for helping me today and for being so kind and professional and also humane. I just cant thank you enough, the only way I know to show my gratitude is to spread the word of the amazing endodontist office that changed the way I look at dentistry.
Dr Dayani was absolutely fantastic! I called in the morning and was able to be seen the same day. The procidure was expertly done and I am left feeling well taken care of and relieved.
