Emergency Dental Dental emergencies such as a cracked, broken or knocked out tooth can be very serious and often need immediate care. Putting it off can increase the chance of permanent damage occurring (along with a potentially higher cost of treatment in the long run).
Knowing which injuries qualify as a dental emergency and need immediate care is important to ensure the safety of your family’s teeth and their well-being. Knowing what doesn’t qualify as a dental emergency is just as important so you don’t waste your time driving in the middle of the night for something that could have waited until the morning.
If you have the misfortune of a dental emergency result of biting a hard piece of food, falling down, or suffering from a sports-related injury, give us a call. Same-day appointments are available.
Dr Malkinson and the team of providers at South Melbourne Dental Practice are highly experienced in all forms of dental care. Together with their highly experienced and caring staff, they’ll accommodate your every need and make you feel right at home during every visit.
If you find yourself experiencing a dental emergency, contact his office immediately and schedule an appointment. If your emergency is outside of normal office hours, you can call his 24-hour service or use our online appointment book to schedule an emergency visit.
During your initial consultation, he will carefully listen to all your needs and work with you to devise the best plan for your situation. We look forward to seeing you soon.
Accidents don’t wait for you to book an appointment, they can occur at any time of the day or night. Some injuries might require immediate treatment, while others might be minor enough to wait for regular business hours. If you are experiencing a dental issue or emergency, call us to discuss your options and see if we can get you in right away for treatment. Call Dr Malkinsons’s clinic immediately and schedule an appointment with his staff.
