Our Services

Emergency Dentist In Bel Air, MD

Emergency dentistry in Bel Air, MD providing fast, compassionate care for tooth pain, broken teeth, dental injuries, and urgent oral health concerns when you need immediate treatment.

What Emergency Dental Services Are Available?

We handle a wide range of urgent dental problems directly in our Bel Air office without referring you elsewhere.

Knocked Out or Chipped Tooth Treatment

If a permanent tooth has been completely knocked out, getting to our office within 30 to 60 minutes gives the best chance of saving it. Chipped or broken teeth can often be repaired the same day with dental bonding, a crown, or a veneer depending on the extent of the damage.

Severe Toothache and Dental Abscess Treatment

A severe toothache is frequently a sign of infection or nerve involvement. Dr. Englander will diagnose the cause and provide relief as quickly as possible. If an abscess is present, treating the infection promptly is critical. An untreated abscess can spread and lead to serious health complications.

Broken Dental Crown or Lost Filling Repair

A broken crown or lost filling leaves the underlying tooth exposed and vulnerable to pain, further decay, and breakage. Using our in-office CAD/CAM technology, Dr. Englander can often design and place a new permanent crown in the same visit, getting you back to normal the same day.

What Is Considered a Dental Emergency?

A dental emergency is any situation involving significant pain, physical trauma to the mouth, or a clear risk of permanent damage that cannot wait for a routine appointment. Common dental emergencies include a tooth that has been knocked out or broken, a severe or persistent toothache, a lost filling or crown, a dental abscess with swelling or fever, a cracked tooth, or soft tissue injuries to the gums, lips, or cheeks. If you are in significant pain or your mouth has experienced trauma, call us immediately at (410) 893-3613.

What Should I Do If I Have a Dental Emergency in Bel Air?

The first step is to call Elevated Smiles Dentistry at (410) 893-3613 and describe your situation. We will prioritize emergency patients and do everything possible to see you the same day. While you wait or travel to our office, here are basic steps for common situations.

Knocked-out tooth

Handle the tooth by the crown, not the root. Rinse it gently with clean water without scrubbing. Try to reinsert it into the socket if you can. If not, store it in a glass of milk or hold it between your cheek and gum. Call us immediately. Time matters greatly with knocked-out teeth.

Severe toothache

Rinse with warm salt water and take over-the-counter pain relief if needed. Do not place aspirin directly on the gum tissue. Call us right away.

Lost crown or filling

Keep the area clean. Do not try to glue a crown back with household adhesive. Call us and we will see you as soon as possible.

Does Elevated Smiles Dentistry Offer Same-Day Emergency Appointments?

Yes. We make every effort to see emergency patients the same day they call. When you contact us at (410) 893-3613, let us know you are experiencing a dental emergency. Our team will fit you in as quickly as possible, often within hours of your call. We understand that dental pain is not something you can wait out, and we take that seriously.

How Do I Reach an Emergency Dentist in Bel Air After Hours?

Call (410) 893-3613 and follow the prompts for after-hours emergency assistance. For situations involving significant bleeding, severe facial swelling, or difficulty breathing, go directly to your nearest emergency room. For all other dental emergencies, your first call should be to our office.
