Real-life situations where immediate extractions may be necessary include:

|
| • |
Broken or Cracked Tooth - Traumatic injury or a large fracture exposing the nerve.
|
| • |
Knocked-Out or Dislodged Tooth - Teeth that cannot be saved may need removal.
|
| • |
Wisdom Tooth Complications - Impacted or infected wisdom teeth causing acute symptoms.

Many of these situations can be treated the same day depending on your condition. We’ll assess your case quickly and safely provide the care you need.
What Qualifies as a Dental Emergency Requiring Extraction
Not all dental discomfort requires extraction, but several warning signs indicate an emergency:
| • |
Severe Tooth Pain - Pain that interferes with sleep or daily activities.
|
| • |
Swelling in the Face or Gums - Can signal an underlying infection or abscess.
|
| • |
Fever or Pus - Signs of an infection spreading.
|
| • |
Visible Damage - A severely fractured or split tooth.
|
| • |
Pain While Biting or Chewing - May indicate root or nerve damage. |
Common causes of emergency extractions include deep cavities, dental trauma, failed root canals, and complications with wisdom teeth. Left untreated, these issues can become dangerous, affecting your overall health.

Common Reasons for Emergency Extractions
Understanding the root cause of your emergency can bring clarity and peace of mind. Emergency extractions are commonly required for:
| • |
Advanced Tooth Decay - Deep cavities that reach the pulp or root.
|
| • |
Dental Abscess - Infection around the tooth root causing facial swelling and pus.
|
| • |
Cracked or Fractured Tooth - Especially when the break reaches the gumline.
|
| • |
Impacted Wisdom Teeth - Trapped or misaligned teeth causing pain and infection.
|
| • |
Failed Root Canals - Infected or painful teeth after prior treatment. |
Prompt extraction in these cases helps prevent worsening infection, jawbone damage, or spread of bacteria into the bloodstream.
