In this video, Dr. Gloria Stingley explains how dental emergencies are handled and when immediate care may be available.
What is the purpose of a dental office if it cannot treat a true emergency? In our office, we have scheduled patients, and our patients understand when we have a true emergency. We are human, and we care about people, so yes, we will take care of emergency cases. However, there are some situations that people consider emergencies when they truly are not. We will still see those patients if our schedule allows, but they may have to wait a while before being seen. Yes, we do accept emergencies and walk-ins.
If you or someone you love is experiencing a dental emergency, contact Carter-Rockbridge General Dentistry today so we can assess your situation and get you out of pain.
