When to seek urgent dental care

Not every dental problem needs emergency treatment, but some situations benefit from quick attention to reduce pain and protect tooth structure. Early intervention can preserve a tooth and lower the chance of more extensive treatment later.

If you think you have an urgent concern, contact us right away so we can advise next steps and arrange a prompt visit when appropriate.

  • Severe or worsening toothache
  • Chipped, cracked or broken tooth
  • A tooth that has been knocked out
  • Lost or damaged filling or crown
  • Swelling, persistent bleeding or signs of infection

How we help at Belman Dental Centre

A general dentist at our practice performs urgent assessments and immediate treatment when possible. Our team uses digital X‑rays and the iTero Element 3D scanner as needed to evaluate damage and plan care. Nitrous oxide and oral sedation are available to help make treatment more comfortable for suitable patients.

Dr. Noah Belman graduated from the University of Toronto Faculty of Dentistry and completed postgraduate training with the Misch Implant Institute, The Pankey Institute and Spear Education. For complex cases that require specialist care we will discuss referral options so you receive the most appropriate treatment.

  • Pain relief and infection control
  • Temporary or definitive restorations (fillings, crowns)
  • Root canal therapy when indicated
  • Tooth replantation or stabilisation where feasible
  • Extractions and written aftercare instructions

Good to Know

Emergency Dental Care FAQs

What counts as a dental emergency?

A dental emergency commonly includes severe pain, a tooth that has been knocked out, a broken tooth causing pain or sharp edges, significant swelling, or uncontrolled bleeding. If you're unsure, call 1-416-486-1136 and we will advise whether you should come in for an assessment.

My tooth was knocked out — what should I do before I get to the office?

Try to remain calm. Handle the tooth by the crown (avoid touching the root), rinse gently if dirty (do not scrub), and keep it moist — either place it back in the socket only if the person is comfortable, or store it in milk or saliva. Call us immediately for instructions and to arrange urgent care.

Do you accept walk-ins for dental emergencies?

We aim to accommodate urgent needs and often reserve time for same‑day appointments, but calling first at 1-416-486-1136 helps us prioritise care and minimise waiting. If you arrive without an appointment we will do our best to help you as soon as possible.

Will you use sedation or numbing for emergency treatment?

Local anaesthetic is routinely used to control pain during emergency treatment. Nitrous oxide and oral sedation are available for those who need extra comfort. A general dentist will review your medical history and suitability before recommending sedation options.

Will my emergency be treated here or referred to a specialist?

Most urgent issues are managed by our general dentist at Belman Dental Centre. If your case requires specialist care — for example complex oral surgery or advanced endodontics — we will discuss referral options and coordinate next steps to ensure you receive appropriate treatment.
