A tooth can go a few days with a missing filling, but we typically do not recommend waiting longer. If your tooth is hurting, sensitive, sharp, cutting your lip or tongue we do want to see you as soon as possible. If the tooth lost a filling or crown but is not hurting or bothering you, we can see you within a few days to a week.
If you have lost a crown or filling, call our office. We are here to answer your questions and determine the most appropriate time and treatment.
We know there is a lot of uncertainty during this time and we want to reassure you that we are here for you. Our dental office will remain open during the state shutdown and we will be here to take care of your dental needs.
Our office will need to modify hours and scheduling during this time in order to implement the extra precautions and safeguards needed to keep staff and patients safe. If your appointment will be affected by these changes, we will be calling you to reschedule your appointment.
As always, please contact us with any questions or concerns that you may have.
