A dental emergency is any issue that causes pain, bleeding, swelling, or damage to your teeth, gums, or jaw—and it usually means you should see a dentist as soon as possible. Common dental emergencies include severe toothaches, knocked-out or broken teeth, signs of infection (like swelling or pus), lost fillings or crowns, or trauma to the mouth. If you're not sure, err on the side of caution—early treatment can prevent serious complications.
Ora accepts most major PPO dental insurances like Aetna, Cigna, Delta Dental, and Guardian. However, we unfortunately do not accept Medicaid, Healthplex, or HMO plans.

Not everything qualifies as a dental emergency. Some issues, like a chipped tooth without pain or blood, may seem like a dental emergency but do not necessarily require same-day urgent care. Depending on your issue, you may be able to wait a few days before seeing a dentist. However, for other issues like a broken or lost tooth, you should seek out emergency care.
The best way to tell if you require emergency dental care is to call our emergency dental hotline.
Some issues don't require urgent care. However, if you call our emergency dental hotline and we do recommend care, it is best to schedule a visit as soon as possible.
Delaying care can make things worse. What starts as a minor toothache or broken crown can turn into an infection, or abscess, or even lead to tooth loss if left untreated. Dental infections can also impact your overall health. If you're in pain, swollen, or can't eat or sleep comfortably, it's time to come in. Our job is to help you feel better quickly and safely.
Our team of dentists and oral surgeons are prepared for almost any dental emergency. We cover things like tooth pain, toothaches, chipped tooth, broken tooth, knocked out tooth, extractions, implants, crowns, cavities, loose fillings, and more!

There are many different causes of tooth pain. Depending on the cause, you may require immediate emergency care.
Some toothaches are caused by what is called an abscess. An abscess is an infection of the tooth resulting in pus either at the gums or base of the tooth. Abscesses can result in severe tooth pain which may even radiate to the ear and neck. With the case of an abscess, you will require emergency dental care. Failing to seek out urgent care can result in infection spread and fever. To treat an abscess, a dentist would drain the site of infection and prescribe antibiotics.
Some toothaches are caused by cracked teeth. Cracked teeth can appear as hairline cracks. Without attention, cracked teeth can progress into larger cracks which may result in potential tooth loss.
