That range matters when you are in pain and need the right care, fast.

What Counts as a Dental Emergency
Patients often wonder whether their situation is serious enough to call right away. When in doubt, the answer is yes. Waiting on a true dental emergency can mean the difference between saving and losing a tooth, or between a minor infection and a serious one. Common situations that warrant same-day care include:
- Severe or persistent toothache
- A knocked-out or partially dislodged tooth
- A cracked, fractured, or broken tooth
- A lost filling or dental crown
- A dental abscess or signs of oral infection, such as swelling, fever, or a bad taste in the mouth
- Soft tissue injuries to the gums, lips, tongue, or cheeks
- Jaw pain or swelling following an injury
Even if you are unsure whether your situation qualifies as an emergency, call us. Our team will assess your symptoms and advise you on the next steps, including how to manage discomfort until we can see you.

Same-Day Emergency Services at Citrus Smiles
Our Murphy offices are equipped with advanced dental technology, including digital X-rays and cone beam CT imaging, to evaluate the full scope of a dental emergency quickly and accurately. Dr. Aurora and Dr. Gupta handle a wide range of urgent dental situations in a single visit.
Emergency Toothache Treatment
Emergency Toothache TreatmentSevere tooth pain is one of the most common reasons patients visit our emergency line. Pain of this intensity usually signals an underlying issue such as deep decay, infection, a cracked tooth, or an exposed root. We diagnose the cause and provide immediate relief, followed by a treatment plan to address the source of the problem.
Knocked-Out Tooth
A knocked-out permanent tooth has the best chance of being saved if you act within 30 to 60 minutes. If possible, pick up the tooth by the crown, not the root, rinse it gently with clean water, and either place it back in the socket or store it in a small container of milk. Then call us immediately. Time is critical, and our team will do everything possible to reimplant and stabilize the tooth.
Cracked or Broken Tooth
Cracks range from minor surface fractures to breaks that extend into the root. Even a crack that does not cause immediate pain can worsen over time and lead to infection if left untreated. We assess the extent of the damage and recommend the appropriate restorative approach, whether that is bonding, a crown, or another solution.
Lost Filling or Crown
Lost Filling or CrownA filling or crown that falls out leaves the underlying tooth vulnerable to pain, sensitivity, and further damage. We see these cases the same day whenever possible and restore protection to the tooth quickly.
Dental Abscess
A dental abscess is a pocket of infection that can develop at the root of a tooth or in the surrounding gum tissue. Symptoms include throbbing pain, facial swelling, fever, and a foul taste in the mouth. An abscess is a serious condition that requires immediate treatment to prevent the infection from spreading. Do not wait to call if you suspect an abscess.

What to Do in a Dental Emergency
While you are on your way to any of our Texas dental offices, there are steps you can take to protect your tooth and manage discomfort.
- For a knocked-out tooth, preserve the tooth in milk or saliva and get to our office as fast as possible.
- For a toothache or swelling, apply a cold compress to the outside of the face in 20-minute intervals to reduce swelling and take an over-the-counter pain reliever as directed.
- For a cracked or broken tooth, rinse your mouth with warm water and avoid chewing on that side.
- For a lost crown or filling, temporary dental cement from a pharmacy can protect the tooth until your appointment.
These steps can help, but they are not a substitute for professional care. Call Citrus Smiles immediately and let our team guide you through the next steps in real time.
Why Prompt Treatment Makes All the Difference
A dental emergency that is treated quickly is almost always resolved more simply and at lower cost than one that is delayed. An infected tooth caught early may be saved with a root canal. Left for days or weeks, that same infection may require extraction and more extensive treatment. A knocked-out tooth reimplanted within the hour stands a real chance of survival. The same tooth after several hours has a much lower likelihood of being preserved.
Patients throughout Murphy, Wylie, and neighboring communities like Allen and Plano know that Citrus Smiles Dental Studio is the place to call when something goes wrong. We are built for this kind of rapid-response care, and our team does not take lightly the trust you place in us when you are in pain.
Frequently Asked Questions
How quickly can I be seen for a dental emergency?
We make every effort to see emergency patients the same day they call, whether that’s in the evening or on the weekend. If we cannot bring you in immediately, we will provide guidance on managing your symptoms until your appointment. Contact us as early in the day as possible for the fastest scheduling.
What if my child has a dental emergency?
We treat dental emergencies for patients of all ages, including children. Knocked-out baby teeth are handled differently from permanent teeth, and our doctors will advise you on the right course of action based on your child’s age and the specifics of the situation. Call us right away and describe what happened.
Is a broken tooth always a dental emergency?
It depends on the severity. A small chip that does not cause pain may not require same-day care, though it should still be addressed promptly to prevent further damage. A larger break, especially one that causes pain or sensitivity, should be treated as an emergency. When in doubt, call us and describe the situation so we can help you determine the urgency.
Can a dental emergency be prevented?
Not always, but some common causes are avoidable. Wearing a mouthguard during contact sports significantly reduces the risk of tooth fractures and knockouts. Avoiding using your teeth to open packaging reduces the risk of cracking. Staying current on routine dental care allows our team to catch weakened or compromised teeth before they break under pressure.
