Emergency Dentist in Long Island, NY
Contact our office without delay. Our Periodontists will advise you as to the best course of action. While some concerns can wait until the following day, some must be treated immediately. In cases of injury, the steps you take in the first few minutes can affect long-term outcomes.
For instance, a tooth that has been knocked out of its socket can be re-implanted if handled properly and addressed within the first 30 minutes to an hour after the trauma.
