Orthodontic Emergency

What is an Orthodontic Emergency?


A blow to the face or jaws causing loose or broken teeth
and soft tissue trauma is a medical emergency and
should be seen immediately in an emergency room or by
their general dentist. Our office is not equipped to handle
these situations and we will only want to make
“repairs” to orthodontic appliances after the true
emergencies are treated.
Fortunately orthodontic emergencies are very rare.
Loose bands, brackets or wires are only an emergency if
they are causing excessive discomfort or swelling which
cannot be relieved with wax or other home cures.
Should you have an orthodontic emergency–
please contact us to schedule an appointment
for us to make you comfortable.
