Receive Fast Relief During Dental Emergencies in Bloomington

It is better to get professional assistance ASAP when you need emergency dental care. Some emergency situations, such as a tooth infection, can turn worse quickly and put your oral health at risk. Fortunately, you can often get same-day care for dental emergencies in Bloomington, MN. Our team will do all we can to help, including:

  • Offering light sedation to calm your nerves
  • Alleviating your pain or discomfort
  • Providing restorative care to repair your smile
  • Maintaining your oral health and healthy smile with follow-up care

Don’t hesitate to call 952-679-1365 if you need emergency dental care at Weddell Dental. We know that emergencies don’t go by office hours, which is why Dr. Weddell’s cell number is available on our answering machine.

You’ll find our office at 8900 Penn Ave. S., Ste. 211. Also, our Dental Savings Plan (available for patients who don’t have dental insurance) covers the cost of one emergency dental exam annually.

Try to Prevent Dental Problems but Be Prepared When They Happen

Your teeth should not cause you pain. If you are having dental pain, it’s likely a reason to see emergency care. Call us if a tooth falls out, you have a tooth knocked out, you break or crack a tooth, or experience a painful toothache. We offer many ways to help, including root canals, dental crowns, tooth removal, and more.

You can’t anticipate when a dental injury will occur, but you can reduce your risk of dental problems with preventive care at our general dental practice. Here are some simple things you can do:

  • Dental Cleanings and Exams – Visit us twice a year for professional cleanings to remove plaque and tartar and thorough exams to identify any changes in your oral health.
  • Athletic Mouthguards – Anyone who plays sports should wear a mouthguard during practices and competitions. Custom mouthguards from your dentist provide the best protection for your smile.
  • Restorative Dentistry – If you know that you have a problem, treat it as soon as possible with restorative care. This can spare you painful consequences and more invasive treatments down the road.

Call Weddell Dental at 952-679-1365 right away when you have dental emergencies in Bloomington, MN. For non-emergency care, you can make an appointment online.

Common Questions About Dental Emergencies

Can you help with my dental emergency?

You can give us a call for any dental emergencies you’re facing. Our team will get you in the same day if at all possible, or at least by the following day. Once you’re in the office, we’ll stop your dental pain and help you relax. We also offer two types of light sedation that can eliminate any anxiety you might be feeling about your care.

Can I go to the ER for dental emergencies?

Yes, you can. However, since they have no dentists on staff, you won’t be able to get a root canal, extraction, or other dental procedure. If you have an infection, they can provide antibiotics to keep it under control until you can see us. They may also be able to prescribe pain-relieving medication that is stronger than an over-the-counter medication.

What are common dental emergencies?

There are few emergencies that Dr. Weddell hasn’t seen in his 30-plus years of practice. Some are certainly more common than others! Emergencies that we see fairly often include toothaches caused by a cavity or an infection, cracked teeth, broken teeth, and broken dental restorations. In most cases, we’re able to resolve all these situations with restorative dentistry.
