Your Antigo Emergency Dentists

It’s no fun when a painful dental injury disrupts your life. But at Progressive Dental, we’re prepared to guide you through even the most unexpected dental needs – day or night. If you experience an abscess, broken crown, extreme sensitivity, chronic pain, or any other issues that can plague your teeth, we are here to help!

What’s a Dental Injury or Emergency?

You May Not Know Until it Happens to You

  • Broken, cracked or chipped tooth: Stop bleeding by applying gauze and pressure.
  • Knocked out tooth: Place your tooth back in its socket, or store it in milk or your own saliva.
  • Loose tooth: Avoid touching or playing with it, or use a sterile gauze to hold it in place.
  • Get out of pain: Ice on the outside of the mouth will help numb the pain.
  • Over-the-counter medication: Ibuprofen and Acetaminophen can help reduce the swelling.
  • No matter what type of dental emergency, you should see a dentist within 12 hours of the injury!

What to Expect

Our first concern in any dental emergency is our patient’s safety and comfort. After carefully evaluating your situation, our skilled professionals will do their best to alleviate any pain or discomfort. From there, we will treat your condition and make sure you understand what’s happening every step of the way. In some situations, providing the best care possible means referring you to a specialist. If that’s the case, we will do our best to relieve your pain until you get the treatment you need.
