Emergency Dental Care Available in Nashville
Dental emergencies can have many causes. Dr. Fedler can examine the affected area, identify the likely problem, and explain whether treatment can be completed at Dental Faith or requires another provider.
Tooth pain may be caused by decay, a cracked tooth, infection, gum problems, or another dental concern. Dr. Fedler can examine the area and recommend the next step.
A cracked or broken tooth needs attention quickly. Leaving it untreated can lead to infection or further damage. We assess the break and repair it the same visit when possible.
A knocked-out permanent tooth requires immediate attention. Hold the tooth by the crown rather than the root. If it is dirty, gently rinse it without scrubbing. Place it back in the socket if possible, or keep it moist in milk, and call a dentist immediately.
Severe decay or infection inside a tooth may require root canal treatment. Dental Faith can examine the tooth, provide care when appropriate, and coordinate treatment with a root canal provider when needed.
A lost filling or crown can leave the tooth sensitive or vulnerable to additional damage. Dr. Fedler can examine the tooth and explain whether the restoration can be replaced or whether another treatment is needed.

Pick the tooth up by the crown, not the root. Rinse it gently without scrubbing. Keep it moist by placing it back in the socket if possible or in a small container of milk. Call us immediately and come in right away.
As soon as possible. Severe or persistent tooth pain often signals an infection or nerve damage. The longer it goes untreated, the worse and more expensive it becomes to fix.
Yes. We repair and replace lost crowns and fillings during same-day emergency visits whenever the situation allows.
Untreated gum disease progresses from gingivitis to periodontitis. This can lead to bone loss, gum recession, loose teeth, and eventually tooth loss. Early treatment prevents all of this.
The procedure is done with local anesthesia so you should not feel pain during the visit. Some tenderness afterward is normal and fades within a few days. Most patients find it far more comfortable than they expected.
Call Dr. M. Paula Fedler and her dental staff to book your emergency dental appointment.
