We will refer you to an appropriate specialist if you are experiencing certain dental complexities outside of our treatment areas.

Treating Dental Problems for Lifelong Oral Health
Addressing dental emergencies when they arise can benefit your long-term oral health. Some problems – such as fractured teeth – will worsen if left untreated. Infections may develop and progress, and eventually the damage may require more extensive treatment than if the problem was addressed immediately.
