Emergency dentistry
Dental emergencies can appear suddenly — a severe toothache, swelling that comes on quickly, a cracked tooth, or a filling or crown that breaks or falls out. At Altima College West Dental Centre, we do our best to see urgent cases as soon as possible. Our priority is keeping you comfortable, identifying the cause clearly, and addressing the immediate concern so you know exactly what comes next.
When to call
- Toothaches
- Fractured or chipped teeth
- Lost fillings or crowns
- Swelling or infection
- Trauma from accidents or sports
- Gum pain or soreness
What to expect
Your visit begins with a calm, supportive approach so you feel taken care of from the moment you arrive. We assess the area, take any necessary X-rays, and explain what’s happening in clear, simple terms. The first goal is to reduce discomfort and stabilize the situation. Once the urgent issue is under control, we outline any follow-up steps needed to restore your oral health fully.
