Emergencies

In case of true emergencies such as swelling, excessive bleeding or pain and trauma to the teeth and face, we want to see you as soon as possible. You may be referred to another specialist or your general dentist.

In case of a loose brace, broken wire, sharp wire or broken appliance, call the office during office hours to schedule a time to repair the problem. In many cases, the problem can be solved over the telephone or taken care of at the next scheduled visit. Problems after normal hours can be taken care of by calling Dr. Thomas or Dr. Leitner.

When both doctors are out of town, someone will be on call to handle your emergencies if it becomes necessary.
