When you have a dental emergency, we’re here to help. Some injuries need to be seen in our office, while others can be cared for at home. Call Floss City Dental at (469) 929-9370 as soon as possible and we’ll tell you whether you need to come in, or walk you through easing the pain or injury at home.

Why you should call right away
Injuries aren’t always as minor as they look. Without an evaluation, you risk more serious problems later, especially in children. The sooner you call, the better the chance of avoiding complications. Your dental health is our first concern.
If you have severe swelling that affects your breathing or swallowing, or an injury beyond your teeth and mouth, call 911 or go to the nearest emergency room.
