Compassionate Urgent Care When You Need It Most

A dental emergency can happen when you least expect it, leaving you in pain and searching for immediate help. When a dental disaster strikes, finding a skilled emergency dentist in Beverly Hills is crucial. Dr. Kourosh Maddahi, DDS, offers prompt, compassionate, and expert urgent dental care to get you out of pain and restore your smile right away.

What Types of Emergencies Do We Treat?

Our office is a full-service dental office, and Dr. Maddahi specializes in cosmetic dentistry, smile transformations, and dental restorations. So if you have an emergency, you can be sure that your treatment here will result in complete restoration – or improvement – of your smile. Some of the things that you will want Dr. Maddahi to help you with on an emergency basis include:

Dental Abscesses

An abscess (painful swelling found on the gum, between the teeth, or in the tooth pulp) requires immediate treatment because it is an indication that there is a serious problem or infection in your mouth. The abscess itself is one of your body's defenses against infection, trying to keep an infection localized with the pus in a single area. Left untreated, an abscess can burst, allowing infection to spread. Dental abscesses can be found either on the gum tissue, between the teeth, or in the tooth's pulp. The latter is the most dangerous as it can kill the tooth.

The pain from an abscess can erupt quite suddenly and can affect your whole mouth rather than just the infected tooth. If you suspect you have an abscess you should call Dr. Maddahi immediately for an emergency appointment. Early treatment can prevent the need for an extraction as well as prevent the spread of infection.

Damaged, Cracked, or Split Teeth

Injuries to your teeth can happen in a flash, whether from a sports injury, an accidental fall, or simply biting down on something hard. While minor surface chips are rarely an emergency, a deeper structural break requires immediate professional attention to prevent infection and save the tooth.

Depending on the severity of the damage, your injury will likely fall into one of three categories:

Broken or Fractured Tooth

A severe break often leaves the tooth's sensitive nerves and blood supply completely exposed. If your tooth is bleeding and causing you sharp pain, it is critical to seek urgent care. Dr. Maddahi will examine the damage immediately to relieve your pain and protect the inner chamber of the tooth.

Cracked Tooth

A crack might not cause intense pain right away, but it should never be ignored. Left untreated, bacteria will seep into the crack and lead to a deep infection that requires much more extensive and costly treatment. Booking a rapid appointment allows us to seal the crack before bacteria can do further damage.

Split Tooth

A split tooth means the damage travels from the visible crown all the way down into the root. While a split root often requires an extraction to protect the surrounding bone and tissue, Dr. Maddahi will always assess the damage first to see if the tooth can be rescued with an emergency crown.

Painful or Missing Crowns or Implants

Maybe you've had some dental work done, and it just doesn't feel right. If you are in pain from an older filling, dental implant, bridge, or crown, your emergency could be just as serious as if you had broken one of your natural teeth.

If your work was done in a hurry or without using the proper tools or materials, you could be experiencing an infection, an allergic reaction, or other serious complications. You shouldn't be in pain from properly completed dental work.

Dr. Maddahi will be happy to see you and get you the help that you need, even if you have tried other dental assistance. Don't suffer needlessly. If you are in pain – whatever the reason – please call our office for an appointment.
