Having a dentist who can offer emergency dental services is always a good thing. It's always best to be prepared in the case of an emergency, especially one that involves your health. Many dental emergencies can be treated but this is reliant on speed. The quicker you see a dentist with your problem the more likely it is that the dentist will be able to successfully treat the problem. It is also important as a patient to know what to do to help aid the recovery process.

        Many general dentists offer emergency dental services. There are generally only a few situations in which people have a real dental emergency. A chipped tooth or a knocked out tooth (avulsed tooth) are common problems which require an emergency dentist. Toothache pain is another common problem because people will ignore the pain or take pain relievers until the problems has grown so bad that they absolutely have to visit the dentist.

        Many dentists offer emergency dental services during their work day. Unfortunately, accidents that require immediate attention don't always happen during the normal work day and this can leave many people in a bad situation. The Atlanta Dental Group PC offers extended dental care hours in order to help accommodate emergency patients. Unfortunately none of our dentists are 24 hour emergency dentists.

        If you have a dental emergency and need emergency dental care, you are welcome to call Atlanta Emergency Dentist, Dr. Mark Allan Padolsky. If he is not available, one of the other Atlanta Dental Group PC dentists will often be able to see you. Be sure to inform the receptionist when you call that you are in pain or that the situation is an emergency. Call 404-874-7428 to schedule your emergency dental visit.
