What is Emergency Dentistry?

If you have a chipped or broken tooth, it’s important to call our emergency dentists right away. They can provide the treatments necessary to address the severity of your injury. If it’s a minor chip or cracks, North End Dental may polish the tooth to smooth the surface. However, if your tooth is cracked all the way through, it may require a dental crown or filling to repair the damage.

Jaw Fracture or Dislocation

A jaw fracture or dislocation can occur after trauma from an accident or sports injury.

In severe cases, the jaw may be broken or dislocated, causing extreme pain. If you have injured your jaw, avoid applying pressure on it. If it is broken, you may need to wear a splint. If the jaw is dislocated, you will need to get it repositioned as soon as possible.

Objects Caught Between Teeth

Sometimes, patients cannot remove an object that is stuck in between their teeth. This can cause significant pain. You could attempt to remove the object with dental floss; but if that doesn’t work, you should go to North End Dental for help. While a dental appointment might be unwanted, our emergency dentistry services in Colorado Springs, CO can usually remove the object and then provide pain management tips to help the patient manage any pain.

Joni Mattice OH-Milford
Best dentist office ever!!! Competent, experienced dentists and assistants. And the office staff makes you feel like family. I recommend to EVERYONE!
Ashley Paramore
Dr. Umphlett is a godsend. Her bedside manner is amazing, she’s so gentle and is sure to check on you through your entire visit. Going to the dentist is not my favorite thing but North End makes it SO easy and accommodating. I’d recommend these guys to anyone!
Jena Foster
Ive been suffering with dental anxiety. I want to say, everyone, from the front to the Dr, to the billing agent were transparent, and Extremely nice and caring. After some bad experiences with Comfort Dental and some Dr on Zoc-Doc, I think I’ve found my dental home. They have a plan and we are starting soon.
Tom Tennant
Always a pleasure. The ladies up front are always very welcoming and I always feel well taken care of ! Dr. Hill listens to my concerns and addresses them clearly. I highly recommend this practice.
Roberta Lacey
Dr Moore and Ally are great. I have been seeing Dr Moore for many years. Does a fantastic job keeping my teeth in great shape with all my crowns
Tim
Dr Moore installed a crown on my new “experimental” dental implant in about 1991. Shortly after that, I moved away from the Colorado Springs area. Recently, (April 2024) this crown began feeling a bit loose. Since the crown and implant were so old (obsolete?), my local dentist was unsure of the hardware configuration, and dental records from that long ago were seeming unavailable. I was able to locate Dr. Moore and I was very happy and relieved to find that he was still practicing. However, he was no longer at the same office and he also did not have the “ancient” dental records available. I made an appointment with Dr. Moore, traveled to Colorado Springs, and upon looking at the crown, he quickly identified the hardware and addressed the problem. There’s nobody that I would trust more than Dr. Moore to care for this dental implant and crown.
Cody Schmid
I recently had all 4 wisdom teeth removed by Dr. Hill. It’s difficult not to be nervous about such a procedure but having people who are so experienced really helps. The shots were as painless as they could be, the extraction process took maybe 20 minutes for all 4, and the price was half what I was expecting. Great place to go, happy I picked them and very pleased with how everything turned out.
Linda Whitney
Great place and it’s cute. They care about their patients and do awesome work. Vibrating heated dental chairs are the best and even a heated toilet seat. WOW
