FAQs
Should I go to the ER or an oral surgeon?
If your injury is severe, with heavy bleeding, breathing difficulty, or suspected fractures, go to the ER first for immediate stabilization. We can then follow up with surgical treatment as needed.
How quickly should I seek facial trauma treatment?
Right away. Prompt care can reduce the added risk of complications and improve healing. Acting fast can also increase the chance of restoring full function.
Can knocked-out teeth be saved?
Often, yes, especially if you see a dentist or oral surgeon within an hour of injury. Keep the tooth moist and be sure to avoid touching the root while you wait to see the surgeon.
Will insurance cover treatment?
Many trauma-related procedures are covered. Our team can help you to verify your coverage benefits and claim processing.
