There are a few simple steps that will ensure you get the emergency dental care you need:

  • Step 1: Call Our Office. Once you are able, call our office right away so that our team can work quickly to schedule a time for you to come in. While waiting, follow the first-aid instructions we provide.
  • Step 2: See Dr. Osterhoudt for an Exam. Once in the treatment chair, we will take digital images of your smile before conducting a visual examination of your mouth.
  • Step 3: Allow Us to Review Our Findings. Based on the images and notes taken during your exam, Dr. Osterhoudt will review his findings and determine how best to treat your dental emergency.
  • Step 4: Undergo Professional Care. After reviewing the details with you, we’ll suggest immediate action be taken to address your injury or have you return if more extensive treatment is required. We’ll make sure you’re in no pain before leaving our office, though.
