What should you expect when receiving dental emergency treatment?
To begin, we will inquire about the problem you are currently experiencing to assess whether an x-ray is required. If it is deemed necessary, we will promptly and effortlessly proceed with the x-ray process. By analyzing the x-ray and examining your teeth, we can identify the underlying cause of the issue. Subsequently, we will administer the suitable treatment during your visit to prevent any additional deterioration.
