When a dental emergency strikes, Rockwest Dental Clinic is here to provide fast, reliable, and compassionate care. Our experienced team of emergency dentists in Mississauga is equipped to handle urgent dental issues and restore your oral health quickly and efficiently.
Fillings
For severe toothaches or broken teeth, restorative resin fillings may be necessary to preserve tooth integrity. Our skilled dentists perform this procedure promptly, alleviating pain and restoring your smile to optimal health and function.
Teeth Extractions
For abscessed or partially dislodged teeth, extraction may be required. Our emergency dentist performs the procedure safely and gently, offering guidance on replacement options like crowns or dental implants to restore your smile effectively.

Broken dentures can impact eating, speaking, and comfort. Whether due to wear and tear or an accident, our clinic provides quick, dependable repairs to restore function and help you return to your daily routine confidently.

What is a dental emergency?
A dental emergency is an oral health issue that requires urgent care to save a damaged tooth, control an infection or relieve severe pain.
How can I tell if a dental emergency is urgent?
Dental emergencies are typically urgent when there is swelling, severe pain and/or bleeding. Additional dental emergencies include knocked-out, chipped or broken teeth, crowns or fillings. Don’t continue to take over-the-counter medicine for a toothache longer than two days without contacting an emergency dentist. The toothache could be the result of a much larger issue that can escalate without immediate treatment.
How should I prepare for an emergency dentist appointment?
Gently rinse your mouth with water. Avoid drinking or eating. Take ibuprofen to ease pain and use a cold compress to ease swelling. Bring the dislodged tooth or crown with you if possible.
What will the emergency dentist do?
The emergency dentist at Rockwest Dental will ask you questions about what happened and how you feel. They will assess your dental/medical history including X-Rays. They will then treat your emergency with painkillers, antibiotics, fillings, restorative work like crowns or even an emergency oral surgery like a root canal or tooth extraction.
