Emergency Dentistry Options

In this video, Dr. Jack Booth explains how emergency dental visits are handled and what patients can expect when pain or infection needs prompt attention.

We do provide emergency dental care. The most common issue we see is an abscessed tooth, which is an infection in the bone. Patients usually come in with pain, swelling, or redness.
 
When you arrive, I’ll evaluate the area, usually with a scan, to see exactly what’s going on. From there, we either start with antibiotics and pain medication or, if appropriate, remove the tooth the same day. The decision depends on your comfort level, your anxiety, and the severity of the infection.
 
We handle a lot of extractions and are very comfortable managing these situations. The goal is always to address the pain, treat the infection, and solve the problem as efficiently as possible.
 
If you or someone you love is experiencing a dental emergency, contact Big Sky Dentures & Implants in Missoula, MT, right away so we can help relieve your pain and get you back to your life.

How an Implant Dentist Strengthens Your Tooth Replacement Plan

The term “implant dentist” is one people hear, but what does it truly mean in oral care? Across different fields, some professionals focus on a single essential area. A cardiologist tracks the heart’s rhythm and circulation with a practiced eye, noticing details most of us would miss. An arborist reads the health of a tree through its bark, branches, [...]

Teeth Whitening and Tooth Replacement: Bringing Balance to Your New Smile

Teeth whitening is usually viewed as a cosmetic touch-up, but it has a much broader reach in dentistry. You do not need a full set of natural teeth to benefit from a brighter shade, and it is not limited to those seeking small refinements. We often incorporate whitening into broader treatment plans such as full-mouth reconstruction or smile makeovers [...]

How Custom Mouthguards Protect Your Teeth

Many people have small, unconscious habits that show up only while they sleep. Talking is a common example. Some people mumble, others carry on full conversations without any awareness of it. These behaviors rarely register because the person experiencing them is not awake to notice. Unless someone points it out. Other nighttime habits are less subtle because they leave [...]

Dental Implant Financing 101: What To Expect From the Process

Many people are surprised to learn that mini dental implants often cost about half as much as traditional implants. The implants themselves are smaller, the placement process is more efficient, and the overall procedure usually requires fewer steps. That efficiency lowers the total cost. Still, a lower price does not magically turn a dental decision into pocket change. Even [...]
