Same-Day Appointments
Dental Emergencies in Key West
Many dental emergencies are obvious, like a knocked-out tooth or an injury that causes excessive bleeding. However, even issues that seem more minor can still be considered dental emergencies, such as a persistent toothache or periodontal disease. If you’re experiencing oral pain that you can’t treat on your own, this is a dental emergency and you should call Southernmost Smiles right away for dental treatment. We offer same-day appointments and immediate care for patients in pain!

Keep Your Smile Safe
What To Do In A Dental Emergency
- Contact Dr. Weber for an emergency appointment right away! Proper emergency care is critical for saving your tooth.
- Next, recover your missing tooth or dental work (if applicable). Your tooth should be rinsed gently with warm water and replaced in the socket, or placed in a bag of cold milk.
- Address any bleeding, if present. You can use a clean cotton ball or gauze to absorb blood, which should mostly stop within an hour.
- You can take naproxen (Aleve) or acetaminophen (Tylenol) to help control your pain and discomfort, and apply an ice pack externally to reduce swelling.
- After you’ve taken the proper steps to treat bleeding and pain, make sure you come to Southernmost Smiles as soon as you can for professional treatment.
Dental Care When You Need It Most
Same-Day Appointments Available
We always have same-day appointments available for our patients. If you need emergency care, we ask that you give us a call at (305) 294-9999 to let us know that you’re coming in. This gives us time to prepare for your arrival and assess your situation over the phone to determine what your treatment options may be. However, we know this isn’t always possible. Feel free to walk into our office at 1710 N Roosevelt Boulevard, Key West, FL, and we’ll do our best to see you as soon as possible.

Get Relief From Pain & Discomfort
Minimally Inhaled Sedation
If you’re in pain due to your dental emergency or you’re nervous about coming to see Dr. Weber for treatment, we have sedation options to make your visit easier. We offer sedation with “laughing gas”, which will make you feel euphoric and keep you feeling safe and comfortable. Best of all, its effects wear off after only about 5 minutes, so you can drive yourself home and get back to your day-to-day life right away.
