Common dental emergencies we treat

  • Severe toothache or throbbing pain
  • Chipped, cracked or broken teeth
  • Lost fillings or crowns
  • Swelling, abscess or a bad taste from a tooth
  • Pain or bleeding after a dental procedure elsewhere

Go to the ER if…

Call 911 or go to the emergency room for facial swelling that spreads toward the eye or neck, difficulty breathing or swallowing, uncontrolled bleeding or a high fever. For everything else, call us at 302-984-3300.

What happens at your visit

We start with a focused exam and X-rays to find the source. Depending on what we find, we may smooth and bond a chipped tooth, re-cement or replace a crown, start a root canal to relieve an infected nerve, or gently remove a tooth that can't be saved. One patient wrote that Dr. Hina "got me out of pain and took care of my issues promptly."

“I was a patient of Dr. Herb Casalena for over 25 years. I recently visited his office and met his replacement and could not have been happier or more impressed. She got me out of pain and took care of my issues promptly. I am certain that Herb would be very proud of her and happy that she is here to treat his patients.”
