Urgent Dental Care
Pain relief first. Then a real plan.
Call first. If it is tooth pain, swelling, a broken tooth, a failed crown, or a front-tooth emergency, Astra Dental can help you get out of pain, understand the cause, and know what needs to happen next.
Emergency call line 203-551-9090
Tell us what happened, how bad the pain is, whether there is swelling, and whether you are trying to get back to work, travel, or an event.
When a tooth can be saved, we move fast.
Lingering cold pain, biting pain, swelling, or pain that wakes you up can point toward a nerve problem. Astra can evaluate root canal treatment and the crown plan that protects the tooth.
When a tooth cannot be saved, it can still be handled well.
Astra Dental is strong at emergency extractions, surgical judgment, and the next-step conversation after the pain is controlled, including healing, bone support, and replacement options.
Broken front teeth and crowns may not need weeks of waiting.
Lost veneers, chipped front teeth, failed crowns, implant temporaries, and many porcelain crowns can often be stabilized, repaired, or made in-house when the case allows.
Real Urgent Tooth Fixes
Real cases, faster answers, and an in-house lab when it helps.
Call about tooth pain, a broken tooth, or a lost crown. We will check appointment availability and evaluate what needs attention first. Our in-house lab can help with some repairs and restorations; the timing and treatment depend on your exam.

Patient Guide
Understand the problem before choosing treatment.
An urgent examination checks the affected tooth, gum tissue, bite, and existing dental work. X-rays or other records may be needed to distinguish a cavity, crack, infection, or damaged restoration.
Tell us when the problem began, whether there is swelling, and what makes the pain change. If a crown or fragment came off, bring it with you. The examination determines whether treatment can be completed at that visit, needs stabilization first, or requires further care.
A restorable tooth may need a filling, a crown, or root canal treatment. If it cannot be saved, we will explain extraction and the next steps. Treatment depends on the diagnosis, not the symptom alone.
Our in-house digital lab supports same-day crowns for selected cases. Other teeth need infection treatment, preparation, or a later visit before a final restoration is appropriate.
After urgent care, ask what still needs to be completed. We can arrange ongoing general care and exams and preventive visits at the right time. New patients are welcome.
For a specific concern, read what to do when a crown comes off, a filling falls out while traveling, or a tooth is knocked out. These guides support, but do not replace, an examination.

How We Plan
How we handle urgent dental problems
- Listen to what happened, how long it has hurt, and what you need to get back to.
- Take focused X-rays, photos, or scans when needed.
- Identify whether the tooth needs a filling, crown, root canal, extraction, or stabilization.
- Start pain-relief treatment and use same-day lab options for crowns, temporary fixes, or front-tooth repairs when appropriate.
- Give clear next steps so you know what happens today and what happens after.
Astra Dental Details
Emergency dental care in Stratford
Astra Dental sees urgent adult dental problems such as severe tooth pain, swelling, broken teeth, lost crowns, oral infections, and front-tooth injuries.
The visit starts with diagnosis: where the pain is coming from, whether infection is present, whether the tooth can be restored, and what can be done safely the same day.
When the case and schedule allow, Dr. Sran can use in-house lab workflows for certain emergency crowns, temporary fixes, and front-tooth repairs.
When to call for urgent dental care
Call Astra Dental if pain is worsening, swelling appears, a tooth breaks, a crown or filling comes loose, or biting suddenly hurts. If swelling affects breathing or swallowing, seek emergency medical care immediately.
Common Questions
Emergency Dentist FAQ
What counts as a dental emergency?
Severe tooth pain, swelling, trauma, a broken tooth, bleeding, a lost crown, or a front-tooth issue before work or an event can all be urgent. If you are unsure, call the office.
Can Astra Dental fix a broken tooth or crown the same day?
Often we can evaluate it the same day, and some broken teeth, lost crowns, porcelain crowns, and emergency smile fixes can be repaired or made in-house when the diagnosis and schedule allow.
Should I go to the hospital for dental swelling?
Call 911 for trouble breathing or swallowing. Seek emergency medical care now for rapidly spreading mouth or neck swelling, or swelling affecting an eye. Do not wait for an online appointment or an office callback.
When should dental swelling go to the ER?
Call 911 for trouble breathing or swallowing. Seek emergency medical care now for rapidly spreading mouth or neck swelling, or swelling affecting an eye. Do not wait for an online appointment or an office callback.
Can an emergency tooth always be fixed the same day?
Sometimes treatment can begin or be completed the same day, especially for certain broken teeth, crowns, and temporary fixes. The safest plan depends on diagnosis, infection, tooth structure, bite, materials, and scheduling.
Is severe tooth pain usually a root canal?
Not always, but lingering pain, biting pain, swelling, or pain that wakes you up can point toward nerve infection. A focused exam and X-ray help determine whether a root canal, crown, extraction, or another option is appropriate.
