Emergency Dentistry

Access to emergency dentistry has benefits for residents in the area and surrounding communities

An important part of every person’s general sense of well-being is how healthy their teeth and gums are. Oral health may not be something that is immediately considered as impactful on quality of life, and the idea that one may need access to emergency dentistry may not be readily recognized. Drs. Mike and Marisa Milligan are experienced dentists who have been serving the needs of BloomingtonIllinois, area residents for several years. With proactive care, we hope to help you avoid dental emergencies. At the same time, we understand that there are times when urgent care may be needed.

At Eastland Dental Center, patients can benefit from general dental treatments, as well as gentle, effective emergency care when needed. We welcome existing and new patients, as well as individuals who are traveling through our area to our office who may experience a dental emergency. In our view, every person in need deserves comprehensive dental care at the time in which they most need it.

Knowing where to turn for emergency dental care can ease the stress associated with unexpected problems. Whether a tooth infection is causing intense, unrelenting pain or a tooth gets dislodged or knocked out during a sporting activity, patients can count on the experience and gentle manner offered by our friendly dental team. The goal of emergency dental care is to return the patient to comfort and oral health as quickly as possible, using techniques and materials that will achieve long-lasting results.

As general and emergency dentists, Drs. Mike and Marisa Milligan offer the consistency in care patients most need when facing urgent dental problems. When you choose Eastland Dental Center as your dental office, our dental team will become familiar with your specific oral needs.
