310 S Lake Ave, Ste B1, PasadenaHow orthodontic emergency care works here
Most orthodontic problems are uncomfortable rather than serious: a bracket that comes loose, a wire that pokes the cheek, an aligner or retainer that cracks. They still deserve a call, because a damaged appliance can stop treatment from moving teeth the way it should. Premier Care lists damaged restorations or appliances among the emergencies it treats, prioritizes urgent cases, and offers same-day visits when availability allows.
Before you come in, a few general steps help. Keep any piece that has come off and bring it with you. If a wire is rubbing, orthodontic wax can cushion the end until you are seen; do not try to cut it yourself. A knocked-out or broken tooth, facial swelling, or bleeding that will not stop is a different matter: call right away, and for trouble breathing or serious facial trauma, go to an emergency room.
