An emergency is a situation that happens without notice. When patients experience a dental emergency, they need to see a professional as soon as possible to restore the smile to its original health and appearance. Buffalo area patients are welcome to contact Dr. Gordon Kent at the Smile Center. Our phone is monitored 24 hours a day, 7 days a week by a live person who can assist you with your problem. The individual can walk you through what to do until you can get into the office for a visit, and can also schedule same day or next day appointments.

  • Injury to the teeth or soft tissues of the mouth
  • Broken or chipped teeth
