For urgent dental concerns outside regular office hours, after-hours phone support is available so patients can reach Dr. Soliman for guidance. This after-hours access does not mean the physical office is open around the clock, but it provides an important point of contact when an urgent dental problem develops.
Call 585-424-3310 to speak with our team about an urgent dental problem.
More Than Temporary Pain Relief
An emergency dental visit should address more than the symptom alone. Dr. Soliman evaluates the cause of the pain or injury and determines whether the tooth can be repaired, requires root canal treatment, needs extraction or would benefit from another form of care.
Emergency patients may be treated for severe tooth pain, dental infections, fractured teeth, damaged restorations and dental trauma. When appropriate, treatment can begin during the emergency visit rather than requiring the patient to find another office for the next step.
This comprehensive approach is especially important for patients searching for an emergency dentist near them or urgent dental care in the Rochester area. The immediate goal is relief, but the longer-term goal is to restore oral health and reduce the risk of the same problem returning.

Technology That Supports Emergency Diagnosis
Finding the source of dental pain is an important first step in emergency treatment. Henrietta Family Dental uses digital imaging and other diagnostic technology to evaluate teeth, roots, bone and surrounding structures so Dr. Soliman can determine what is causing the problem and recommend appropriate care.
The practice uses technologies that include CBCT and 3D imaging, digital X-rays, intraoral scanning and cameras, and digital treatment-planning tools. Dr. Soliman also uses diagnostic methods such as pulp vitality testing when evaluating certain painful or injured teeth.
These tools can help support more precise diagnosis and treatment planning for infections, fractures, root canal problems, extractions and other urgent dental needs.
What to Expect During an Emergency Dental Visit
Your visit begins with an evaluation of the area causing pain or concern. Dr. Soliman may use digital imaging or other diagnostic tests to determine whether the problem involves decay, infection, the dental pulp, a fracture, gum tissue, an existing restoration or another condition.
Once the cause is identified, we will explain the findings and appropriate treatment options. Depending on the condition and the treatment required, care may begin during the same visit. More complex treatment may need to be completed in stages.
If an extraction is necessary, Dr. Soliman performs routine, surgical and wisdom tooth extractions in the office. If the tooth may be saved with endodontic treatment, he also provides root canal therapy in-house.
What to Do During a Dental Emergency
Call our office as soon as possible if you develop severe pain, swelling, bleeding, dental trauma or signs of an infection. Prompt evaluation can help determine the cause and whether immediate treatment is needed.
If a permanent tooth has been knocked out, handle it by the crown rather than the root. If possible, gently place it back into the socket without forcing it. If that is not possible, keep the tooth moist and contact our office immediately for instructions.
Facial swelling, difficulty breathing, difficulty swallowing, uncontrolled bleeding or symptoms that may indicate a medical emergency may require immediate hospital or emergency medical care.
Why Patients Choose Henrietta Family Dental for Emergency Dental Care
