Our Approach to Emergency Dental Care
Dental emergencies can be stressful and painful. That’s why we prioritize prompt and effective treatment for all our patients experiencing urgent dental needs. Whether you’re suffering from a severe toothache, have sustained an injury to your mouth, or are experiencing any other kind of dental distress, Greencastle Hometown Dental & Orthodontics is here to provide you with the care you need.
What to Do in a Dental Emergency
If you find yourself facing a dental emergency, it’s important to act quickly.
Here are some steps to follow:
1. Contact Us Immediately: Call our emergency dental care office as soon as possible to describe your situation. We’ll provide you with immediate advice and arrange for you to see one of our dentists at the earliest opportunity.
2. Manage Pain: If you are in pain, over-the-counter pain relievers can help manage discomfort until you can see the dentist. However, always follow the dosage instructions on the packaging and consult with us if you’re unsure.
3. Protect the Area: If you’ve broken a tooth or lost a filling, try to protect the area from further damage. Avoid chewing on that side of your mouth and rinse gently with warm water.
Located in the heart of Greencastle, Indiana, our clinic is equipped with the latest technology to handle a wide range of dental emergencies. We understand that dental emergencies can happen when you least expect them.
Our expert team, led by Dr. Dennis Knuth and Dr. Tess Funke, is dedicated to providing immediate care to alleviate pain and ensure your dental health is protected.

I am proud to serve patients in our community. Through continuing education and state-of-the-art equipment, we are able to offer you and your family the high level of care you’re looking for. My team at Hometown Dental and I will give you a warm welcome and our ongoing commitment to your dental health.
I am very passionate about dentistry. I strive to do for you what I would do for any of my friends or family; always giving you the care you deserve.
I feel fortunate to have graduated from the Ohio State University College of Dentistry, where I received an outstanding dental education from some of the best mentors in the nation. Prior to dental school, I earned a degree in electrical engineering and worked for 6 years in the electronics industry in Cincinnati.
DR. TESS FUNKE
PARTNER
Dr. Funke is excited to have joined the Greencastle Hometown Dental team. She moved back to her home state, Indiana, from Arkansas after completing a one-year advanced training program.
Dr. Funke attended the University of Louisville for dental school, where she was involved in student leadership and served on a mission trip in Jamaica to provide dental care. Dr. Funke is a proud Boilermaker alumnus!
When Dr. Funke isn’t with patients, you might find her with her partner in crime, Adam, or other members of her large family. (Her mom has seven siblings, and her dad has five!) She loves curling up with a good book (shout out to any other Harry Potter fans), staying healthy through fitness, and exploring new cities.
