About this service

Care built around what your tooth needs.

We strive to make same-day appointments available for patients in pain. Availability varies, and a phone conversation helps us understand symptoms and prioritize care appropriately.

  • Prompt assessment of pain, swelling, injury, or a broken restoration
  • Diagnostic information and clear options for immediate next steps
  • A calm plan for stabilizing the concern and arranging follow-up care

What to expect.

We explain findings and choices in plain language so you can make an informed decision about your care.

01

Call the office

Tell us what happened, when symptoms began, and whether you have swelling, fever, bleeding, trauma, or difficulty breathing or swallowing.

02

Focused examination

The dentist evaluates the affected area and may recommend imaging to identify the source and extent of the problem.

03

Relief and next steps

Treatment focuses on the immediate concern and a clear plan for definitive or follow-up care.

Is it right for you?

Start with an examination.

Contact us promptly for significant tooth pain, swelling, a cracked or knocked-out tooth, dental trauma, uncontrolled bleeding, or a lost restoration causing pain. Call 911 for a life-threatening emergency, severe facial trauma, or difficulty breathing.

Online information cannot diagnose a dental condition. A clinical examination is needed before treatment is recommended.

Common questions

Before your visit.

Can I get a same-day emergency appointment?

We strive to offer same-day care for patients in pain, but availability varies. Calling early gives the team the best opportunity to assess and schedule the concern.

What should I do with a knocked-out permanent tooth?

Handle the tooth by the crown rather than the root, keep it moist, and seek dental care immediately. If there is major trauma or uncontrolled bleeding, seek emergency medical care.

Should I go to the emergency room?

Call 911 or seek emergency medical care for difficulty breathing, severe facial trauma, uncontrolled bleeding, or other life-threatening symptoms. Dental problems without those signs should still be assessed promptly by a dentist.
