Frequently Asked Questions About Dental Emergency

Should I call the dentist after hours if I have a dental emergency?

Call our office (voicemail covers after-hours); for severe swelling, breathing/swallowing difficulty, or uncontrolled bleeding, go to the ER immediately. 

Most plans cover some emergency care, and we’ll clarify your coverage upfront and work with you on payment if needed.

No. Unlike bone, teeth don’t self-repair, so an untreated crack tends to worsen; earlier treatment means better options.

Call us — we’ll help assess urgency, and we’d rather you reach out than wonder.

It depends on the treatment needed — we’ll give you a clear picture when you call, so there will be no surprise bills after a rough day.
