Our goal is to help you feel better as quickly as possible—and to ensure you aren’t left waiting in pain.

Our dentists offer a complete range of treatment options to handle urgent situations promptly and effectively, including:
If your toothache is caused by infection or nerve inflammation, a root canal may be needed to relieve pain and save the tooth. We provide same-day root canal treatment whenever appropriate.
When a tooth is too damaged or infected to be restored, our team can perform gentle, efficient extractions—often during the same visit.
Chipped, fractured, or broken teeth can often be restored with bonding, same-day fillings, or temporary crowns until a permanent solution is ready.
Oral infections can progress quickly. We assess the source of the problem, relieve your discomfort, and begin treatment right away to prevent further spread.
Whether from sports, accidents, or unexpected impact, we treat fractured teeth, knocked-out teeth, and soft tissue injuries with urgency and compassion.
If you’re unsure what you need, our team will evaluate the issue, explain your options clearly, and begin treatment as soon as possible.
Delaying treatment can make dental emergencies worse.
Fast attention helps:
If you're experiencing significant discomfort, swelling, or trauma, seeking care right away is the safest choice.

We understand that dental emergencies can be stressful, especially when pain is involved. Our team focuses on creating a calm, welcoming environment from the moment you call. We take time to listen, assess your symptoms, and explain what’s happening and how we can help.
With advanced diagnostic tools, gentle techniques, and a compassionate approach, we make it easier to get through dental emergencies with confidence and comfort.
Hospitals and urgent care clinics can help with severe infections, swelling, or pain control, but they cannot perform dental treatments such as root canals or extractions. Only a dentist can diagnose and treat the cause of a toothache. Contact us for same-day emergency care.
Hold the tooth by the crown (not the root), rinse gently if needed, and try to place it back in the socket. If that isn’t possible, store it in milk and call us immediately. Teeth have the best chance of being saved within the first hour.
