What Patients Are Saying
FAQs
Find answers to frequently asked questions from our patients.
What should I do if I knock out a tooth?
Act fast—place the tooth in milk or saline and call us right away. If you get to us within an hour, there’s a better chance we can reinsert it successfully.
Can I go to the ER for a dental emergency?
Hospitals typically can’t treat dental problems directly. Unless there’s severe facial trauma or uncontrolled bleeding, your best bet is to see an emergency dentist as soon as possible.
Is emergency dentistry covered by insurance?
Many dental emergencies are partially or fully covered by insurance, especially if they involve infection or injury. We’ll work with your plan and explain all costs clearly before treatment.
Do you accept walk-ins for emergencies?
We encourage you to call ahead if you can, but if you arrive with an urgent issue, we’ll do everything possible to see you the same day.
