FAQs
What counts as a dental emergency?
Severe or worsening tooth pain, a knocked-out or broken tooth, uncontrolled bleeding, swelling of the face or jaw, or a lost crown or filling causing pain. When in doubt, call — we’ll tell you honestly whether it can wait.
How much does an emergency visit cost?
It depends on what we find and what treatment you choose — you’ll get a written, itemized plan before anything begins. We accept most PPO insurance and CareCredit financing, and we’ll verify your coverage on the spot.
