Our team can help you navigate your situation and help you determine whether your symptoms require urgent attention. We’ve also included some of the most common emergencies that we see below.
Understanding the Cost of Dental Emergencies

Because no two emergencies are the same, there’s no set price tag associated with these visits. It will depend on several factors, including whether you require diagnostic imaging, which treatment you need, and whether you receive dental sedation. Based on all of these, our team will be able to provide you with a cost estimate once you arrive and we’ve made a diagnosis. We’re also happy to file a claim on your behalf to ensure you receive maximum reimbursement from your PPO dental insurance plan. If you’re uninsured or underinsured, you may be able to benefit from our in-house membership plan or additional financing.
Keys to Preventing Dental Emergencies

While you can’t completely avoid experiencing a dental emergency, there are several preventive measures you can take to decrease your chances of experiencing one, such as:
- Visiting your dentist every six months for routine checkups and cleanings.
- Maintaining a good at-home dental hygiene routine.
- Not using your teeth to open packages or chew on hard items.
- Protect your teeth from nightly grinding (bruxism) and while playing contact sports.
- Maintain a balanced diet that isn’t excessively high in carbohydrates or sugars.
