When is after-hours dental treatment necessary?

If pain or injury is preventing you from sleeping, eating, or functioning normally, it’s time to call immediately.

  • Severe toothache that keeps you awake

  • Swelling of the gums or face

  • Cracked or broken tooth

  • Knocked-out tooth

  • Lost filling or crown

  • Pain when biting or chewing

  • Trauma from sports or accidents

  • Bleeding that won’t stop

Why you shouldn’t “wait until morning”

When a tooth is infected, fractured, or injured, every hour matters. Waiting until morning can allow bacteria and pressure to spread, turning a manageable emergency into a major procedure.

  • Early treatment prevents nerve damage

  • Higher chance of saving cracked or knocked-out teeth

  • Prevents infection from entering the bloodstream

  • Eliminates pain faster and avoids sleep-deprivation stress

What happens during an after-hours emergency visit?

Our priority is immediate relief and stabilization. Once we identify the cause of the pain using digital imaging and a clinical exam, we treat the problem directly — not just the symptoms.

  • Nerve stabilization / root canal therapy if needed

  • Re-cementing lost crowns

  • New composite fillings

  • Bonding for chipped teeth

  • Same-day temporary crowns

  • Drainage of abscess infections

  • Gentle extraction only when necessary

  • Antibiotics when clinically indicated

Most patients leave the same night with pain gone and the tooth protected.

Frequently Asked Questions

1Do you really see patients after normal business hours?
Yes. We offer after-hours emergency appointments so patients don’t have to suffer through the night or wait until the next day.
2Will I receive real treatment at night or just painkillers?
We provide real treatment — including nerve care, restorations, bonding, drainage of infection, and temporary crowns — not just medication.
3How much does an after-hours dental visit cost?
Costs depend on the treatment required, but emergency exams are similar to standard exam fees. PPO insurance typically applies normally even after hours.
4Do you treat children during after-hours emergencies?
Yes. We provide urgent care for both adults and children.
5Can tooth pain be life-threatening?
Infected teeth can become dangerous if swelling spreads to the airway or bloodstream. If swelling affects breathing or swallowing, call 911 immediately.
