What is Emergency Dentistry

Why Should I Choose Emergency Dentistry?

Emergency dentistry is urgent dental care for problems that need attention right away, like severe pain, swelling, or a broken or knocked-out tooth. Rather than waiting days or weeks, an emergency visit gets you seen quickly so we can relieve your discomfort and treat the underlying issue. Common emergencies include lost fillings or crowns, painful infections, and dental injuries from accidents or sports. Whatever the situation, the goal is to stop the pain, protect your tooth, and get you back to normal as soon as possible.

The Benefits of Emergency Dentistry

Fast Pain Relief

Prompt care eases severe tooth pain quickly, so you are not left suffering through a long, painful wait.

Saves Your Tooth

Acting fast on a knocked-out or broken tooth gives you the best possible chance of saving it.

Stops It Worsening

Treating an emergency early keeps a small problem from turning into a serious, spreading infection.

Quick Reassurance

Getting seen right away takes away the worry that comes with not knowing what is wrong.

Follow-Up Plan

If more care is needed, you leave with a clear plan and everything set up for your next steps.

Signs You May Need Emergency Dentistry

Severe Toothache

Intense or throbbing tooth pain that will not let up is a clear sign you need prompt attention.

Knocked-Out Tooth

A tooth that has been knocked out is a true emergency, and fast care can sometimes save it.

Swelling or Abscess

Facial swelling or a painful abscess can signal a serious infection that needs urgent treatment.

Broken Tooth

A badly cracked, broken, or chipped tooth should be seen quickly to prevent further damage or pain.

You're in good company…

Loved by Oceanside Families

Dr. Chan and staff are always so genuine and helpful. Even for a routine cleaning they make the experience enjoyable and easy. When I was having an emergency wisdom tooth situation Dr. Chan took the call even though he wasn't in the office and referred me to a place that were able to extract all my wisdom teeth the very next day.

I'm here visiting family in Cali and needed emergency help, thank god for Dr.Chan! Seriously super nice and extremely helpful, got a proper diagnosis after my own dentist dropped the ball. I never leave good reviews but this Doc deserves it, thank you so much for the quick fix! He gave me a list of instructions for my other doc back in NY too to properly fix my tooth (prob going to look for a new dentist anyway) thanks so much doc, back to vaca!
