Are you standing with one hand over your mouth and the other on the phone – but you feel frozen? What is holding you back from calling us to make use of our 24 hour emergency services? Are you worried that your problem isn’t severe enough and you will feel silly for calling? Maybe you are worried about finances, so you figure you’ll just take some pain relievers and wait it out to see if the problem goes away. Rather than making assumptions that can harm your oral health, we want you to feel completely comfortable relying on urgent care with us. Consider a few common questions (and answers) that might enhance your sense of confidence in contacting us.

Questions and Answers: Emergency Care

Question: Is there a charge for an emergency consultation? What if I think something is wrong and requires immediate treatment but it turns out I have the luxury of a bit more time before I need a procedure?

Answer: No, you will not need to worry about costs if you don’t know what’s wrong. Fortunately, we offer free emergency consultations.

Question: Are you going to be upset if I come in for 24 hour emergency services but it turns out my issue does not require an immediate procedure?

Answer: Of course not! We are always happy when patients take the initiative to call us because they are protecting their oral health. We will determine the cause of the problem and offer suggestions and treatment, whether or not it requires an immediate procedure. If the discomfort or issue cannot wait, always call.

Question: Can you really help me after business hours if I am experiencing a dental trauma?

Answer: Yes. We offer 24 hour emergency services for patients because we know that accidents often happen at the most inconvenient of times. We can schedule a visit for you outside of our regular business hours if necessary.
