We Handle Real Dental Emergencies

Not every dental problem requires emergency care, but when you’re dealing with severe pain, uncontrolled bleeding, or trauma to your mouth, waiting isn’t an option. We treat the emergencies that hospital emergency rooms can’t handle, and as your painless dentist, Dr. Kupetz makes sure you receive both immediate relief and comfortable care.

Severe toothaches that don’t respond to over-the-counter pain medication often indicate serious problems like infections or abscesses, which we address using painless dentistry techniques to eliminate your discomfort while treating the underlying issue. Broken teeth that expose the nerve cause excruciating pain and leave your tooth vulnerable to further damage—our priority is stopping that pain quickly and gently. Knocked-out teeth have the best chance of survival when reimplanted within an hour of the accident, so give us a call immediately if you’re in need of emergency reimplantation or dental implants. These situations require immediate attention from a dentist with the right equipment, expertise, and commitment to painless dentistry to diagnose the problem and provide definitive treatment that gets you out of pain fast.

What's Included In Emergency Treatment

Emergency dental appointments include everything needed to diagnose your problem and make you comfortable. We start with a thorough examination and digital X-rays to identify the source of your pain or assess the extent of damage.

Once we know what we’re dealing with, we give you immediate pain relief using painless dentistry methods and stabilize the affected area. As your painless dentist, Dr. Kupetz makes sure that every procedure—no matter if it’s root canal therapy to save an infected tooth, emergency extractions when teeth can’t be saved, or temporary restorations to protect damaged teeth until permanent treatment can be completed—is performed with your comfort as the top priority.

You’ll leave with clear instructions for post-treatment care and follow-up appointments scheduled as needed. Our goal is to resolve your emergency completely through effective, painless dentistry, not just give you temporary relief.

We understand that dental emergencies are unexpected, and financial concerns shouldn’t prevent you from getting the immediate care you need. Dr. Scott Kupetz accepts CareCredit, a healthcare credit card that makes emergency dental treatment affordable through flexible payment plans. CareCredit offers special financing options, including interest-free periods for qualified patients, allowing you to get the painless emergency dental care you need right away and pay over time in manageable monthly payments. Our team will help you understand your financing options during your emergency visit, so you can focus on getting relief from your dental pain without worrying about upfront costs.

Emergency Dentist FAQs

Common questions about our Emergency Dentist services

What qualifies as a dental emergency that needs immediate care?

A dental emergency is any situation that involves severe pain, uncontrolled bleeding, trauma to your mouth, or risk of losing a tooth. This includes severe toothaches that don’t respond to over-the-counter pain medication, knocked-out or loosened teeth, broken teeth that expose the nerve, abscesses or facial swelling, and lost fillings or crowns that cause significant pain. If you’re experiencing any of these symptoms, you should seek emergency dental care immediately. Delaying treatment can lead to more serious complications, permanent damage, or the loss of teeth that could otherwise be saved.

Do you see emergency dental patients after regular business hours?

Yes, we provide 24-hour emergency dental services for patients experiencing urgent dental problems. Dental emergencies don’t wait for convenient times, and neither do we. If you’re dealing with severe tooth pain, a broken tooth, or any other urgent dental issue outside of regular business hours, contact us and we’ll arrange to see you as quickly as possible. We understand that dental pain can be unbearable and that some situations require immediate attention to prevent permanent damage or complications.

How quickly can you see me for a dental emergency?

We reserve emergency appointment slots every day specifically for patients who need urgent dental care. For true emergencies involving severe pain, trauma, or risk of losing a tooth, we can typically see you the same day you contact us. The exact timing depends on the nature of your emergency and our current schedule, but we prioritize getting patients out of pain as quickly as possible. When you contact us, describe your symptoms in detail so we can determine the urgency of your situation and schedule you appropriately.

What should I do while waiting to see you for my emergency?

While waiting for your emergency appointment, there are several steps you can take to manage your situation. For severe tooth pain, rinse your mouth with warm water and use dental floss to remove any food particles that might be causing irritation. You can take over-the-counter pain medication as directed, but never place aspirin directly on your gums as it can cause burns. For a knocked-out tooth, keep it moist by placing it in milk or holding it in your mouth between your cheek and gums. For broken teeth, save any pieces and rinse your mouth with warm water. Apply a cold compress to reduce swelling if there’s facial trauma.

Can you save a tooth that's been knocked out completely?

In many cases, yes, but time is critical. A knocked-out tooth has the best chance of survival when it’s reimplanted within 30 minutes to an hour of the accident. The key is keeping the tooth moist and getting to our office as quickly as possible. Handle the tooth by the crown only, never touch the root, and avoid scrubbing or removing any tissue fragments. If you can’t place it back in the socket immediately, store it in milk or hold it in your mouth. The longer you wait, the lower the chances of successful reimplantation, which is why we treat these cases as true emergencies requiring immediate attention.

What types of emergency dental treatments can you provide same-day?

We can provide comprehensive emergency dental treatment on the same day for most urgent situations. This includes emergency root canal therapy to save infected teeth, tooth extractions when teeth cannot be saved, temporary and permanent fillings for cavities causing severe pain, emergency crown placement, treatment of dental abscesses and infections, repair of broken or chipped teeth, and reimplantation of knocked-out teeth. We also provide emergency pain management and can stabilize damaged teeth until more complex treatment can be completed. Our goal is to resolve your emergency completely during your visit, not just provide temporary relief.
