Do I need an emergency dentist or should I go to an emergency room?
Research has shown that there are more than 2 million emergency department visits involving dental conditions each year in the United States. 1Many people are unsure what a dental emergency is and go to the nearest ER for problems like a toothache. But while emergency room doctors can stop bleeding after an accident, they cannot repair a tooth or even save a tooth. This is because many emergency departments are not staffed by a 24-hour dentist.
On the other hand, an emergency dentist in California (or elsewhere) can provide specific dental emergency care, including replacing, repairing, and saving a tooth. They can give you relief from toothache and treat the root cause of your pain. Emergency dentists are trained to treat common and less common dental emergencies. They can help keep you calm and relaxed during your dental treatment.
What’s more, unlike general dentists who are open only during regular business hours, emergency dentists in California can provide dental care at any hour, any day of the week, including holidays.
Finding an emergency dentist in California is easy with the Express Dentist hotline. Simply call the toll-free number 1-844-593-0591.

What do I need to make an emergency dental appointment?
When you call the Express Dentist hotline on 1-844-593-0591, make sure you have your dental insurance plan details on hand. This will allow the operator to confirm that the emergency dentist in California accepts your dental insurance. If you are uninsured, you can ask about payment methods and the possibility of setting up a deferred payment plan, if needed.
When you go to your appointment at a California emergency dental clinic, please take all your recent dental X-rays and other medical and dental records with you. This will help the emergency dentist create a treatment plan for you and provide the most appropriate procedures for your dental emergency.
What are some common dental emergencies California dentists treat?
Emergency dentists in California can treat all kinds of dental emergencies, some of which are briefly described below.
- Impacted wisdom tooth: A wisdom tooth that does not erupt from the gums can become infected and cause pain. You can have the offending wisdom tooth extracted at an emergency dental clinic in California.
- Tooth avulsion: A tooth avulsion is when a tooth becomes displaced from its socket due to an accident or due to tooth decay. It is important to seek immediate professional dental care. An emergency dentist can replant the tooth, provided you do not delay treatment by more than 30-60 minutes.
- Chipped tooth: A chipped or broken or fractured tooth can occur due to sports injuries, falling face down, or biting down on something hard. An emergency dentist can repair the tooth to restore both function and aesthetics.
- Tooth decay: Most cavities are not dental emergencies and can be treated by a regular dentist. However, deep cavities that involve the root of the tooth can be very painful and may require urgent dental care. An emergency dentist in California can prescribe antibiotics to control the infection, provide medications for pain relief, and perform definitive treatments like a root canal procedure to treat the tooth decay.
- Uncontrolled bleeding: Any bleeding in the oral cavity that does not stop with a few minutes of pressure should be evaluated immediately by emergency room doctors or an emergency dentist. This is a potentially life-threatening condition. An emergency dentist can examine the mouth for dental injuries that might need repair.
- Pain and swelling: Toothache can be debilitating and severe enough to make it impossible to sleep. If you need to see an emergency dentist for relief from toothache, call the Express Dentist hotline on 1-844-593-0591 for an after-hours or same-day dental appointment.
- Dental devices: People who wear dental devices such as braces or dentures sometimes need emergency dental care to fix things like a protruding wire or an ill-fitting denture. It is important not to delay treatment because doing so can lead to damage to other structures in the mouth or other dental complications.
- Temporary fillings: If a temporary filling falls out, you should visit an emergency dentist to have it replaced. Failure to do so will expose tissues inside your tooth to debris and bacteria.
Oral health contributes significantly to your overall health and wellbeing. Many oral diseases are progressive and get worse over time without treatment. Untreated dental health problems can lead to poor general health. Fortunately, most dental problems are treatable. Yet, many Americans delay dental care or do not receive it at all. This can lead to less effective and more costly dental care in the future. Don’t let the lack of access to emergency dentists in California prevent you from getting the dental treatment you need. Call the Express Dentist hotline on 1-844-593-0591 today.
