Emergency Dentistry

Dental emergencies can be painful, stressful, and frightening. At Water Brook Dental, we provide same-day emergency dental care to quickly relieve pain, treat infection, and protect your oral health.

What Is a Dental Emergency?

You should contact us immediately if you experience:

Even if you’re unsure, it’s always better to call. Early treatment can prevent serious complications.

Emergency Dental Services We Provide

🦷 Broken or Painful Teeth

We treat cracked, fractured, or severely painful teeth with a focus on fast pain relief and tooth preservation whenever possible. Treatment may include fillings, crowns, or root canal therapy depending on the damage.

🦠 Swelling & Infections

Dental infections can spread quickly and become dangerous if untreated. We provide prompt care for abscesses and infections, including drainage, medication, and definitive treatment to remove the source of infection.

🦷 Tooth Extractions

When a tooth cannot be saved, we perform gentle extractions using modern anesthesia techniques for comfort. We also discuss replacement options—such as dentures or implants—before removal whenever possible.

What to Expect During an Emergency Visit

1. Immediate Evaluation

We assess your symptoms, take necessary X-rays, and identify the cause of pain or infection.

2. Pain Relief First

Our priority is to get you comfortable as quickly as possible.

3. Clear Treatment Options

We explain your condition in simple language and review all treatment choices, costs, and timelines before proceeding.

4. Same-Day Treatment When Possible

Many emergency issues can be treated the same day. If follow-up care is needed, we’ll schedule it promptly.

Insurance, Medicaid & Payment Options

We believe emergency dental care should be accessible.

Our team verifies benefits and explains costs upfront, so there are no surprises.
