We prioritize emergency patients and often provide same-day appointments. Call us as soon as your emergency occurs, and we’ll do everything possible to see you immediately. For after-hours emergencies, call our main number for instructions.
Time is critical! Rinse the tooth gently (don’t scrub), place it back in the socket if possible, or keep it in milk or saliva. Call us immediately—if we can see you within 30-60 minutes, there’s a good chance of saving the tooth. Don’t let the tooth dry out.
Costs vary depending on the treatment needed. Simple procedures like extractions start around $150-$300. More complex emergencies may cost more. We accept most insurance plans and will work with you on payment. In a true emergency, getting treatment to relieve pain and prevent complications is the priority.
Go to the ER if you have: severe facial swelling affecting breathing or swallowing, uncontrolled bleeding that won’t stop, jaw fracture from trauma, or signs of serious infection with high fever. For tooth pain, abscesses, knocked-out teeth, or broken teeth, call Dr. Azzouni first—we’re better equipped to handle dental emergencies.
Take over-the-counter pain medication (ibuprofen or acetaminophen) as directed. Apply a cold compress to the outside of your face if there’s swelling. Avoid hot, cold, or hard foods. Don’t apply aspirin directly to the gum (can burn tissue). If pain is severe, call us immediately—we may be able to see you sooner or provide additional guidance.
Don’t wait—prompt treatment can save your tooth and relieve your pain.
