Emergency Dentistry FAQs

Is a toothache a dental emergency?

It can be—especially if the pain is severe, constant, getting worse, or accompanied by swelling, fever, or pain when biting. Call us and we'll help you determine how urgently you need to be seen.

Can I get a same-day emergency appointment?

In many cases, yes. Call as early in the day as possible so we can find the soonest available time—we'll do everything we can to see you quickly.

What should I do if my tooth gets knocked out?

Handle the tooth by the crown only, keep it moist (milk is ideal), and call us immediately. The best chance of saving the tooth is within 30 minutes of the injury.

Should I go to the ER for a dental emergency?

Go to the ER for trouble breathing or swallowing, severe facial swelling that's spreading, uncontrolled bleeding, major trauma, or a suspected broken jaw. For tooth pain, broken teeth, lost crowns, and infections, call the dentist first—we're better equipped to diagnose and treat dental problems.

How much does an emergency dental visit cost?

Cost depends on the diagnosis and treatment needed. We'll explain your options and provide a clear estimate before beginning any work. We accept most major insurance plans and offer CareCredit financing.

Can a dentist pull a tooth the same day?

In some cases, yes—if extraction is determined to be the best treatment. Dr. Futch will evaluate your situation, explain your options, and only proceed with your informed consent.
