FAQs
What counts as a dental emergency?
An emergency is anything that causes severe pain, swelling, bleeding, or damage to your teeth or gums. This includes toothaches, broken or knocked-out teeth, infections, or injuries. If you’re unsure, call (707) 578-7701, and we’ll help you decide if you need same-day care.
Can you see me the same day?
Yes. As your trusted Santa Rosa emergency dentist, we leave time in our schedule for urgent visits. Our team will do everything possible to see you quickly and relieve your discomfort.
What should I do if I knock out a tooth?
Pick up the tooth by the crown (not the root), gently rinse it with water, and place it back in the socket if possible. If not, keep it in a cup of milk and call us immediately. Fast action can make reimplantation more successful.
Will emergency treatment be painful?
We focus on making your visit as comfortable as possible. Local anesthetic and sedation options are available if needed, and our team will explain each step so you know what to expect.
Do you accept insurance for emergencies?
Yes. We’ll file claims with your insurance provider and help you maximize your benefits. If you don’t have insurance, we also offer flexible financing and in-house membership plans to make emergency care accessible.
