Same-Day Emergency Dental Care in Dallas
Go to the emergency room or call 911 first if you have facial swelling that makes it hard to breathe or swallow, bleeding that will not stop after 20 minutes of firm pressure, or a possible broken jaw. For every other dental emergency, call us.
Dental pain does not wait for a convenient appointment. Our Dallas office on Abrams Road in northeast Dallas holds time for emergencies Monday through Friday, and walk-ins are welcome. Call (214) 764-1315 and we will tell you honestly whether we can see you today and what it is likely to cost.
Is It a Dental Emergency?
If it hurts enough to stop you sleeping, eating or working, treat it as one. These are the reasons Dallas patients call us most often:
- Severe or throbbing toothache that pain relief is not touching
- Facial or gum swelling, or a bad taste that suggests an abscess
- A broken, cracked or chipped tooth — especially with a sharp edge
- A knocked-out adult tooth
- A lost filling, crown or bridge
- Bleeding or pain after an extraction elsewhere
- A denture that has cracked or is cutting into the gum
What an Emergency Visit Costs in Dallas
The emergency exam and X-ray are priced separately from treatment, and you are told the treatment price before anything starts. These are the typical ranges at our Dallas office.

Toothache, Swelling and Infection
A tooth that aches constantly, wakes you at night, or throbs when you lie down usually means the nerve is inflamed or infected. Once there is swelling or a bad taste, an abscess has formed, and it will not clear up on its own — antibiotics alone only buy time.
Treatment depends on whether the tooth can be saved: a root canal ($700–$1,600) keeps it, an extraction ($100–$600) removes it. We will show you the X-ray, tell you what each option costs, and let you decide.
Broken, Chipped and Knocked-Out Teeth
A chipped front tooth can often be repaired with bonding in one visit ($150–$500). A tooth broken below the gum line, or one that hurts to bite on, needs an X-ray first — sometimes a crown saves it, sometimes it comes out.
A knocked-out adult tooth is the one true race against the clock. Handle it by the crown, keep it moist in milk or back in the socket, and get to us as fast as you can — the first hour matters most.
Emergency Extractions and Sedation
When a tooth cannot be saved, taking it out is often the fastest route out of pain. Simple extractions run $100–$400 and surgical extractions $250–$600. Local anaesthetic is standard; nitrous oxide and oral sedation are available if you are anxious — tell us when you book.
If you lose a tooth you will want replaced, we can talk about implants or a partial denture once the site has healed. Nothing has to be decided the day you are in pain.
What to Do Before You Get Here
- Toothache: rinse with warm salt water, take over-the-counter pain relief as directed on the packet, and keep your head raised.
- Swelling: cold compress on the outside of the cheek, 20 minutes on and 20 off.
- Knocked-out tooth: hold it by the crown, keep it in milk or back in the socket, call us immediately.
- Broken tooth: rinse your mouth, cover a sharp edge with sugar-free gum or dental wax.
- Lost filling or crown: keep the piece and bring it with you; avoid chewing on that side.
- Bleeding socket: firm gauze pressure for 20 minutes without peeking.
Insurance, Medicaid and Financing
We accept most PPO dental plans, and Medicaid and CHIP for covered services. Call (214) 764-1315 before your visit and we will verify your benefits so you know what your plan covers before you sit in the chair.
For the balance, 0% financing options are available on approved credit through CareCredit, Sunbit and Compassionate Finance, alongside in-house payment plans. Our treatment coordinator lays the monthly options out side by side — approval depends on the lender's review.

What does an emergency dental visit cost in Dallas?
The emergency exam and X-ray run $50–$150. Treatment is priced separately — a simple extraction is $100–$400, a surgical extraction $250–$600, and a root canal $700–$1,600. You are told the price before treatment starts, and 0% financing options are available on approved credit.
Can I be seen the same day in Dallas?
Usually, yes. We hold time for emergencies Monday through Friday, and walk-ins are welcome. Same-day treatment is subject to availability, so call (214) 764-1315 first and we will tell you honestly what is possible today.
Are you open on weekends or 24 hours?
No. Our Dallas office is open Monday through Friday, 9 AM to 6 PM, and is closed Saturday and Sunday. If you have a dental emergency outside those hours, call us when we open, or go to an emergency room for severe swelling, uncontrolled bleeding or a possible broken jaw.
When should I go to the emergency room instead?
Go to the emergency room or call 911 if you have facial swelling that makes it hard to breathe or swallow, bleeding that will not stop after 20 minutes of firm pressure, or a possible broken jaw. A hospital can control swelling and airway problems that a dental office cannot.
What should I do if a tooth gets knocked out?
Pick the tooth up by the crown, not the root. Rinse it gently with milk or saline — do not scrub it. If you can, put it back in the socket and bite on gauze; otherwise keep it in milk. Call us immediately: a knocked-out adult tooth has the best chance of being saved within the first hour.
Do you take walk-ins for dental emergencies?
Yes, walk-ins are welcome at our Dallas office during business hours. Calling ahead on (214) 764-1315 helps — we can prepare for you and give you a realistic wait time.
Do you accept insurance and Medicaid for emergency visits?
We accept most PPO dental plans, and Medicaid and CHIP for covered services. Tell us your plan when you call and we will verify what is covered before you arrive.
Can you treat a dental abscess or infection?
Yes. Swelling and severe pain usually mean infection, which needs treatment — draining it, treating or removing the tooth, and antibiotics when appropriate. It will not resolve on its own, and it gets harder to treat the longer it waits. Call us the day you notice it.
Do you offer sedation for emergency treatment?
Yes. Local anaesthetic, nitrous oxide (laughing gas) and oral sedation are available for anxious patients. Tell us when you book so we can plan for it and tell you whether you will need a ride home.
Do you have Spanish-speaking staff in Dallas?
Yes — se habla español at our Dallas office. Ask for a Spanish-speaking team member when you call.
