Understanding the Cost of Dental Emergencies

Dental emergencies are not all the same, which is why there is no set price for these appointments. To determine how much your emergency treatment will cost, you will need to schedule a visit with our team. After examining your mouth and analyzing our findings, we will craft a treatment plan as well as a cost estimate for you to review. Our team will then go over ways to pay for your care so that your out-of-pocket expenses remain as little as possible.

Keys to Preventing Dental Emergencies

If you want to keep your teeth in the best possible shape as well as avoid sudden trips to the emergency dentist’s office, you’ll need to consider ways to protect your smile. You can do this by:

  • Practicing good oral hygiene at home by brushing, flossing, and rinsing regularly.
  • Keeping up with your six-month dental checkups and teeth cleanings.
  • Wearing appropriate mouth protection while engaging in sports or while sleeping (if you are prone to bruxism).
  • Eating healthy, nutritious foods that consist of fruits and vegetables, lean meats, dairy, leafy greens, etc.
  • Not using your teeth as tools to open packages, containers, or other similar products.
