What Is An Emergency Dental Visit?
An emergency dental visit addresses sudden problems that need immediate attention to relieve pain, protect teeth, or prevent worsening damage. That might include severe tooth pain, a loose restoration after an accident, or a broken tooth that exposes sensitive areas. We evaluate the problem with a problem exam and X-ray when needed, then offer conservative, effective options to stabilize the situation and help you feel better.
When To Call Our Office
Knowing when to call keeps small issues from becoming larger. Reach out to us via our contact page or call if you notice any of the following:
- Severe or worsening toothache that interrupts sleep or daily tasks.
- A crown or filling that suddenly becomes loose or falls out.
- A chipped or cracked tooth causing sharp pain or rough edges.
If you’re unsure, call first. We’ll triage your situation and help you determine whether to come in or manage symptoms at home until your visit.

Five Benefits Of Same-Day Emergency Care
Quick, local access to care does more than ease pain. Patients who seek immediate attention often avoid more complex procedures later. Five key benefits include:
- Rapid pain relief and fewer sleepless nights
- Immediate protection of damaged tooth structure
- Faster diagnosis to stop infection
- Clear treatment plans tailored to your needs
- Coordinated follow-up to restore full function
These advantages matter when you have a busy life and require predictable, sensible solutions.
What To Expect During Your Visit
We keep the process straightforward. Expect a brief, problem-focused exam and any necessary X-rays needed to determine the correct course of treatment. Then we’ll explain treatment options and a proposed timeline. If you have dental fear or anxiety, please share these concerns with Dr Martinson or a team member; we will utilize various techniques to keep you comfortable and well-informed. Before you leave, we can share with you the recommended treatment and book a follow-up to complete your treatment.
