Emergency Dental Services, Fast relief

Dental pain or injury doesn’t wait — and neither do we. Call us for urgent care that puts your comfort first.

Overview

Dental emergencies can strike at any time — and when they do, you deserve quick, caring, and experienced help. Whether it’s a sudden toothache, a knocked-out tooth, or a broken crown, Gold Star Dental is here to provide same-day or next-available treatment to relieve your pain and protect your smile.

We understand how stressful dental emergencies can be. That’s why we prioritize urgent cases and offer flexible scheduling to get you the care you need, fast. You’ll get clear answers, gentle treatment, and a plan to restore your oral health without added worry.

Common Dental Emergencies We Treat

We handle a wide range of urgent dental issues, including:

  • Severe toothaches or swelling
  • Broken or chipped teeth
  • Knocked-out teeth (avulsed teeth)
  • Lost fillings or crowns
  • Infections or abscesses
  • Soft tissue injuries (gums, lips, tongue)

If you’re unsure whether your issue is an emergency, call us. We’re happy to guide you over the phone and get you scheduled as needed.

What to Do in a Dental Emergency

If a tooth has been knocked out, gently rinse it (without scrubbing) and try to place it back in the socket, or keep it in milk and call us immediately. For severe pain, swelling, or a broken tooth, avoid hard foods, use a cold compress, and give us a call right away.

The sooner you’re seen, the better your chances of saving the tooth or avoiding complications.

Same-Day Appointments and Rapid Relief

When you call our office with an emergency, we do everything possible to see you as soon as we can — often the same day. Once you’re here, we’ll quickly assess the problem, relieve your pain, and stabilize your condition. Follow-up treatment can be scheduled based on what’s needed.

Compassionate, No-Judgment Care

We understand emergencies happen — whether it’s due to dental anxiety, a skipped cleaning, or an unexpected accident. Our team is here to help, not judge. We’ll walk you through every step and make sure you feel supported and respected throughout your visit.

What qualifies as a dental emergency?

If you’re in pain, have swelling, bleeding, or a damaged tooth — it’s an emergency. Call us right away, and we’ll guide you.

We recommend calling first so we can prepare for your arrival and fit you in as soon as possible.

Handle the tooth by the crown (not the root), keep it moist in milk or saliva, and call us immediately. Time matters!

We keep costs transparent and only recommend what’s necessary to relieve pain and protect your health. We also work with most insurance plans. If your insurance won’t pay, we can set you up with an in-house payment plan!

Leave a message or call our emergency line (if available) — we’ll return your call as soon as possible and help you determine the next steps.
