Emergency dentistry focuses on providing immediate dental care for unexpected oral health issues that cause severe pain, bleeding, or trauma to the teeth and surrounding tissues. These situations require prompt attention to relieve pain, prevent further damage, and save natural teeth whenever possible.
At Alta Dental Group, our emergency dental services are comprehensive and available seven days a week by appointment. We’ve designed our practice to accommodate urgent cases quickly, with a board-certified dental anesthesiologist on our team to ensure your comfort during treatment. Our emergency care goes beyond just addressing your immediate pain—we develop treatment plans that restore your oral health completely.
Dental emergencies can happen to anyone, regardless of how diligent you are with oral hygiene. From a sudden toothache that keeps you awake at night to a broken tooth from biting something hard, these situations demand immediate professional attention to prevent complications and preserve your smile.
At Alta Dental Group, our multidisciplinary team excels in handling dental emergencies with precision and compassion. Dr. Rashad Altawaty and Dr. Omar Bajwa bring their extensive experience in general and implant dentistry to emergency situations, ensuring comprehensive care for damaged or lost teeth. For complex cases involving gum issues, Dr. Victor Perez, our board-certified periodontist, provides specialized intervention.
What truly sets our emergency care apart is the presence of Dr. Marco Savittieri, our board-certified dental anesthesiologist. His expertise enables us to offer immediate pain relief and comfort during emergency procedures, even for patients with severe pain or dental anxiety. Together with our surgical assistants and onsite lab technicians, our team delivers seamless emergency care that addresses both your immediate needs and long-term oral health.
Our patient-centered approach means we take the time to understand your emergency, explain your treatment options clearly, and provide the most appropriate care—all while prioritizing your comfort and peace of mind during a stressful situation.
When you experience a dental emergency, our treatment process is designed to provide efficient, effective care with minimal waiting and maximum comfort. Here’s what to expect:
First, call our office immediately to describe your emergency. Our knowledgeable staff will assess your situation, provide immediate advice for managing your condition, and schedule a prompt appointment—often the same day.
Upon arrival, you’ll be quickly evaluated by one of our emergency dental specialists. We use advanced diagnostic imaging when necessary to identify the exact nature and extent of your emergency. This thorough yet efficient assessment ensures we develop the most appropriate treatment plan.
Next, our priority is relieving your pain. Dr. Savittieri, our dental anesthesiologist, works closely with our treatment team to ensure you’re comfortable before and during any procedures. This specialized approach to pain management sets our emergency care apart.
Treatment follows immediately after diagnosis and pain control. Whether you need a simple procedure or more complex intervention, our comprehensive in-house capabilities mean we can address most emergencies in a single visit. From emergency root canals to tooth reimplantation, broken tooth repair, or infection management—our team has the expertise and technology to handle your specific situation.
Before you leave, we’ll provide detailed aftercare instructions, appropriate prescriptions, and schedule any necessary follow-up appointments. We’ll also discuss preventive strategies to reduce the risk of similar emergencies in the future.
