Emergency Dentist Q&A in Cedar Park, TX

Learn more about emergency dental care with answers to common questions from patients: 

What is considered a dental emergency?

If you are experiencing significant dental pain, swelling, or bleeding, you are always welcome to call our office so we can advise. Not every situation requires immediate attention, but we will almost always recommend that you come in right away for the following conditions:

  • Unbearable Toothache
  • Cracked, Broken, or Dislodged Tooth
  • Severe Gum Swelling or Bleeding
  • Lost Dental Restoration
  • Dental Abscess

Should I go to the emergency room or see an emergency dentist?

It is pretty standard for patients to visit the hospital for issues that should be treated by a dental professional. However, if your emergency is tooth, gum, or jaw-related, we recommend calling our office first before you decide what to do. Emergency rooms generally don’t have the expertise or equipment required to care for dental emergencies, and they often refer patients to an emergency dentist. If you have any other injuries that are more time-sensitive, then you may want to visit the ER first.

Is emergency dental care affordable? 

At Vista Ridge Family Dentistry, we strive to make all our services as affordable as possible, including our emergency services. However, in many cases, the best thing you can do is seek immediate treatment and work out the financial details later to prevent your situation from becoming worse and more costly.

Our membership plan covers one emergency exam per year, and we accept payment plans if you need to break up the cost of your care. For more information, please call our office or visit our financial page.
