For life-threatening emergencies, please call 911 immediately.
Step One: Get a Clear Diagnosis
“What happens during an emergency visit?”Your appointment begins with a Limited Oral Evaluation (LOE) — a focused, 60-minute visit designed to identify the cause of your pain and outline next steps.
For a flat rate of $139, your emergency visit includes:
A targeted exam of the problem area
Any digital x-rays needed to evaluate what’s happening beneath the surface
A clear, straightforward diagnosis from our dentist
This visit is focused on identifying the issue; cleanings are not included and may be scheduled for a separate appointment.
Note: The $139 fee applies to patients without insurance. If you have insurance, the visit will be billed according to your plan benefits.
