We Understand Dental Pain
Same-Day Availability
We keep space open in our books to accommodate emergency situations. Call us as soon as possible and we’ll try to get you in.
Relief Comes First
We don’t make you “tough it out.” Dr. Jensen uses gentle numbing and comfort options to help you settle in and feel safe.
You’ll Get Clear Answers
We use digital X-rays and photos to find the source of the problem. Dr. Jensen will show you what she sees and explain it in plain language.
No Judgment, No Pressure
If it’s been a while since your last visit, you’re still welcome here. We’ll focus on solutions that fit your comfort level, timeline, and budget.
We Work with Your Insurance
When to Call Us
If you’re not sure it’s an emergency, call anyway. We can help you decide what to do next.
Common reasons patients reach out:
- toothache that won’t calm down
- swelling, a bad taste, or signs of infection
- a broken, chipped, or cracked tooth
- a lost filling or crown
- pain when biting
- a knocked-out tooth
- a denture that broke or suddenly doesn’t fit
What to Do Before You Get Here
A few simple steps can help while you’re on your way:
- Rinse gently with warm water
- Use a cold compress for swelling
- Avoid chewing on the sore side
- Save any broken pieces and bring them in
- If a tooth is knocked out, hold it by the crown and store it in milk or saliva, then call immediately
What to Expect at Your Emergency Visit
We listen
Tell us what hurts and what happened. We’ll ask a few quick questions so we can help you faster.
Exam and X-rays
Your emergency exam includes X-rays, so we can pinpoint the cause and rule out bigger concerns.
A plan you can understand
Dr. Jensen will explain what’s happening and give you options. If treatment is needed today, we’ll talk through it clearly before we begin.
Next steps that feel manageable
If your emergency needs follow-up care, we’ll map out a plan and help you schedule it in a way that works for your life.
Comfort Options
When you’re in pain, the environment matters. We keep things calm with:
- blankets and neck pillows
- wireless headphones
- TVs in treatment rooms
- a steady, supportive team
We also offer comfort options during treatment, including:

Do you take insurance or offer financing?
We accept most PPO insurance plans (no Medicaid). We also offer financing options if you need them, and we’ll help you understand your choices.

You’re still welcome here. We’ll meet you where you are and focus on getting you out of pain.
What if I’m nervous or anxious?
You’re not alone. We’ll slow down, explain everything, and focus on comfort first.
How much is an emergency visit?
Our Emergency Exam is $50, and it includes your exam and X-rays. Treatment is separate, and we’ll review options and costs before we begin.
Do you offer same-day emergency appointments?
Yes, whenever possible. Call early so we can reserve time for you.
Do you offer same-day help if my dentures are rubbing or loose?
In many cases, yes. If you’re sore or your denture isn’t sitting right, call us—waiting usually makes it harder.
