Care

Emergency Dentistry in Alexandria, VA

Same-day appointments for pain, swelling, a broken tooth or a lost crown.

Call and describe what happened; we hold time each day to image the tooth, stop the pain and stabilise it before planning the rest.

Why it matters

Dental pain has a direction. It settles or it spreads, and swelling that reaches the jaw stops being a dental problem.

How we approach it

Call and describe what happened. Time is held each day to image the tooth, stop the pain and stabilise it; the definitive work is scheduled afterwards, when you are not making decisions in pain.

What this covers

  • Cracked, Broken or Knocked-Out Teeth
  • Severe Toothaches
  • Dental Abscesses
  • Dental Trauma
