Questions about emergency dental care

General answers. Ask the dentist about your own case.

When should I go to the hospital instead of a dentist?

Go to a hospital emergency department or call 911 for swelling that affects breathing or swallowing, bleeding that will not stop, or an injury to the jaw or face. For a toothache, a chipped or broken tooth, or a lost filling or crown, call a dentist.

Can I be seen the same day?

Often, if you call early. Many dentists leave time for emergencies each day, but it is not guaranteed. Describe your problem when you call so the office can judge how soon you need to be seen.

How much does an emergency dental visit cost?

It depends on the exam, X-rays and any treatment you need. We do not have prices for these offices, so ask when you call. Dental plans through work often cover part of the cost, and the Canadian Dental Care Plan covers eligible residents for some services.

How does ClinicFinder know a dentist offers this?

We read each dentist's own website and list it here only when the site names emergency dental care. Services change, so call to confirm before you book.
