Emergencies we treat at Vallejo Family Dentistry
A dental emergency is pain, swelling, bleeding or tooth damage that shouldn’t wait for a routine visit, like these:
Go to the ER first for a head or neck injury, trouble breathing or swallowing, bleeding that won’t stop or severe swelling.
Emergency repairs built around your natural tooth
We relieve the pain first, then save as much of your natural tooth as we can.
Costs upfront, monthly payments, new patients welcome.
How does a same-day visit work?
Emergency visits follow three steps.
-
Call and describe your symptoms
Tell us what happened and where it hurts.
-
Come in
We’ll see you right away or book the soonest opening that day.
-
Relief first, then a plan you understand
We treat the pain, then walk you through your x-rays and options.
What to do before you arrive
A few first-aid steps can protect the tooth until your visit.
Free second opinions before you decide
A free second opinion shows you where a tooth stands and the options for it, including the most conservative one. It can help if you’ve been told you need extensive work, or if a crown or filling keeps coming loose. Visits take place in our Vallejo office, with no pressure to book.
Costs and coverage for emergency care
We explain the cost of emergency treatment before we start.
Dental Care Without Stress or Judgment
We’re proud of the long-lasting results and the happy smiles that tell our story best.
Frequently asked questions
-
Can I see an emergency dentist in Vallejo today?
Yes, whenever the schedule allows. As a Vallejo emergency dentist, we work to fit urgent patients in the same day after a call about their symptoms, first-time patients included. We’re open Monday to Friday, 9am to 5pm, at 23 Rotary Way, a short drive from Glen Cove, Mare Island, Benicia and American Canyon.
-
How much does an emergency dental visit cost?
It depends on the treatment, and we’ll explain your cost once we’ve seen the tooth, before any work begins. We file your PPO claim and let you know what to expect back from your plan. CareCredit, Cherry and Sunbit offer monthly payments, and our savings plan from $35 a month takes 10% off treatment.
-
Can you save a cracked or infected tooth?
Often, yes. A root canal can clear an infection from inside the tooth, and a crown can hold a cracked tooth together. If we can’t save the tooth, CBCT imaging helps us plan its removal, and we’ll talk through replacing it with a bridge, a denture or a dental implant.
-
My tooth stopped hurting. Do I still need to come in?
Yes. Pain that fades after days of aching can mean the nerve inside the tooth has died while an infection keeps spreading. Call our Vallejo office for an exam and x-rays, especially if you notice swelling, a bad taste or a bump on the gum, since early treatment usually takes less work.
-
What should I do if my crown falls off?
Keep the crown, bring it with you, and skip super glue, which can damage the crown and the tooth. The tooth underneath can be sensitive or weak without its cover, so chew on the other side until we see you. If a crown or filling keeps coming loose, ask about a free second opinion.
