Understanding the Cost of Dental Emergencies 

Since dental emergencies come in all shapes and sizes, the only way to get an accurate estimate of cost is to see you for an evalyation. Fortunately, you’ll be happy to hear that emergency exams themselves are relatively inexpensive. Plus, many of the services used to treat dental emergencies receive some form of coverage from dental insurance. We’ll be happy to help you review your benefits and go over other options for making your care affordable, such as our in-house membership plan.

How to Prevent Dental Emergencies

While some dental emergencies can’t be avoided, there are some things you can do that can reduce your risk of experiencing one. A few simple precautions and healthy habits can go a tremendously long way in preventing broken teeth and painful toothaches! A few of the most important steps we recommend taking include:

  • Brush and floss your teeth every day
  • Eat a nutritious diet
  • Wear a mouthguard or nightguard
  • Don’t use your teeth as tools
  • Visit us every six months for regular checkups and cleanings
