Same-Day Dentist in NYC

Everyone has a different response to emergencies—panicking, feeling frozen, getting overwhelmed. This can make it hard to know what to do. We eliminate the guesswork. For urgent dental situations, all you need to do is contact Village Dental. Our emergency dentistry services can take care of unexpected oral health scenarios, from abscessed teeth to bleeding gums.

Emergency Dentist New York City

If you’re currently experiencing a dental emergency, call us right away at 212-674-2024 to schedule. Village Dental offers same-day appointments so that you can get in to see us right away. Just let us know that you have an urgent dental situation, and our staff can put you on the schedule.

Our team will also provide you with instructions on what to do until you can be seen. Some general pieces of advice:

To Control Bleeding: If you’re experiencing excessive bleeding, you can control it by applying pressure with a clean cloth or gauze to the area.
For Lost Teeth: If you lost a tooth, pick it up by the crown, not the roots, and place it in a container of milk or saliva to keep it moist until we can reimplant it at our office.
To Manage Pain: Over-the-counter pain relievers and ice can help alleviate pain until you can see us at our Union Square emergency dental clinic.

Infected Tooth Extractions

Sometimes, repairing a tooth won’t solve your problem, especially if damage or decay has advanced into an infection. We encounter this with impacted wisdom teeth, tooth abscesses, or fractures or cavities that were left to linger too long. That tooth has to go. Fortunately, we are equipped to perform an emergency tooth extraction in our NYC clinic. Our gentle extraction process gets rid of the tooth with minimal discomfort and less time in the chair.

We don’t leave it at that. Pulling a tooth is just the first step in getting you back to health. We can treat any other symptoms of infection after the extraction. Once you’re feeling better, Village Dental works on rehabilitating your smile. We can perform bone grafting if you’ve experienced bone loss to make sure you can get implants. We also provide custom dentures and dental bridges to replace what you lost without compromising on aesthetics or comfort.

Generally speaking, if you’re in serious pain or have bleeding that won’t stop, those symptoms qualify as an emergency. More specifically, the following are all reasons to reach out to Village Dental for immediate care:

Toothaches and Jaw Pain: Cavities, infections, cracked teeth, or TMJ/TMD can all be culprits. Our team can assess the cause of your pain and alleviate it.
Broken or Chipped Teeth: Sports injuries, hard foods, and accidents are common culprits. Our dentists repair and restore fractured teeth with dental fillings or crowns.
Knocked-out Teeth: If you have a tooth knocked out due to an accident or injury, our team can reimplant it if you act quickly.
Lost Restorations: If a filling, crown, bridge, or other restorative dental work falls out, our team can provide a temporary solution and follow-up with a permanent replacement.
Abscessed Tooth: This is a serious dental emergency that requires immediate attention. Contact us if you experience swelling, pus, fever, or other signs of infection.
Broken Braces or Wires: Our dental clinic can provide temporary solutions until you can see your orthodontist for a permanent fix.
Gum Bleeding or Injuries: Advanced gum disease, foreign objects getting lodged in the gums, or trauma injuries are all reasons to seek out our emergency periodontal care.
