Same-day care for tooth pain, trauma, and urgent dental issues.

Dental Emergency? We’ve Got You.

Tooth pain can’t wait — and neither should you. At Elevated Dentistry in Walnut Creek, we offer same-day emergency dental care for everything from severe toothaches and chipped teeth to oral infections and knocked-out teeth.

Our compassionate, expert team is here to relieve pain, prevent complications, and help you feel better — fast. If you’re unsure whether your issue counts as an emergency, call us anyway. We’re happy to guide you.

What Counts as a Dental Emergency?

We provide urgent care for:

  • Severe tooth pain or swelling
  • Chipped, cracked, or broken teeth
  • Knocked-out or dislodged teeth
  • Infected or abscessed teeth
  • Lost fillings or crowns
  • Bleeding or oral injuries
  • Broken dentures or appliances
  • Post-operative complications or swelling

If you’re experiencing any of these symptoms, you need to be seen promptly — not only for relief, but to prevent bigger problems later on.

For trauma-related injuries, like a chipped or knocked-out tooth, visit our page on Traumatic Dental Injuries.

Same-Day Emergency Appointments Available

We leave room in our daily schedule for dental emergencies — because we know pain doesn’t follow a calendar. Whether you’re a new patient or existing one, we’ll do everything we can to get you in the same day.

    Take over-the-counter pain relief and avoid chewing on the affected side. Call us immediately.
  3. Broken tooth or crown?
    Save any fragments, avoid hot/cold foods, and avoid pressure on the area.

FAQs About Emergency Dental Care

What qualifies as a dental emergency?

Any situation involving pain, infection, trauma, or broken dental work that interferes with eating, sleeping, or daily life may be an emergency. When in doubt, call us.

Can you see me the same day?

Yes — we reserve time each day for emergency visits. Call us as early as possible for same-day availability.

Should I go to the ER for a dental emergency?

Hospitals typically don’t have dental providers. For tooth pain, swelling, or trauma, call a dentist first — especially if you’re not experiencing life-threatening symptoms.

What if I’m not a current patient?

No problem! We welcome new patients for emergency care and will make every effort to see you promptly.

How much will an emergency visit cost?

Costs vary based on treatment. We’ll explain fees before any work is done and accept most insurance plans, including MetLife for Kaiser physicians.
