Understanding the Cost of Emergency Dentistry

Our team can walk you through the relevant price factors, like dental insurance, to help it fit your budget. To learn more about the cost of dental emergencies, please call us or book a consultation.

Every Dental Emergency is Different – This Is Why
In short, there are multiple factors that need to be considered – from the type of dental injury and the severity of the damage to the treatment needed. That’s why we can’t provide you with an estimate of the cost here; you’ll need to consult Dr. Samia so he can narrow down your expenses. From there, our team will help you navigate the financial side of your care by reviewing our affordable payment options and answering any questions you have about the price.
Does Dental Insurance Cover Dental Emergencies?
You might be surprised, but many dental insurance providers DO cover a portion of the cost. In fact, they may cover upwards of 80% of the cost of the restorative care you need! So, it’s definitely worth taking a look at your plan to familiarize yourself with your benefits.
Need help understanding and utilizing your coverage? Good news: we work with many of the nation’s leading providers, including Ameritas, Cigna, MetLife, Delta Dental, and United Healthcare. We’d be happy to take a look at your plan, provide you with an estimate of your out-of-pocket expenses, and even handle the paperwork!

How Taking Care Of Your Smile Can Save You Money
Unfortunately, cavities, gum disease, and other common oral health problems don’t get better with time. Quite the opposite: they get worse, wreaking havoc on the look, health, and function of your smile in the process. For this reason, it’s crucial that you call us when you first notice that something is wrong – whether it’s pain when biting down or persistent sensitivity. The earlier we can intervene, the more likely it is we will be able to treat the root of the problem without extensive or costly care.
How to Prevent Dental Emergencies
Though you can’t always stop them, you can reduce your risk of having dental emergencies. Simply use the following tips and tricks:
- Brush your teeth twice daily with a soft-bristled toothbrush and fluoride toothpaste.
- At least once a day, floss between your teeth.
- See your dentist every six months for cleanings and checkups.
- Always wear an athletic mouthguard when you play sports.
- Don’t use your teeth as tools; use the appropriate equipment.
