24/7 Emergency Dental Health Whenever You Need It

You can’t always anticipate a dental emergency. Many dentists are not open on the weekend, and their answering service may instruct you to call back on Monday. If you have an emergency and can’t wait to get the help you need, you need to find a weekend emergency dentist who can take a look as soon as possible.

At Emergency Dental Service, we can help you find a dentist’s office open on Saturday or Sunday in your area to give you dental assistance as soon as it is needed. We can help connect you with someone to handle smaller issues, like a toothache, and larger problems, such as a root canal. Our team will work quickly and efficiently to come up with a solution and an individualized care plan. We are ready to help you when you need us most.

What is a Dental Emergency?

A dental emergency is a situation that requires immediate attention from a dentist. Sudden pain in your mouth is an emergency, and it could potentially lead to infection if not treated quickly. If you've been in an accident and suffered damage to your mouth or teeth, you may also be experiencing pain and swelling that requires immediate attention from a dentist.

Some common yet painful dental emergencies include:

  • Toothache
  • Cracked, broken, or chipped tooth
  • Losing a permanent tooth
  • Jaw or mouth injury
  • Root canals
  • Tissue Injury
  • Bleeding
  • Lost filling or sealant
  • Denture Issues

When you experience a dental emergency, time is of the essence. Don’t put off getting care, contact
Emergency Dental Service at: 1-833-624-1382 or visit our provider coverage area page to get a
weekend dental appointment as soon as possible.

Why Do You Need a Dentist Who Is Open on the Weekends?

Almost everyone is busy during the work week. While some people can get some time off from their jobs to visit the dentist, others don’t have the same option. Using a dentist open on Saturdays or Sundays gives you the flexibility to get a checkup or emergency work done when it’s convenient for you.

Perhaps the most obvious reason for having a weekend dentist is for dental emergencies. Since most dentists do not work outside of standard office hours, getting an appointment before Monday means contacting an emergency dentist. Dental emergencies often involve excruciating pain and difficulty with doing basic tasks, like eating and drinking. It is very important to deal with those issues as soon as possible.

How Do I Find a Dentist Open Near Me on the Weekends?

When you’re dealing with tooth pain or some other dental emergency, getting help fast is the key. Speak with Emergency Dental Service, and we can handle finding a dentist for you. We’ll tell you where the nearest emergency dentist in our network is and help you schedule an appointment as soon as possible. Our network of dentists will be happy to evaluate your problem and recommend the best course of treatment.

What Services Do Weekend Dentists Typically Offer?

The dental offices in our network offer a full range of emergency services including root canals and extractions. Some of the most common emergency services you may see from a Saturday dentist or a Sunday dentist include:

  • Chipped tooth. A chipped tooth is a health risk and could negatively impact your smile. While the procedure itself shouldn’t be difficult for your dentist, it is best to take care of the issue as soon as possible. Schedule an appointment as soon as you can, and keep the partial tooth in warm water before your appointment.
  • Tooth extraction. While a dentist will try to do everything they can to preserve and save a tooth that’s suffered damage, there may be no other option than to extract the tooth. This process can be somewhat complicated and requires immediate action. If you need a dentist for a tooth extraction on short notice, a weekend dentist may be your only option.
  • Abscessed tooth. If there’s an infection around the tooth and gums, dentists call this an abscessed tooth. You should have a dentist look at any abscesses as soon as you can, as they can take around two weeks to fully recover from.

Best Way to Book an Appointment With a Weekend Dentist

If you’re already dealing with a toothache, the annoyance of trying to book an appointment can seemingly only add to the pain. Failing to find a dentist near you who works on the weekend and can take your appointment can not only lead to frustration but could also lead to your condition worsening.

The easiest way to get into contact with a weekend dentist is to allow Emergency Dental Service to handle the problem. Our team is available 24/7 to connect you with a dentist open on weekends who can handle your situation.

You can find a dentist using our website or by giving Emergency Dental Service a call. You can find any dentists in your area who are in our network and have availability who can see you on the weekend.

What Will My Weekend Dentist Appointment Look Like?

A weekend dentist appointment will look quite similar to any other visit for an emergency service at the dentist. One big difference, however, is the likelihood that you will spend less time waiting for service, as there will generally be fewer people seeking dental service on the weekend.

Your dentist will likely start the procedure by performing an examination to get an idea of what the problem is. You should also explain the kind of pain you’re feeling to your dentist so they know what to look for. You may be able to avoid the need for X-rays if the problem is visible to the naked eye.

Your emergency dentist will make a professional judgment on what to do about your issue. The type of treatment depends on the severity of your condition. They typically have two options in front of them: temporary pain relief or fixing the underlying cause of your pain. While every dentist wishes they could cure the underlying problem immediately, this isn’t always possible on an initial visit. The dental team will assess your situation and give you the best treatment possible and help remedy your issue quickly.

What Are Some Things I Should Know About a Weekend Dentist?

Depending on the setup of the emergency dentist, they may only be able to help you buy time until they can get prepped for a more in-depth visit. For something simple like a chipped tooth, your dentist will likely fix the problem during your visit, but more difficult procedures like root canals may require a follow-up before resolving the problem.

If you need a follow-up visit, your dentist should help you set up the next appointment, whether with them or someone else who can better handle the issues you’re experiencing.

What Does a Weekend Dentist Do?

Weekend dentists perform the same tasks as traditional dentists but offer a more flexible schedule for their clients. You can schedule an appointment with them for a time that’s more convenient for you, and they can handle a regular checkup or a dental emergency.

If you’ve never dealt with a dental emergency, you may not realize how stressful the process can be. Even if you tell a dentist you’re in serious pain, they may not be able to fit you in for a few weeks. During this time, you may have difficulty eating, drinking, or sleeping, with no relief in sight. A weekend dentist should be more available and see you on shorter notice than some other practices.
