Emergency Walk-In Care
Dental emergencies may include conditions in which bleeding, pain, swelling, or trauma exists; the goal of emergency treatment is to alleviate pain immediately and deal with acute problems such as infection and trauma.

What to Expect:

Your first appointment will be a three-hour appointment during which a student dentist, under the supervision of faculty, will complete a thorough dental examination to determine your specific needs. In addition to this examination, we will also take X-rays and possibly take models of your teeth. The provider will also collect a detailed medical history.

If time allows, we will give you a complete treatment plan at this first appointment. Otherwise, the plan will be completed at the next visit along with a cleaning. Once a plan is agreed to, we can schedule an appointment to begin treatment.
