2. Come in for an Examination: When you arrive at our office, you’ll be immediately taken back to one of our exam rooms and seen by our emergency dentist in Westborough. We may capture X-rays, and our emergency dentist will conduct a visual examination to diagnose the issue at hand.
3. Get Treated: Once a diagnosis has been made, our team will walk you through our recommended treatment plan and a detailed cost estimate.

In any case, we’ll make sure you’re not in pain when you leave our office!

The Most Common Dental Emergencies

When you experience a dental emergency, one of the first things you should do is call us so we can provide you with professional care. Before your dental appointment, however, there may also be a few things you can do on your own to lessen your pain and minimize the damage to your oral health. We’ll provide you with these details over the phone.

Understanding the Cost of Dental Emergencies

The cost of treating your dental emergency will depend on the exact nature of the problem at hand. For example, if you simply need an antibiotic prescription, it will cost less than if you require an extensive procedure, like a crown or root canal treatment. We will give you an upfront estimate of the cost of your treatment, and we will help you explore how financing and insurance could help you manage your financial obligation.
