Dr. Patel was great, as well as the entire team. They managed to get me in last minute despite not having an appointment and helped ease my tooth pain. I’ve been several times in the past and will continue to visit!

Damascus Dental gave me a wonderful experience for my replacement crown. Dr. Patel and his staff worked like a cohesive team and used the latest technology (take three D pictures instead of molds for my tooth) to quickly take care of my tooth. Thumbs up!

They have great customer service! Far better then any other dentist I have been to. Along with that they get everything done at a very professional manor. I haven’t had any pain when they are working on my teeth and the operations go very smoothly when I have gone in. Overall I am very satisfied with them and recommend this dentist to anyone who is looking for a great all around company!

I had a great experience at Dr. Patel's office. The staff were incredible and made me feel very comfortable. I have a huge fear of the dentist and they went out of their way to make me feel better. Dr. Patel was very nice and had great bedside manners. I can't stress how amazing the staff is and I will definitely recommend this office to anyone.

I have avoided dentists for years due to bad experiences years ago. I decided to give Dr. Patel a try and I am so glad I did! The staff (all staff) are pleasant and helpful from assisting with insurance down to ensuring your comfort and understanding of whatever procedure they are doing or going to do. They listen, they care... Glad I didn't wait any longer to get my teeth worked on and our paths crossed. 10 Stars!!!

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does emergency dental care cost?

The cost of emergency dental care can vary depending on the specific treatment needed. It's best to contact your dentist for an evaluation and discussion of the associated costs. Our office offers flexible payment options and works with dental insurance plans to help make emergency care affordable.

Can dental emergencies be prevented?

While some dental emergencies are unavoidable, many can be prevented with good oral hygiene practices and regular dental check-ups. Avoid chewing on hard objects, wear protective mouthguards during sports activities, and maintain a healthy lifestyle to reduce the risk of dental emergencies.

What if I have a dental emergency while traveling?

If you experience a dental emergency while traveling, reach out to local dental clinics or emergency hotlines for assistance. They can provide guidance, recommend nearby dentists specializing in emergencies, or arrange an appointment for you.

What should I do if I have a dental abscess?

Dental abscesses are serious infections that require immediate attention. Rinse your mouth with saltwater, take over-the-counter pain relievers if necessary, and contact your dentist promptly. Avoid applying heat or placing aspirin directly on the affected area, as it can worsen the infection.

How can I manage dental pain before seeing a dentist?

To manage dental pain before seeing an emergency dentist, you can rinse your mouth with warm saltwater, use over-the-counter pain relievers (following the instructions), apply a cold compress to the affected area, and avoid chewing on the painful side.

Is a toothache considered a dental emergency?

Toothaches can vary in intensity, but if the pain is severe and persistent, it may be a sign of an underlying dental problem that requires immediate attention. Contact your emergency dentist to discuss your symptoms and determine the appropriate course of action.

Can I go to the emergency room for a dental emergency?

While emergency rooms can provide initial pain relief and address certain oral injuries, they may not have specialized dental equipment or expertise to provide comprehensive dental care. It is advisable to seek emergency dental care from a dentist who specializes in handling dental emergencies.

What should I do if my tooth is knocked out?

If your tooth is knocked out, handle it carefully by the crown (top part), avoiding touching the root. Rinse it gently with water if dirty, but do not scrub or remove any tissue fragments. Try to reinsert the tooth into its socket, or place it in a container of milk or saliva and bring it to your emergency dentist immediately.

When should I seek emergency dental care?

It is crucial to seek emergency dental care as soon as possible if you experience severe or persistent tooth pain, facial swelling, bleeding, a knocked-out tooth, a broken tooth, or any other dental emergency. Prompt treatment increases the chances of successful outcomes.

What is considered a dental emergency?

A dental emergency refers to any dental issue that requires immediate attention to alleviate pain, save a tooth, or prevent further complications. Common examples include severe toothaches, knocked-out teeth, broken teeth, abscesses, and oral injuries.
