At Precision Dental of Westminster, we understand that a dental emergency can’t wait. That’s why we make every effort to provide same-day emergency treatment for urgent oral health issues—getting you out of pain and back to function as quickly as possible.
From the moment you call, your emergency becomes our top priority. We hold openings in our schedule specifically for urgent care, triage your case promptly, and strive to see you on the same day you reach out (when feasible).
A variety of oral health issues warrant urgent same-day attention, including:
These issues can escalate swiftly—what begins as discomfort may turn into infection, bone damage, or systemic risk if delayed.
When you contact us with an emergency, we triage your symptoms immediately to assess severity, pain level, and risk of infection. We may ask:
That information helps us prioritize your visit.
We reserve “emergency slots” daily for new or existing patients. Based on severity, our team will aim to allot you a same-day appointment, even if that means re-adjusting the schedule.
When you arrive, we act swiftly:
This enables precise diagnosis, fast.
Depending on the diagnosis, we’ll initiate treatment the same day whenever possible:
If complete restoration isn’t feasible in one visit, we’ll stabilize your condition and schedule follow-ups.
Post-treatment, our team monitors healing, manages discomfort, and plans any additional care (e.g., permanent crown placement, implant planning). We maintain open communication so you always know what to expect.
These principles align with professional standards of emergency dentistry and patient care.
