Is It a Dental Emergency?
What’s happening | What to do |
Severe or throbbing toothache, a tooth that keeps you awake | Call us today for a same-day visit |
Swollen gum or face, a pimple-like bump on the gum, a bad taste | Call us today. Infections can spread. |
Knocked-out adult tooth | Call now and come in immediately. The first hour matters most. |
Broken, cracked or chipped tooth with pain | Call us today |
Lost crown or filling | Call us. Usually seen within a day or two. |

Hospital emergency rooms can help with dangerous swelling, trauma and bleeding, but most can’t treat the tooth itself. For tooth pain, infections and broken teeth, a dentist is the right place.
Emergencies We Treat
What to Do Before You Get Here
Knocked-out tooth
- Pick it up by the crown (the white part), not the root.
- If it’s dirty, rinse it briefly with milk or water. Don’t scrub it or use soap.
- If you can, gently push it back into the socket and bite on a clean cloth.
- If not, keep it in milk or inside your cheek. Don’t let it dry out.
- Come in right away. See the AAE’s knocked-out tooth guide.
Swelling or abscess
- Hold a cold pack on your cheek, 20 minutes on and 20 minutes off.
- Don’t use heat, and don’t try to pop or drain it.
- Take an over-the-counter pain reliever as directed.
Severe toothache
- Rinse with warm salt water and floss gently to remove trapped food.
- Take ibuprofen, alone or with acetaminophen, if it’s safe for you. The American Dental Association recommends this as the first choice for dental pain.
- Never put aspirin on the gum. It burns the tissue.
Broken tooth, lost crown or filling
- Rinse gently and save any pieces.
- Cover sharp edges or the exposed tooth with temporary dental cement from a pharmacy.
- Never use superglue.
Bleeding in the mouth
- Press firmly with clean gauze for 15 minutes without checking.
- If bleeding is still heavy after that, go to an emergency room.

- A focused exam and X-ray of the problem tooth.
- A clear explanation of what’s wrong and your options, including costs.
- Treatment the same day whenever possible, or a temporary fix and a plan for the rest.
- Follow-up to make sure you’re healing well.
Emergency Care for Adults and Teens
We treat adults of all ages, including patients who haven’t seen a dentist in years and those with implants, crowns, bridges or previous root canals. We also see older children and teens for dental injuries and emergencies. [CONFIRM THE YOUNGEST AGE YOU SEE. For toddlers and young children, name the pediatric dentist you refer to, if any.]
If you’re nervous, tell us. We go at your pace, explain everything before we do it and stop whenever you need a break.

Frequently Asked Questions
What counts as a dental emergency?
Severe pain, swelling, a knocked-out or broken tooth, a lost crown or filling that hurts, signs of infection such as a gum boil or fever, and injuries to the mouth. If you’re not sure, call us and we’ll tell you how urgent it is.
Can I get a same-day emergency appointment?
Usually, yes. Call as early in the day as you can and we’ll fit you in whenever the schedule allows.
Do you accept walk-in emergency patients?
Yes, during office hours. Calling on your way helps us prepare and shortens your wait.
Do I need to be an existing patient?
No. New patients with dental emergencies are welcome.
Is there a weekend or after-hours emergency dentist?
Call (310) 858-9212 and leave a message. If you have spreading swelling or trouble breathing, go to the ER.
Is there a weekend or after-hours dentist in Beverly Hills?
Dr. Massaband has treated emergency patients on weekends and after hours, as multiple patient reviews confirm. After-hours and weekend emergency access at Confidental Beverly Hills is based on case urgency and availability. Call (310) 858-9212 and leave a detailed voicemail describing your situation. Emergencies are reviewed and responded to as quickly as possible outside regular office hours.
Does urgent care or the ER treat toothaches?
They can give pain relief and antibiotics and help with dangerous swelling, but most can’t repair or treat the tooth. For tooth problems, see a dentist as soon as possible.
What should I do if my tooth gets knocked out?
Hold it by the crown, rinse briefly without scrubbing, and put it back in the socket if you can. Otherwise keep it in milk and come in right away. Time matters.
Can you treat a dental abscess the same day?
In most cases, yes. We relieve pressure, treat the tooth and give you a plan. Antibiotics are used only when the infection is spreading.
How much does an emergency dental visit cost?
An emergency exam with X-rays is typically $100 to $250. Treatment costs depend on what you need, and we give you an estimate before we start.
Do you see children for dental emergencies?
We see older children and teens for dental injuries and emergencies.
Can you help with a problem from dental work done elsewhere?
Yes. We regularly help patients with loose crowns, painful root canals, extraction problems and implant issues from other offices.
