Emergency dentistry

When a tooth cannot wait.

A sudden toothache, a broken tooth, or a crown that came off on a trip should not have to wait for a routine opening. Call Meridian Dental Studio in Scottsdale. We will help you triage the problem and, whenever our schedule allows, see you the same day.
If you have trouble breathing or swallowing, facial trauma with heavy bleeding, or you feel faint and unwell, seek emergency medical care or call 911 first. A dental studio is not a substitute for a hospital emergency department in a medical crisis. The phone number on this page is fictional and part of a showcase demo.

Who this is for

Call us first if you have

A persistent or swelling toothache; a cracked, chipped, or broken tooth; a crown, veneer, or filling that has come off; a tooth knocked loose or knocked out; pain after a recent visit that is getting worse; or swelling in the face or gums.

What we offer

Care, itemized.

Same-day visits

When the schedule allows, reserved first for pain, swelling, and broken teeth.

Relief and stabilization

The first goal is to make you comfortable and protect the tooth, even if final work is planned later.

Lost crown or veneer

Recementation when the tooth and restoration are still in good condition.

Guidance by phone

If we cannot see you immediately, we will tell you how to protect the area overnight.

Knocked-out teeth

Time matters. We will give you clear steps while you travel in.

Visitors welcome

If you are in Scottsdale and in pain, call anyway. If we cannot see you, we will tell you quickly.

While you reach us

A few calm steps help.

Toothache. Rinse with warm water. Avoid putting aspirin against the gum. Use a cold pack on the cheek if it is swollen. Broken tooth. Rinse, save any fragments in clean milk or saliva, and avoid chewing on that side.
Lost crown. Keep the crown safe and call us before experimenting for long. Knocked-out adult tooth. Hold it by the crown (the chewing surface), gently rinse if dirty, and try to place it back in the socket or keep it in milk. These are general first-aid notes, not a diagnosis.

Questions

Questions patients often ask.

We try to help anyone in genuine pain when we have an opening. Current patients are easier to treat because we already have records, but you should still call.
Not always. Emergency care often means comfort and protection first, then a planned visit to finish the work properly.
Call us anyway. If we cannot see you, we will tell you so quickly so you can find another option.

Ready when you are.

Request a new-patient visit or a consult. Tell us what is on your mind — a routine cleaning, a cosmetic question, or a tooth that cannot wait.
