Emergency Dentist in Chattanooga, TN
Dental emergency in Chattanooga? Same-day appointments for toothaches, broken or fractured teeth, and lost fillings. Walk-ins welcome. Call (423) 415-1421 now.
Dental pain and trauma shouldn't have to wait. We prioritize urgent cases and work hard to get you seen as quickly as possible — often the same day. Our goal is simple: get you out of pain and back to your life fast, with the right treatment the first time.
When you call, we'll ask a few quick questions, give you clear guidance for the meantime, and get you on the schedule. Digital and panoramic X-rays let us find the source of the problem right away, so treatment can start at the same visit whenever possible.
If you're in pain right now, don't wait it out — toothaches and fractures almost always get worse without treatment. Call (423) 415-1421 and we'll do everything we can to see you today.

Emergency Care FAQs
Can you really see me the same day?
In most cases, yes. We hold time for urgent cases Monday through Thursday and prioritize patients in pain. Call as early in the day as you can and we'll do our best to see you today.
What should I do for a bad toothache until my appointment?
Rinse with warm salt water, use over-the-counter pain relief as directed, and apply a cold compress outside the cheek. Avoid placing aspirin directly on the gums — it burns the tissue.
My tooth broke but doesn't hurt. Is it still an emergency?
It's still urgent. A fractured tooth can expose the inner tooth to bacteria, and what starts painless can become an infection. Getting it evaluated quickly usually means simpler, less expensive treatment.
What about emergencies on a weekend?
Our office is open Monday through Thursday. For severe swelling, uncontrolled bleeding, or trauma outside those hours, go to the nearest emergency room — then call us for follow-up care.
