Your Reliable Emergency Dentist in South San Jose, CA
What Is a Dental Emergency?
A dental emergency is an unexpected problem or injury needing immediate care. Not all dental issues are emergencies. However, if the pain does not get better even with medication, bleeding does not stop, or your tooth has been damaged or dislodged, you should seek emergency dental care as soon as possible. The sooner your situation receives attention, the sooner you can find relief, and the more likely you can receive successful treatment to save and restore your smile.
Our Comprehensive Dental Emergency Services in San Jose, CA
Our dental office provides various dental treatments and procedures for patients who need emergency dental care. Our emergency dentist in San Jose will do everything possible to soothe the pain or discomfort and preserve your smile. We offer same-day appointments during our open hours.

Some of the dental emergency services we offer include:
For patients with dental infections that cause severe pain, our emergency dentist may recommend root canal therapy to eliminate the pain and save your tooth. During the root canal process, the infected blood vessels, tissues, and nerves in the inner tooth and root will be removed, eliminating the pain and discomfort. This alleviates infection while keeping your functional tooth structure intact.
Our dentists will do everything possible to save your natural tooth structure. However, in cases where a tooth can't be saved or is repeatedly infected, an extraction may be needed to restore your dental health. Furthermore, removing a damaged tooth will help prevent further complications and future dental problems. Our dentist will provide a gentle extraction to alleviate your pain and discuss restoration options for your smile.
Our dentists strive to restore the fullness and appearance of your smile, regardless of your dental emergency. If your tooth is damaged or a crown or filling has come loose, we'll do all we can to address the situation. We'll attempt to restore any damaged or dislodged restorations, and can replace them if they can't be fixed.
