Emergency Dental Care FAQs

Does my insurance cover dental emergencies?

Insurance plans vary on a case by case basis regarding whether or not they cover urgent dental care. When you call us for your emergency appointment (or even during your regular dental visit), we can look into your insurance coverage for you!

Should I visit the hospital for a dental emergency?

If you have experienced trauma to the head or neck, have severe bleeding, or other bodily trauma, we recommend that you visit the emergency room or your general physician ASAP before coming to us, even if your smile is also damaged.

Is it okay to pull a loose tooth myself?

If your child has a loose baby tooth, it is generally okay to pull it. However, if you or your child has a loose adult tooth, do not pull it. Please contact our office right away and we can help you preserve your adult tooth and prevent it from falling completely out.

Today was my first visit at Sedro Woolley Smiles Dental for what I considered an emergency. They saw me one day after I contacted them! Every employee was pleasant and professional! Dr. Wilkinson was very thorough, explaining my options and answering my questions. I'm looking forward to continuing with this clinic!

I was appreciative that they were open during this difficult time. I had to have emergency dental work and was very nervous due to bad dental experiences in the past. The dentist was reassuring and made sure I was completely numb before proceeding. He calmed me by explaining everything as he completed each phase of the project. I was pleasantly surprised as there was no pain and everything was quick and easy. After Covid, I plan on returning to them for my regular dental checkups. I am no longer fearful of dental appointments. They also used the proper protective equipment and preventive measures to ensure my safety as well as theirs.

This amazing dental staff works like a well oiled machine. They work very efficiently as a team while providing compassion and skill throughout whatever procedure I have had done there. They are fast and no need to worry about discomfort as they have the patients best interest at heart. I always leave with a smile.
