Your Situation Counts
Is It a Dental Emergency?
If You're In Pain — Yes.
Don't wait to find out if it's "bad enough" to call. Here's what we treat same-day:
🦷
Toothache or Severe Tooth Pain
Throbbing, sharp, or constant pain — whether it came on suddenly or has been building for days.
💥
Broken, Chipped, or Cracked Tooth
Especially if the edge is sharp, the tooth is sensitive, or you can feel exposed pulp.
🔴
Knocked-Out Tooth
Call immediately — time matters. Keep the tooth moist and come straight in.
👑
Lost or Broken Crown or Bridge
Exposes the vulnerable tooth underneath. The tooth can deteriorate quickly without protection.
🩸
Abscess or Facial Swelling
Can spread fast. If your face or jaw is swollen, call us now — this needs same-day attention.
🦴
Loose or Displaced Tooth
Injury-related loosening or movement — come in before it gets worse or falls out entirely.
🩹
Post-Extraction Pain or Bleeding
Bleeding or pain that won't stop after an extraction may signal dry socket or infection.
❓
Not Sure? Call Anyway.
If it's affecting eating or keeping you up at night — call us. We'll help you decide over the phone.

★★★★★
"I was a walk-in with a toothache. Staff was so warm and welcoming. Doctor was very professional and made me feel so comfortable. Excellent chairside manner. I highly recommend A to Z!!"
★★★★★
"I had a very complicated case, but she knew exactly what to do. If you need any work done that's going to last for years I recommend this dentist. She informed me on my best options — unlike other dentists who only mentioned pulling the tooth."

Yes — walk-ins are welcome at both our Richton Park and Flossmoor locations. Calling ahead (708-481-2288 or 708-957-2030) is the fastest way to confirm same-day availability, but if you're in severe pain, come in.

What counts as a dental emergency?+
Any dental situation causing pain, affecting eating or sleep, or involving bleeding, swelling, or a broken tooth. When in doubt, call us — we'll help you assess over the phone.
