If you have oral pain, don’t wait to call us, thinking that your tooth may feel better on its own. A tooth that is infected won’t resolve itself without treatment, and you could be risking the spread of your infection and even tooth loss.
If you are not sure your situation is an emergency, call us anyway. We’re happy to assess your condition over the phone and help you determine if you need immediate attention.
We also recommend that you call us before heading to an emergency room. Most hospitals don’t handle tooth emergencies, and you could save time and money by calling Woodside Dental Group first.
If your emergency takes place after hours, please don’t hesitate to call us at (907) 333-1211. We have after-hours instructions that will help you get the relief you need.
If you are having tooth pain, call our office immediately! Often patients try to “wait it out,” hoping that their toothache subsides, and end up spending more money and time in pain as a result. Give us a call at your first sign of discomfort to help avoid costly complications and future problems.
If your gums are hurting, begin to swell, or if you notice a small bump on your gums, give us a call right away! These are common signs of an abscess (infection) and it is very important to address this immediately to help prevent any worsening of the infection.
If you chip or break your tooth it is vital you get into the office as soon as possible. After a tooth has broken once it is very susceptible to breaking again, costing you more money and creating added discomfort.
If you are experiencing discomfort as a result of a missing filling or crown you can apply clove oil (available at the pharmacy or grocery store) to help relieve the pain. You can also place tooth wax or dental adhesive (available at your local pharmacy) as a temporary solution. Don’t forget to bring your lost filling or crown to your appointment!
Time is of the essence when you have had a tooth knocked out or loosened. Getting to the dentist in a timely manner (30-60 minutes) can make the difference between saving and losing your tooth. It is important to try not to touch the tooth’s root and to handle the tooth gently. Rinse the avulsed tooth with water and place it in a container with milk (best option) or salt-water (if no milk is available).
Small nicks are likely to heal themselves, but if you have a large cut or excessive bleeding go to the emergency room as soon as possible. Applying a cold compress and warm salt-water rinses can help speed up the healing time.

We have a $200 emergency fee in addition to services rendered required to be paid at time of service. If you have dental insurance we will take all of your information to bill the procedures the next business day. When payment comes in, usually 4-6 weeks, we will issue back a check to you for the amount benefit that your insurance covered as if we used it on the day of service. Please note, the emergency fee is not a billable service.
Because you are being seen after hours, our team of insurance specialists are not available to verify your insurance. Therefore it is our policy to have all services paid the day it was rendered.
Unfortunately no. We verify all insurance prior to any appointment in order to analyze if it is active and assess how much benefit you have. We do this in order to present an accurate treatment plan that would show how much copay, or patient financial responsibility, you would have for whatever treatment you wish to get.
Yes, Medicaid does cover an extraction, limited exam, and x-ray at 100%. Payment has to be made at time of service because we don’t have the staff available after hours to verify if it is active.
The breakdown for our office fee for an extraction is below
$200.00 – Emergency after hours fee
$51.00 – Xray
$135.00 – Limited exam
$455.00 – Surgical extraction
$841 – Total fee for emergency extraction after hours appointment
Yes we do! You can apply online with our third party financing company, Sunbit. We use this company because it doesn’t ding your credit when you apply online and their approval rate is the highest we have found. So even if you have bad credit we would still recommend you see if you are approved. There is no risk in trying.
We do not turn anyone away due to a busy schedule. If you are in pain, we will see you, but you may have to wait as a courtesy to our scheduled patients.
