Do You Need Your Wisdom Teeth Removed?
Not every set of wisdom teeth needs to come out right away, but ignoring the warning signs can lead to bigger problems. Signs it's time for an evaluation include jaw pain or stiffness, swollen or tender gums near the back of your mouth, pressure or crowding in your other teeth, and recurring headaches near your jaw. Left untreated, impacted or misaligned wisdom teeth can cause infection, cysts, and damage to nearby teeth.
At Urgent Dental Care of Houston, we make it simple to find out where you stand. Schedule your $89 consultation and X-ray today.

What can I do to manage dental pain until I see a dentist?
Over-the-counter pain relievers can temporarily alleviate discomfort, but avoid placing aspirin or any painkiller directly against the gums, as this can burn the gum tissue. Applying a cold compress to the face near the affected area can also reduce swelling and pain. Contact us as soon as possible to address the underlying issue.
How quickly can I see a dentist in an emergency?
Urgent Dental Care of Houston prioritizes rapid response to dental emergencies. We strive to accommodate same-day appointments and offer walk-in services to ensure you receive timely, expert care. Our flexible scheduling, including after-hours and weekend availability, ensures you're never left waiting in pain.
What should I do if I have a knocked-out tooth?
Time is critical in saving a knocked-out tooth. Handle the tooth by the crown, not the root, and rinse it gently without scrubbing. If possible, reinsert the tooth into the socket and hold it in place. If reinsertion isn't possible, keep the tooth moist in milk or saliva. Contact Urgent Dental Care of Houston immediately for further instructions and to schedule an emergency appointment.
Can I get emergency dental care without insurance?
Yes, at Urgent Dental Care of Houston, we believe that everyone deserves access to emergency dental care, regardless of insurance status. We offer a variety of payment options, including credit/debit cards, cash, and financing options like CareCredit, Sunbit, and Cherry, to ensure you can receive the care you need without delay.
How do I know if I need emergency dental care?
If you're experiencing significant oral pain, swelling, bleeding, or have suffered trauma to your mouth or teeth, you likely need emergency dental care. Symptoms such as acute sensitivity to hot or cold, difficulty biting, or a loose permanent tooth also warrant immediate attention.
What is considered a dental emergency?
A dental emergency involves any oral health issue that requires prompt attention from a dental professional to alleviate pain, prevent bleeding, or avoid severe health complications. Common emergencies include severe toothache, knocked-out teeth, broken or cracked teeth, abscesses, and infections.
