WHY IT MATTERS
Signs You Need an Emergency Dentist
Not every ache means you need to be seen right away, but some symptoms shouldn't wait. Call us if you notice any of the following:
- Sharp or throbbing tooth pain that won't go away
- A tooth that's been knocked out or badly loosened
- A cracked, chipped, or broken tooth
- Swelling in your face, gums, or jaw
- A lost filling or crown that leaves a tooth exposed
- Bleeding that doesn't stop after an injury
- A bump or sore on your gums that looks like an abscess
If you're not sure whether your symptoms count as an emergency, call our office. We'll ask a few quick questions and help you figure out the right next step.
YOUR VISIT
Why Cave Creek Families Trust Refined Smiles for Urgent Care
When you're in pain, you want a team that moves fast and treats you like a person, not a number. Patients tell us our office feels clean, modern, and welcoming from the moment they walk in, and that our team takes time to explain what's happening and what it will cost before any work begins. Dr. Madison Kapers, DMD, and the Refined Smiles team use technology like 3D CBCT imaging and same-day CEREC crowns to diagnose problems quickly and often fix them in a single visit instead of sending you home to wait. Beyond emergencies, our general dentistry services help catch small problems before they turn into urgent ones.
OUR APPROACH
What to Expect During Your Emergency Visit
When you arrive, we'll get you into a chair quickly and start with a focused exam. Depending on your symptoms, Dr. Kapers may take a digital X-ray or 3D scan to see exactly what's happening below the surface. From there, she'll walk you through what's causing the pain and the treatment options available to fix it, along with a clear idea of cost and insurance coverage. Our goal is always to get you out of pain as fast as possible, whether that means a same-visit fix or a plan for the days ahead.
Same-Day Appointments & Scheduling
We keep room in our schedule for dental emergencies, and most patients get seen the same day they call. Our office is open Monday through Thursday from 8am to 5pm and Friday from 8am to 12pm. Call as early in the day as you can so we have the best chance of fitting you in quickly, and let our team know your symptoms so we can prepare for your visit before you arrive.
GOOD TO KNOW
Common Dental Emergencies We Treat
Refined Smiles treats a wide range of urgent dental problems, right here in our Cave Creek office. Deep decay or infection that reaches the nerve often calls for root canal therapy to save the tooth and relieve pain. When a tooth is broken beyond repair or needs to come out for other reasons, we perform tooth extractions as gently as possible. A cracked or heavily damaged tooth can often be restored with a same-day crown instead of a temporary fix. Once your emergency is resolved, we'll recommend a follow-up visit for cleanings and exams to help keep your smile healthy going forward.
