Most dentists do not offer 24-hour office hours. However, dental providers within the EDS network offer extended hours outside of standard office hours to treat patients who are in need of urgent care.

Several dentists within the EDS network offer same-day emergency appointments, or they will schedule you for the next available appointment. Contacting our patient support team can help you connect with dentists in your area who can see you immediately.

For a knocked-out tooth, it is suggested that you see a dentist within two hours to save the tooth. Pick up the tooth by the top, or the crown, and avoid touching the roots. Rinse the tooth in water, but avoid scrubbing. Then, try placing the tooth back in its socket. If you are not able to, then place the tooth in milk or saliva. Bring this with you to the dentist.

A dentist may also give you pain relief options the same day that your tooth is removed.
