If you are experiencing dental pain or an urgent oral issue in Calgary, knowing where to turn can make all the difference. We provide emergency dental care for Calgary and nearby northeast Calgary communities, including Cornerstone, Cornerbrook, Redstone, Skyview Ranch, Cityscape, and Livingston.

What is a Dental Emergency?

Dental emergencies include issues that require prompt attention to relieve pain, control infection, or prevent further damage. These can range from severe toothaches and chipped teeth to knocked-out teeth or serious gum infections. If you are in doubt, contact us at 403-300-4444 or visit us at 420-425, 3870 Cornerstone Blvd NE, Calgary, AB T3N 2E8 and we can help assess your situation.

Who Can Get Emergency Dental Care?

We welcome new patients and emergency walk-ins whenever possible, making support accessible to everyone in northeast Calgary and surrounding neighbourhoods.

Same-Day Appointments and Walk-Ins

Emergencies don’t wait and neither do we. Our team is ready to offer same-day emergency dental care when possible, just call to let us know you’re coming or walk in if you are nearby. While we strive to see emergencies on the same day, we recommend calling ahead to check availability and get immediate advice.

What to Expect at Your Emergency Visit

When you arrive, we listen first. Tell us your concerns, history, and goals. We may take x-rays or scans if needed to fully understand the problem. We explain your options clearly and give you a transparent estimate so you always know what comes next. No work begins until you have all the information and make your choice.

We use gentle hands, modern technology, and can offer sedation if you prefer. You stay in control and comfortable throughout your visit. Our approach is designed to minimize stress and ensure your care experience is as smooth as possible.

Appointments are usually confirmed within a few hours after you request a visit, ensuring you get rapid care when you need it.

Common Emergencies We Treat

  • Severe toothache We diagnose the issue, relieve pain, and create a treatment plan to solve the underlying cause.
  • Chipped or broken teeth We often repair these the same day with composite bonding, crowns, or veneers, depending on the extent of the break.
  • Knocked-out teeth Time-sensitive re-implantation is possible if you call us right away for instructions.
  • Loose or dislodged teeth Gentle stabilization gives your tooth the best chance to be saved.
  • Lost fillings or crowns We quickly re-cement or replace these to protect your tooth.
