Urgent Dental Care in Calgary
Sudden tooth pain, a damaged tooth, or a wisdom tooth causing problems should not have to wait weeks for an appointment. Royal Oak Smiles offers same day urgent dental care in NW Calgary, addressing painful or pressing dental issues quickly and comfortably.
About Urgent Dental Care
Urgent dental care covers situations that need prompt attention but are not necessarily life threatening emergencies, a painful tooth needing root canal treatment, or a wisdom tooth that has grown in at an angle and started causing pain or infection. At Royal Oak Smiles, we prioritize same day appointments for these situations, so you are not left waiting in pain.
Treatments We Offer
Root Canal Treatment
Root canal treatment removes infected or inflamed tissue from inside a tooth, relieving pain and saving your natural tooth rather than requiring extraction.
Wisdom Tooth Extraction
When a wisdom tooth becomes impacted, crowded, or infected, extraction prevents pain, infection, and damage to nearby teeth.
Signs You May Need Urgent Dental Care
- Persistent or severe tooth pain
- Swelling or tenderness in the gums or jaw
- Pain or pressure at the back of the jaw, often a sign of a problem wisdom tooth
- A tooth that is cracked, broken, or has a failing old filling
- Symptoms that have gradually worsened over several days rather than appearing suddenly
