Your Trusted Emergency Dentist in North York, ON

At Emery Village Dental, we leave time open in our daily schedule to promptly accommodate emergency patients. With morning, evening, and Saturday appointments available, we're here when you need us most. Here are some common dental emergencies we handle.

Broken Teeth

If your tooth is chipped or broken, it will need repair to prevent further damage. Contact our team to determine if you need immediate attention or a future appointment.

Toothaches

If you're experiencing a severe or constant toothache, contact our team right away. It's likely your tooth is infected, and root canal treatment can eliminate your infection and pain.

Dislodged Tooth

If your tooth is knocked out or dislodged, time is of the essence to save it. The quicker we can treat it, the better chance we have to preserve your tooth.

Cracked Denture

Contact our team to coordinate repair with a dental lab for a cracked or broken denture so you don't have to live too long without your teeth.

Lost Restoration

If you lose or break a crown or dental filling, you will need to repair or replace your restoration to avoid further damage to your tooth. We can help!

Frequently Asked Questions

Most healthy patients can successfully manage their dental health with professional teeth cleanings and checkups every six months. However, patients managing gum disease may need extra teeth cleanings during the year.

Many people wonder why they must visit their North York dentist regularly if their teeth are not bothering or hurting them. The reason is that dentistry is all about prevention. If we can catch problems as early as possible, treating them with the least expensive and most minor procedures is likely easier. So your preventive checkups and dental cleanings actually save you time and money in the long term.

Periodontal Treatment to Prevent Gum Disease

Gum disease is a prevalent condition among adults over the age of 30. It's an infection of the soft tissues and bone that support your teeth. The inflammation that causes gum disease also contributes to other non-dental related health concerns like heart disease and diabetes, and vice versa. 

Detecting gum disease in its early stage, known as gingivitis, can help you successfully manage it and even reverse it in some cases. Unfortunately, periodontitis, advanced gum disease, can be controlled but never cured.

Book Your Next Appointment at Emery Village Dental

If it's time for your next dental appointment, contact your North York, ON dentist at (437) 900-8266 to schedule.

Digital x-rays are one of the most important advancements in modern dental technology, offering a safer, faster, and more comfortable experience for patients in North York. At Emery Village Dental, we use digital x-rays to diagnose issues with precision, while keeping your health and safety a top priority.

One of the biggest benefits is the lower radiation exposure. Compared to traditional film x-rays, digital x-rays emit up to 90% less radiation, making them a much safer choice, especially for children or patients who require regular imaging.

Digital x-rays also provide immediate results. Instead of waiting for film to develop, your dentist can view high-resolution images instantly on a screen. This means quicker diagnoses and treatment planning, right from the dental chair. Plus, the ability to zoom in and adjust contrast helps us catch issues like cavities, infections, or bone loss in their earliest stages.

They’re also eco-friendly. Digital imaging eliminates the need for film, chemicals, and waste, making them a greener solution for today’s dental practices.

Call Our Dentists in North York

At Emery Village Dental, we’re proud to use the latest modern dental technology to keep your visits efficient, safe, and comfortable. Got questions about your next digital x-ray? Our friendly team is happy to walk you through it!

During your routine dental exam every six months, our dentists check for signs of early problems like gum disease, tooth decay, and cavities. These conditions are best treated early on before they progress and require more complex treatment procedures. 

Our dentists will also check the health of your current restorations to ensure that no wear or breakdown could become problematic for you in the future. Restorations of the breakdown, like crowns, fillings, veneers, or bridges, may require repair or replacement in the future to maintain their function. 

What Happens If I Need Treatment?

Our dentists will review any treatment needs and procedure options with you, if it's needed. We educate our patients about their dental health so they're empowered to make the best decisions about their dental health and their treatment needs. 

We'll also review the cost of treatment and your payment options, taking into consideration your dental insurance if you have any benefits. We also work with third-party financing through the Affirm Payment Program that can help our patients successfully fit their treatment into their monthly budgets. 

Contact your North York dentist if it's time to schedule your next dental exam and teeth cleaning or if you have questions about your payment options.  

At Emery Village Dental, we leave time available in our daily schedule to accommodate emergency patients. We also offer evening and Saturday appointments so you can get the dental treatment you need when you need it most. 

If you or a loved one needs an emergency dentist in North York, we invite you to call Emery Village Dental at (437) 900-8266.
