Severe infection, a broken tooth that can't be saved, or a painful impacted wisdom tooth: we perform same-day emergency extractions in Glendale. Gentle technique, IV sedation available, affordable pricing. Call now and we will get you out of pain today.
Not every painful tooth needs to come out -- but when extraction is the right treatment, waiting only makes things worse. Here are the situations we handle most often.
When an abscess has destroyed too much tooth structure or the infection is spreading, extraction stops the source before it reaches the jaw, neck, or bloodstream. This is a true dental emergency -- do not wait.
A break that extends below the gumline cannot support a crown. Extraction is often the only option. We assess the fracture with digital X-rays and give you a clear answer on the same visit.
Wisdom teeth trapped beneath the gum cause throbbing pain, swelling, and infection that can worsen fast. Same-day extraction ends the pain and prevents the infection from spreading to adjacent teeth.
When re-infection has caused irreversible damage and a tooth cannot be retreated, extraction followed by an implant is often the most predictable long-term solution for restoring your bite.
Decay that has consumed most of the tooth often leaves nothing to restore. Extraction eliminates the ongoing infection and gives you a clean foundation for a replacement option such as an implant.
Accidents, falls, or sports injuries can cause damage too severe to repair. When a tooth cannot be saved, prompt extraction prevents infection and starts the path toward a permanent replacement.
A few simple steps before you come in can reduce pain, speed your recovery, and help us provide the safest possible care.
Ibuprofen (if you can take NSAIDs) is generally more effective than acetaminophen for tooth pain. Apply a cold pack to your cheek to reduce swelling. Do not apply heat -- it can drive infection deeper. Avoid alcohol, as it can interfere with anesthesia and increase bleeding risk.
Do not eat or drink for at least 6 hours before your appointment (small amounts of water are usually fine up to 2 hours prior). Arrange for someone to drive you home -- you cannot drive after sedation. Wear comfortable, loose-sleeved clothing for IV access.
Blood thinners, diabetes, heart conditions, and immune-suppressing medications can affect extraction and healing. Bring a list of your current medications. We may need to coordinate with your physician for certain high-risk conditions before proceeding.
Most patients return to desk work the following day. Plan for soft foods for the first 24 to 48 hours. Avoid straws, smoking, and vigorous rinsing -- all three can dislodge the clot and cause dry socket, which is significantly more painful than the extraction itself.
We hold same-day appointment slots specifically for dental emergencies. When you call in pain, we make every effort to get you in today. Waiting a week with a dental infection is not acceptable -- and it should not be your only option.
Our board-certified dental anesthesiologist administers IV sedation here in our office. You are deeply relaxed for the entire procedure. Most patients wake up with no memory of the extraction and significant relief from the pain that brought them in.
Losing a tooth does not have to mean living with a gap. We discuss implant options at your extraction appointment. When appropriate, we can place a bone graft the same day to preserve the socket for a future implant.
We provide a clear cost estimate before treatment begins. We accept most major insurance and offer same-day financing through CareCredit, Cherry, Sunbit, and Proceed. Cost should never be a reason to leave an infected tooth in place.
"I was in a lot of pain and needed an emergency extraction. I have a serious fear of dentists and I was treated with such kindness and understanding. The TV on the ceiling kept my mind off my stress. They held my hand. The doctor made sure I was in no pain. The receptionist got me in right away even when they were very busy."

Many dental offices refer out for complex extractions or sedation. We handle everything here -- simple and surgical extractions, wisdom teeth, and IV sedation -- with our anesthesiologist on site.
We perform both straightforward erupted-tooth extractions and surgical cases -- including impacted wisdom teeth, broken roots, and teeth with complex root anatomy. You do not get referred out just because your case is more involved.
Our board-certified dental anesthesiologist is on site for IV sedation cases. This is the same level of anesthesia safety you would expect in a hospital setting, delivered in our comfortable Glendale office.
If you plan to replace the extracted tooth with a dental implant, a socket preservation graft at the time of extraction maintains bone volume and significantly improves long-term implant outcomes. We do this in the same appointment.
Extraction pricing at Smile Science is straightforward. Your fee depends on whether the tooth has fully erupted or requires surgical removal.
For erupted front teeth with straightforward roots. The most common emergency extraction scenario.
For back teeth, impacted teeth, or teeth with complex root anatomy requiring bone removal or sectioning.
Includes extraction, ridge preservation graft, membrane, and sutures. Recommended if you plan to replace the tooth with a dental implant.
We give you exact pricing before we begin. No surprises.
We accept most PPO insurance plans. Uninsured patients can ask about our Emergency Access membership ($149/yr), which covers your exam and X-rays. Financing through CareCredit, Cherry, and Alphaeon is also available.
For $149 per year, members receive two preventive exams, necessary X-rays, and discounts on all treatment including emergency extractions. No deductibles, no waiting periods, no pre-authorization.
We want to get you out of pain today regardless of your coverage situation. Here is how most patients pay.
