Most practices listed above accept major dental insurance plans and many offer CareCredit financing.

Pick up the tooth by the crown (not the root), rinse it gently with water, and keep it moist — ideally in a glass of milk or between your cheek and gum. Call an emergency dentist in Alameda, CA immediately. Reimplantation is most successful within 30–60 minutes of the injury.

A dental emergency involves severe pain, uncontrolled bleeding, a knocked-out tooth, a dental abscess, or a broken tooth with exposed nerve — all requiring same-day care.

When in doubt, call a Alameda emergency dentist — most practices will advise you over the phone whether you need immediate care.
