Understanding the Cost of Treating Dental Emergencies
In a dental emergency, the last thing you need to worry about is how much your care will cost. Because each dental emergency is different and requires different treatment, we can’t provide a cost estimate until Dr. Zuberi has looked over your mouth.

Keys to Preventing Dental Emergencies
Dental emergencies can never be prevented with 100% certainty, but there are several precautions you can take to reduce your risk. These include:
- Brushing and flossing every day to prevent plaque buildup.
- Seeing Dr. Zuberi for six-month checkups so she can address potential emergencies before they damage your smile.
- Wearing a mouthguard if you play sports.
- Asking us about a nightguard if you grind your teeth when you sleep.
- Not using your teeth to chew on hard objects like ice cubes or pen tips.
