What Affects the Cost
Two emergency visits can cost very different amounts. These are the main things that change the price:
- The exam and x-rays. Most emergency visits start with an exam, and many need one or more x-rays to find the cause.
- The type of treatment. A filling, a crown, a root canal, and an extraction are very different amounts of work.
- Which tooth, and how complex the work is. A back tooth with several roots, or a tooth that is badly broken, usually takes more time.
- Sedation, if used. Some treatment is done with sedation, which can add to the cost.
- Follow-up visits. Some treatment needs more than one visit, for example to finish a crown or check healing.
Does Dental Insurance Cover Emergency Visits?
Many dental plans cover part of an emergency exam, x-rays, and treatment, but deductibles, waiting periods, and yearly limits vary by plan. Check your plan’s details, or ask the office when you call whether it takes your insurance and what you may owe.
Paying Without Insurance
If you do not have dental insurance, ask about payment plans, financing, or membership plans when you call. Ask for an estimate before treatment starts, so you know what to expect before you agree to it.
Questions to Ask When You Call
- Do you take my insurance?
- What does an emergency exam cost?
- Can I get an estimate before treatment?
- Do you offer payment plans?
Why Waiting Can Cost More
Small problems such as a crack, a lost filling, or an early infection can turn into bigger, more expensive treatment if they are left alone. A cracked tooth can break further, a tooth with a lost filling can decay, and an infection can spread. Calling early gives the dentist more options.
