At Eversmiles Dental in Pasadena, TX, we understand that dental emergencies don’t wait for convenient appointments. When you’re facing severe tooth pain, infection, or damage that requires immediate attention, waiting days or weeks for treatment isn’t an option. That’s why we offer same-day emergency extractions and root canals to relieve your pain and protect your oral health—fast. Our experienced team is equipped to handle urgent cases with compassion and expertise, so you can get back to living your life without discomfort.
SAME-DAY ROOT CANALS
A root canal becomes necessary when the soft tissue inside your tooth—called the pulp—becomes infected or inflamed due to deep decay, trauma, or repeated dental procedures. Left untreated, the infection can spread to surrounding bone and tissue, causing an abscess and potentially life-threatening complications.
- Severe, persistent toothache: Pain that throbs, intensifies when you bite down, or keeps you up at night is often a sign you need immediate treatment.
- Prolonged sensitivity: Sharp pain when consuming hot or cold foods that lingers long after indicates the pulp may be damaged or infected.
- Swollen, tender gums: Puffiness or a bump near the affected tooth could signal an abscess that needs urgent care.
- Tooth discoloration: A darkened tooth may mean the pulp inside has died or is dying, requiring prompt intervention to save the tooth.
The Benefits Of A Beautiful Smile
A beautiful smile is more than just an aesthetic asset—it’s a vital component of your overall health and well-being. Here are some of the key benefits of investing in cosmetic dentistry:
- Enhanced self-esteem: A bright, white smile can boost your self-confidence, allowing you to smile freely in all situations.
- Better oral health: Cosmetic dentistry often addresses underlying issues such as misalignment or gaps, which can reduce the risk of tooth decay and gum disease.
- Positive first impressions: Whether in a job interview or social gathering, a beautiful smile can leave a lasting positive impression.
- Youthful appearance: Cosmetic procedures can counteract the effects of aging, giving you a more youthful and vibrant look.
- Improved functionality: Procedures like bonding and veneers not only enhance the appearance of your teeth but also improve their functionality, making it easier to eat and speak comfortably.
THE ROOT CANAL PROCESS
We make root canal treatment as comfortable and efficient as possible, using advanced technology and gentle techniques to relieve your pain quickly.
During your same-day appointment, we’ll numb the area completely so you won’t feel pain—just pressure as we work. We carefully remove the infected pulp, clean and disinfect the inside of your tooth, and seal it with a biocompatible material to prevent future infection. Depending on the condition of your tooth, we’ll place a temporary or permanent filling and schedule you for a crown if needed to protect the tooth long-term.
- Preserve your natural tooth: Keeping your tooth maintains your bite function and prevents surrounding teeth from shifting.
- Eliminate infection: Removing infected tissue stops the spread of bacteria and prevents serious health complications.
- Quick recovery: Most patients return to normal activities within a day or two with minimal discomfort.
- Avoid extraction: Saving your tooth eliminates the need for implants or bridges to replace a missing tooth, saving you time and money.
SAME-DAY TOOTH EXTRACTIONS
While we always strive to save your natural teeth, sometimes extraction is the safest and most effective solution. Whether your tooth is severely damaged, infected beyond repair, or causing complications, we provide same-day extractions to quickly eliminate your pain and protect your overall health.
Extraction becomes necessary when a tooth cannot be saved through other treatments. This includes teeth with severe decay that has destroyed most of the structure, advanced infections that don’t respond to antibiotics or root canal treatment, fractures below the gum line, or impacted wisdom teeth causing pain and damage to adjacent teeth. We also perform extractions for teeth that have lost significant bone support due to gum disease or in preparation for orthodontic treatment.
- Comprehensive evaluation: We examine your tooth with digital X-rays to plan the safest extraction approach.
- Effective anesthesia: We numb the area completely and offer sedation options if you experience dental anxiety.
- Gentle removal: Using specialized instruments, we carefully remove your tooth while preserving surrounding bone and tissue.
- Immediate aftercare: We provide detailed instructions for managing discomfort and promoting proper healing.
EMERGENCY WISDOM TEETH REMOVAL
Wisdom teeth often cause problems that require urgent extraction, especially when they become impacted or infected. If you’re experiencing severe pain and swelling, infection with pus or fever, damage to adjacent teeth, or difficulty opening your mouth, you need same-day care.
We handle complex wisdom teeth extractions with precision and care, ensuring you’re comfortable throughout the procedure. Most patients recover quickly when they follow our aftercare instructions, which include managing discomfort with pain relievers and ice packs, eating soft foods for a few days, avoiding activities that could dislodge the blood clot, and keeping the area clean with gentle salt water rinses.
