If you or a loved one has an urgent dental care need, same day appointments are a wonderful option.

What are the benefits of same day appointments?

Choosing to work with a dental team that offers same day appointments means you have a fast track to relief if and when unexpected dental issues arise. As you navigate the obligations of career, family, friends, and community, dental issues can slow you down. 

Having access to a trusted dental provider with a dedication to meeting your immediate needs is important. That’s why the team at Access Dental structures the daily office schedule to leave time for same day appointments. 

If you’re a parent, finding swift relief for your child’s dental needs is a top priority. No parent wants to see their little one anxious or in pain, and same day visits strive to get you on track to relief as quickly as possible. 

How should I prepare for a same day appointment?

Preparing for a same day appointment is much like getting ready for any other visit. Be sure to let your dental team know if you’re taking any new medications or supplements or have any newly diagnosed medical conditions since your last visit. 

Be prepared to discuss the circumstances that led to your current dental needs, as well as your treatment goals. All of this information helps your dentist create a tailored diagnostic and treatment plan. 

How do I know if a same day appointment is the right fit for my needs?

Some dental issues, like a broken or knocked-out tooth, are clearly dental emergencies and require immediate care. In other cases, it isn’t always easy to decide if a same day appointment is the right fit.

One way to decide whether to seek a same day appointment is to consider whether you’d be uncomfortable or anxious if you have to wait to have your concerns addressed through a routinely scheduled office visit. If the answer is “yes,” then a same day visit is probably the right course of action. 

Access Dental also offers several ways to cover the cost of your services. The office processes many types of dental insurance and also offers Kleer® Dental Membership for uninsured patients and CareCredit®, a dental care credit option. 

There is no need to live with pain or other symptoms when help is just a phone call away. If you’re in need of prompt dental care, call Access Dental to see if a same day visit is available. You can always schedule less time-sensitive appointments using the online booking page.
