What counts as a dental emergency at our Danforth clinic?
If you are not sure whether your situation counts as an emergency, here is a plain list of what we treat on the same day at our dental clinic on Danforth. When in doubt, call us and we will tell you honestly whether you need to come in now or can wait.
Severe toothache or tooth pain
Tooth pain that wakes you up or gets worse over a few hours usually means an infection or abscess. This needs same-day attention. Call us now for tooth pain relief in Toronto.
Broken, chipped or cracked tooth
Whether it happened eating or from an impact, we can assess and repair broken teeth on the same visit in most cases.
Tooth knocked out completely
Time matters here. Keep the tooth moist, do not scrub it, and call us immediately. Re-implantation is possible if you act quickly.
Lost filling, crown or bridge
A missing filling or crown can be painful and leaves the tooth vulnerable. We provide same-day temporary or permanent solutions depending on the situation.
Swollen gums or dental abscess
Swelling around a tooth or in your jaw is a sign of infection. Do not leave this. We drain and treat dental abscesses the same day at our Danforth emergency dental clinic.
Emergency tooth extraction
When a tooth cannot be saved, a quick extraction is the safest option. We perform emergency tooth extractions in Toronto at our Danforth clinic, usually on the same day you call.
Not sure if your situation qualifies? Call (647) 930-5884 and describe your symptoms. We will tell you right away.

These are the questions our team hears most from patients calling about dental emergencies in Toronto and East York. If yours is not here, call us at (647) 930-5884.
What qualifies as a dental emergency?
Dental emergencies include severe toothache, knocked-out teeth, broken or cracked teeth, lost fillings or crowns, bleeding gums, facial swelling, or any dental trauma causing significant pain or compromising your oral health. If you’re experiencing severe pain or have suffered dental trauma, contact us immediately.

Do you accept CDCP insurance?

Is walk-in care available?
Yes, we welcome walk-in patients for emergency dental care. While we encourage calling ahead when possible to minimize wait times, we understand that dental emergencies don’t always allow for advance planning. Our team will accommodate walk-in emergency patients based on the severity of their condition.
When should I go to hospital instead?
You should go to the hospital emergency room if you have severe facial swelling that affects breathing or swallowing, uncontrolled bleeding that won’t stop, signs of serious infection with fever, or if you’ve suffered major facial trauma. For most dental emergencies, our dental office is the best first choice for specialized care.
