How far is our office from Palm Springs?
About 10 road miles from the Village of Palm Springs, measured from the area around 10th Ave N and the public library. The drive usually takes 18 to 22 minutes. Military Trail does most of the work: it carries you south through Lake Worth Rd and Lantana Rd to Hypoluxo Rd, and from there it's a short run west.
Same-day emergency dental care for Palm Springs patients
Dental pain doesn't fit neatly into anyone's schedule. When a tooth starts aching, a crown falls out, or your child chips a front tooth at the park, call us. A person picks up, asks a few questions and gives you an appointment for that same day.
Please call before you come, as we don't see walk-ins. Your call reserves a treatment room and a dentist, so we're ready for you.
When you get here, the dentist examines the problem, takes an X-ray and explains it in plain words. You'll receive the price for each option on paper and decide what to do. Many emergencies are treated during that first visit, like an abscess that needs draining or a painful wisdom tooth.
Swelling that affects breathing or swallowing needs a hospital emergency room first. JFK Medical Center on S Congress Ave is a short drive south of Palm Springs. Hospitals treat the danger but generally don't treat the tooth, so call us once you're stable.
