Saturday dentist in Lake Worth
Saturday is when a lot of dental emergencies happen. Kids are at practice, adults finally bite into the thing they've been avoiding, and a tooth that ached all week stops being ignorable. We're open Saturday from 8:00 AM to 2:00 PM for those problems.
Call first. We don't take walk-ins, because a weekend emergency still needs a room and a dentist set aside for you. A call lets us hold a time, so you aren't waiting when you arrive.
Dentist open on Sunday in Lake Worth
Yes, we're open on Sunday, also from 8:00 AM to 2:00 PM. That matters, because many offices are closed until Monday. If something breaks on Saturday night, you don't have to wait two days.
If you call Sunday after 2:00 PM, a person still answers. We'll hold Monday's 7:00 AM opening for you and explain how to stay comfortable overnight. We also wrote about this in our Sunday dentist article.
Early-morning and after-work hours
From Monday to Friday, we open at 7:00 AM. If a tooth kept you awake, you can be in the chair before most offices open, and still get to work. We stay open until 7:00 PM on weekdays, so an after-work or after-school visit is realistic too.
The office isn't open overnight. A late-night call is still worth making, though. A real person answers 24/7, takes your details, and holds the earliest opening. If you have spreading facial swelling, a high fever or trouble breathing or swallowing, go to the nearest hospital emergency room right away.
Weekend emergencies we treat
We handle the same problems on Saturday and Sunday that we do on weekdays:
- Severe toothaches and abscesses.
- Broken or chipped teeth and knocked-out teeth.
- Emergency extractions, including wisdom teeth.
- Emergency root canals.
- Lost fillings and crowns.
As on weekdays, you'll get a written price before any treatment starts.
Getting through the night before a weekend visit
If your appointment is the next morning, a few things can help. Keep your head raised on an extra pillow, since lying flat adds pressure to a sore tooth. Rinse with warm salt water after eating. A cold pack on the cheek, 15 minutes on and 15 off, helps with swelling. Over-the-counter pain relievers can help if they're safe for you, taken as the label says. Avoid very hot or cold drinks and chew on the other side. Don't put aspirin on the gum, and don't heat the area.
