Broken or painful tooth
Emergency tooth extraction
When a tooth is broken beyond repair, badly infected, or a wisdom tooth is causing trouble, come in: emergency walk-ins are welcome seven days a week, and sedation is available if you are anxious.
01 / 04
When a tooth has to come out
- A tooth broken below the gum line or split down the root
- An infection that cannot be treated with a root canal
- A wisdom tooth that is infected, impacted or crowding the others
- A tooth loosened by gum disease
We always look first at whether the tooth can be saved. If it can, we will tell you.

If you are nervous
Sedation is given here by Dr. Quaddoura, our board-certified anesthesiologist. Read about sedation.

After the extraction
We talk you through the replacement options before we start, so a gap is a choice, not a surprise: an implant, a bridge or a denture.

Frequently asked questions
Can I come in today?
Yes. Walk-ins are welcome for dental emergencies whenever we are open, including Sunday 8 to 2. Call 713-766-1122 first and we can be ready for you.
Will it hurt?
The area is numbed first. For difficult extractions or anxious patients, sedation is available with our anesthesiologist.
How long does it take to heal?
It varies with the tooth and how it came out. We give you written aftercare, and we are open seven days if anything worries you.
Question about your own teeth?
The front desk will book you with the right clinician.
