Had a dental emergency on a weekday morning. P&E got me in the same day, treated me with so much care, and had me pain-free before noon. They’re genuinely the best in Skokie.

FAQ
Everything you need to know before your emergency visit.
Dental emergencies include severe toothaches, knocked-out or chipped teeth, abscesses, lost fillings or crowns, and any urgent dental issue that is keeping you from your normal daily activities. When in doubt, call us — we’d rather you check than wait.
While we do our best to accommodate walk-ins, we highly recommend calling ahead for dental emergencies so we can prepare and make sure you’re seen as quickly as possible.
Gently rinse the tooth without scrubbing, place it in milk or saliva to keep it moist, and call us immediately. Time is critical — the sooner you come in, the better the chances of saving the tooth.
We offer a $99 special for new patients that includes an emergency exam and necessary X-rays. The costs of any additional treatment will be presented and explained in full before anything begins.
We offer flexible payment options and can discuss financing plans to ensure you receive the care you need without financial strain. Please call us and we’ll find a solution together.
Delaying treatment can lead to more severe issues, increased pain, spreading infection, and higher costs down the road. It’s always best to address dental emergencies promptly.
Over-the-counter pain relievers and a cold compress applied to the outside of the jaw can help manage discomfort until you can be seen. Avoid applying heat, and don’t place aspirin directly on the gum.
