Dental pain does not wait. Neither do we. Complimentary emergency exam and X-rays for new emergency patients. Call 508-881-7700.
Dental emergencies require prompt attention to reduce pain, prevent infection, and protect the surrounding teeth and tissue. Whether you are dealing with a severe toothache, a broken or knocked-out tooth, a lost crown or filling, facial swelling, or sudden oral trauma, our practice offers same-day emergency appointments for new and existing patients throughout Ashland, Framingham, Natick, Hopkinton, Holliston, Southborough, Milford, and the broader MetroWest area.
When you call, our team will assess your situation over the phone and get you in as quickly as possible. We keep time in our schedule specifically for urgent cases and are one of the few dental offices in Ashland offering this level of same-day access.
If you are a new patient experiencing a dental emergency, we will provide a complimentary exam and X-rays at your first visit so you can understand your situation and your options without any upfront financial barrier. Call 508-881-7700.
When you arrive for an emergency appointment, our first priority is your comfort. We will perform an examination and use digital X-rays or 3D CBCT imaging as needed to identify the source of the problem quickly. This allows us to move directly into treatment rather than delaying care while waiting on diagnostics.
Depending on your situation, treatment may include pain management, a temporary or permanent restoration, antibiotic therapy for infection, or other appropriate intervention. Dr. Almaawi will explain what is happening, what the treatment involves, and what to expect during recovery before proceeding.
Our In-House Membership Plan can help cover your ongoing care and reduce the cost of emergency treatment. Ask our front desk for details when you call.

What counts as a dental emergency?
Any situation involving severe pain, uncontrolled bleeding, a knocked-out or broken tooth, facial swelling, or signs of infection should be treated as a dental emergency. When in doubt, call Ashland Family and Implant Dentistry at 508-881-7700 and our team will advise you.
Do you offer same-day emergency appointments?
Yes. We reserve time each day for emergency patients. Call us as early as possible and we will work to see you the same day.
Will I need X-rays during an emergency visit?
In most cases, yes. Digital X-rays allow us to quickly identify fractures, infections, and hidden damage with minimal radiation exposure.
Does insurance cover emergency dental care?
Most dental insurance plans cover emergency exams and treatment. We also offer a free emergency exam and X-ray for new patients. Visit our payment and insurance page for details on accepted plans and financing options.
What can I do for pain relief before my appointment?
Apply a cold compress to the outside of your cheek in 15-minute intervals. Over-the-counter ibuprofen can help manage pain and inflammation. Avoid aspirin directly on gums, and do not ignore worsening symptoms.
