You can see a dentist today in Los Angeles: call (424) 722-6124 during office hours, Monday through Friday, 9:00 AM to 6:00 PM, and we hold you a same-day appointment. One call, one visit, and in most cases the treatment happens the day the problem started.
The $89 covers the emergency exam and diagnostic X-rays. Treatment is priced separately and quoted to you in writing before any work starts.

Why we ask you to call first
Some offices advertise walk-ins and then leave you in a waiting room for two hours. We do it differently: the phone call is the front door. When you call first, we hold a specific time, pull together what we need, and have a room ready when you arrive, so the visit starts when you do.
Calling also lets us do honest triage. A knocked-out tooth gets told to come immediately with the tooth in milk. Facial swelling with trouble swallowing gets sent to an ER first, because that's the safe order of operations. And a lost crown with no pain gets a time that doesn't require you to run red lights.
What "same-day" actually covers
Every service in this office is available on a same-day basis when the schedule and the tooth allow it:
- Severe toothache diagnosis and treatment
- Extractions, simple and surgical
- Root canals for infected nerves
- Abscess drainage and treatment
- Broken tooth repair and lost fillings or crowns
- Knocked-out teeth, where the same hour matters
The pattern is the same across all of them: exam and X-rays for $89, a written price for the fix, your decision, then treatment.
What a same-day visit costs in Los Angeles
The exam and X-rays are $89, and that figure is the only price on this website on purpose: everything after it depends on what the X-ray shows. What you won't find here is a teaser price that doubles at the front desk. The written quote you approve is the bill. Insurance specifics, including the PPO plans we accept, are on the cost and insurance page.
Evenings, weekends, and the 24/7 phone
The last appointment window runs up to 6:00 PM, Monday through Friday. Outside those hours the phone keeps working: a real person answers (424) 722-6124 at night and on weekends, takes your details, and holds you the first opening, which after a weekend call is usually Monday at 9:00 AM. The weekend and after-hours page explains what to do for pain in the meantime, and which symptoms shouldn't wait for us at all.

Frequently asked questions
What counts as an emergency worth a same-day visit?
If it hurts, if it's swelling, if something broke or came off, or if a tooth is loose or out, it qualifies. You don't need to diagnose yourself before calling. Describe what you feel and see, and we'll tell you honestly whether it's a today problem or a this-week problem.
How late can I call and still be seen today?
Call as early as you can; same-day slots go to the earliest callers. A morning call almost always lands a same-day time, and afternoon calls often do. If the day is genuinely full, you'll be offered the first opening the next morning rather than a vague callback.
Do you take walk-ins?
No, and it's for your benefit: patients who call first are seen at their held time instead of waiting behind whoever arrived earlier. If you're already nearby, call (424) 722-6124 from the parking lot and we'll sort out the soonest workable time on the spot.
Can new patients get same-day appointments?
Yes. Most of our emergency patients are new patients; it's the nature of emergency care. Have your ID and insurance card if you carry one, arrive a few minutes early for the paperwork, and expect the exam to start on time. Spanish-speaking staff can take your call during office hours.
