What counts as a dental emergency?

A dental emergency is any condition causing severe pain, swelling, bleeding, or trauma—like a knocked-out tooth, abscess, broken tooth, or sudden injury—that requires immediate professional care.

Can I be seen the same day?

Yes. At Yaletown Dental Boutique, we prioritize same-day emergency dental appointments in Yaletown and Downtown Vancouver. Depending on your symptoms, we often see patients within hours to relieve pain and prevent complications.

What should I do if I knock out a tooth?

Handle the tooth gently, rinse without scrubbing, and keep it red in milk or your saliva. Reach us within 30–60 minutes for the best chance of reattachment.

Are weekend and after-hours emergencies accommodated?

Yes. We offer weekend and extended-hour appointments when available, so urgent issues can be treated when regular clinics might be closed.

Will my emergency visit be covered by insurance?

Most plans cover emergency dental services. We offer direct billing wherever possible and provide flexible payment plans to help ease financial stress—just ask our staff for assistance.
