Affordable Emergency Dental Care
Transparent pricing, no after-hours premiums, insurance applied same day, and financing for unexpected costs.
Transparent Pricing for Emergency Visits
We give you a cost estimate before treatment begins, even in emergencies. After the exam and x-rays, Dr. Bhatia explains what is wrong, what treatment options exist, and what each will cost. You decide what to do based on full information.
No After-Hours Premium
Some practices charge significantly more for after-hours emergency care. We do not charge premiums during our regular office hours, which include evenings until 7 PM on Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday. An emergency visit at 6 PM costs the same as one at 10 AM.
Insurance Applied to Emergency Care
Most dental insurance plans cover emergency exams and medically necessary treatments. We verify your benefits the same day as your visit and apply coverage to reduce your out-of-pocket cost. The fact that it is an emergency does not affect your coverage.
Walk-In Patients Welcome
You do not need an appointment for an emergency. Walk in during office hours and we will see you. Calling ahead helps us prepare and minimize your wait time. New patients welcome too.
Financing Available Same Day
If your emergency requires expensive treatment and you do not have the funds, we offer financing through four partners. You can apply during your visit and typically get approved in minutes. Many plans offer $0 down so you can get treated and pay over time.
Pain Management Included
Local anesthesia for any procedure is included in the treatment cost. For patients who are also anxious, nitrous oxide (laughing gas) is available immediately at additional cost (typically $50 to $100). We make sure you are comfortable during your emergency visit.

How Emergency Pricing Works at MySmile
When you arrive for an emergency visit, the first step is registration and insurance verification. If you are a new patient, this takes a few extra minutes. Bring your insurance card and ID if you have them, but do not delay coming in if you are in pain. We can sort out paperwork while addressing your immediate problem.
Dr. Bhatia performs a focused exam and takes targeted x-rays to diagnose the problem. The exam and x-rays are typically $100 to $275. After diagnosing, she explains what is wrong, what treatment options exist (often more than one), and what each option costs. Our team then verifies your insurance coverage and tells you your exact out-of-pocket cost for each option.
You decide whether to proceed. In most cases, treatment can start the same day. If the cost is more than you can pay upfront, our team helps you apply for financing during your visit. Many patients are approved in minutes with $0 down options, allowing them to get treated and pay over time. The goal is to make sure cost does not stand between you and getting out of pain.

How much does an emergency dental visit cost in Anaheim Hills?
An emergency exam with x-rays typically costs $100 to $275. The total cost depends on what treatment you need. Common emergency treatments range from $75 (re-cementing a loose crown) to $1,500+ (root canal on a molar). Most dental insurance plans cover emergency exams and medically necessary treatments. We verify your benefits the same day.
Does insurance cover emergency dental visits?
Most dental insurance plans cover emergency exams as part of your annual benefits. Emergency treatments (fillings, extractions, root canals) are usually covered at the standard rates for those procedures (50% to 80% depending on the procedure type). We verify your specific benefits during your visit.
Do you charge extra for emergency or same-day appointments?
No. We do not charge premium pricing for emergency visits during our regular office hours. An emergency exam costs the same as a regular limited exam. The same-day nature of the visit does not increase the cost. We only charge for the actual services provided.
What if I cannot afford the emergency treatment?
We offer financing through Cherry, CareCredit, Sunbit, and LendingClub. You can apply during your visit and typically get approved in minutes. Many plans offer $0 down. If financing is not an option, Dr. Bhatia will discuss the most cost-effective treatment approach for your situation. In some cases, antibiotics can temporarily control an infection while you arrange payment.
How much does an emergency tooth extraction cost?
Simple extractions typically cost $150 to $350 per tooth. Surgical extractions (broken or impacted teeth) cost $200 to $600. The cost includes the extraction, local anesthesia, and follow-up care. Most insurance plans cover extractions when medically necessary. The total emergency visit cost would be the extraction cost plus the exam and x-rays.
How much does an emergency root canal cost?
Root canal costs depend on which tooth: front teeth $700 to $1,100, premolars $800 to $1,300, molars $1,000 to $1,500+. The crown that typically follows the root canal is a separate cost ($800 to $3,000). Most insurance plans cover root canals at 50% to 80%. We can often start the root canal the same day to relieve your pain.
What happens if I cannot pay at the visit?
We offer financing options that can be approved during your visit. You can apply for Cherry, CareCredit, Sunbit, or LendingClub right in the office. Many plans provide instant approval and $0 down options, which means you can receive treatment and pay over time. Our team helps you find the best option for your situation.
Can I get an emergency exam without paying first?
Most dental offices, including ours, expect payment at the time of service or arrange payment plans before treatment. However, we work with you. If you have insurance, we verify and apply your benefits. If you need financing, we help you apply during your visit. The goal is to remove cost barriers so you can get the care you need.
