Dental Emergencies in San Clemente, CA

Dr. Fernando Jacobs

What is an emergency dentist?

Today we are going to talk about what an emergency dentist is. First of all, all dentists treat emergencies, and an emergency can be anything that gives you pain, swelling, or some sort of discomfort that you would like to have addressed today. At Sea Summit Dentistry, we go one step beyond. The one step beyond is basically that we are able to handle all your needs from start to finish.

Root Canals

Let me give you some examples. Suppose you have a toothache and you need a root canal. Oftentimes, you will go to your dentist, he will tell you yes, you need a root canal, and then he will send you to see a specialist. That is another visit, maybe a few days to a few weeks later. You go and have your root canal done. All along, you're suffering with pain until you can see the specialist. Well, that's not really emergency care, in my opinion. Then, once your root canal is done, you get to go back to see your dentist, who does your crown. Your dentist prepares your crown and does a temporary crown, and he has you come back again a week or two later to have the crown glued on.

At Sea Summit Dentistry, we do it slightly differently, much to your advantage. Should you come see us because you need a root canal? We have the capabilities of doing your root canal right there and then. We have the capabilities, with our advanced digital technology, to scan your tooth and make your crown at the same visit. That's right. In about 2 hours, you can leave with your crown, or in about 3 hours, you can leave with your root canal and your crown completely done. No second visits needed. No hopping back and forth between specialist offices. And that is a huge advantage. It's one and done.

Tooth Extractions

Another example: suppose you have a wisdom tooth that has swollen on you, and you have a swollen gum. Again, you go see your dentist, and he says, "Yes, you need to go see the oral surgeon who will remove your wisdom tooth." Well, that's another visit, right? On another day, hopefully within a week or so, you get to see him, and he removes your tooth.

At Sea Summit Dentistry, we can remove your wisdom tooth most of the time, like 99% of the time, right there and then. We will not have to refer you, 99% of the time, to go and see another dentist. It is all handled in one simple, single visit.

Why is modern digital dentistry an advantage for emergency dentistry?

Whatever your needs are, modern-day dentistry with digital technology gives us a huge advantage as dentists by not having to send you hopping between offices. For you as a patient, most importantly, you don't have to take multiple days off from work tracking back and forth to different offices.

How can you contact Sea Summit Dentistry for emergency care?

If you are interested in having true emergency dental care, where you visit one office, get all your complaints addressed in one visit, and often leave without having to return for a second visit.

Again, just for your emergency care, we are open every day from 7:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. That's right. And that is another huge advantage of Sea Summit Dentistry. We are there until 9:00 p.m. every day to address all your urgent dental care needs.
