When a tooth becomes severely damaged, infected, or causes intense pain, extraction may be the only way to bring relief—and waiting isn’t always an option. At Emergency Dentist of Chicago, we provide same-day emergency tooth extractions to relieve discomfort and protect your oral health.

Whether it's a decayed tooth, trauma from an accident, or a failed restoration, our dental team is equipped to handle extractions quickly and carefully. We begin by evaluating the affected tooth using digital X-rays to determine if removal is necessary or if it can be saved. If an extraction is the best course of action, we ensure the procedure is as smooth and pain-free as possible.

We offer local anesthesia and sedation options to keep you comfortable throughout the process. Our team explains everything in advance so you know what to expect before, during, and after the procedure. Once the tooth is removed, we provide aftercare instructions to help minimize swelling and promote fast healing. In some cases, we’ll also discuss tooth replacement options like implants or bridges.

Don’t let tooth pain control your day. If you need an emergency extraction in Chicago, book an appointment for immediate care.

Benefits

The Benefits of Emergency Extractions

Immediate Pain Relief

Removing a severely damaged or infected tooth provides fast relief from pain, swelling, and pressure.

Stops the Spread of Infection

Extracting an infected tooth prevents bacteria from spreading to nearby teeth or entering the bloodstream.

Protects Surrounding Teeth

A compromised tooth can affect adjacent teeth. Extraction helps prevent further complications or shifting.

Clear Path to Restorative Treatment

Once the tooth is removed, you can begin planning a long-term solution like an implant, denture, or bridge.

What Our Patients Say

Hear from real patients who received fast, compassionate, and expert emergency dental care—restoring their smiles and relieving their pain when they needed it most.

I was out of town (I live in California) and had a dental emergency late in the afternoon and was lucky enough to find this clinic. From the moment I called, the staff was responsive and incredibly helpful. They got me in quickly and Dr. Mohs was both professional and compassionate. They explained everything clearly and made sure I was comfortable the entire time. From someone who has had many unpleasant experiences at the Dentist, I’m so grateful for how quickly they were able to check me in and help me during this time. If you ever have a dental emergency or need any urgent, last-minute dental care, I highly recommend this place!

When I arrived at this practice I wasn’t sure what to think, but all I knew was I had a Dental Emergency and it seemed like they would probably be the right place for me during my time of crisis. Boy did that turn out to be the case! Dr. Mohs was exactly who I needed during this pivotal moment for the future of my mouth. His experience, calm demeanor, fair pricing, and silky dental mitts blessed my emergency that day and I’ve been rocking a pain free smile ever since. Cheers to this great practice and excuse me while I try not to think of new reasons to return again soon!
Dr. Patel and the team at Emergency Denist of Chicago were INCREDIBLE! I had an emergency with my wisdom tooth, and they were able to see me on the same day, which was also a Sunday. This was my first tooth extraction, but the team was so warm, friendly, and they talked me through the process with positive attitudes and a lot of care. I highly recommend visiting them for your needs because they couldn't have been nicer!
