Emergency Services

Harte Dental makes every effort to provide same-day emergency dental appointments for patients! If you are experiencing toothaches, broken teeth, lost fillings or crowns, dental infections, or other urgent dental problems, send us a call. If you're having a dental emergency, call our office as soon as possible so our team can evaluate your situation and schedule you at the earliest available time. Our goal is to relieve your pain quickly, protect your smile, and help you avoid more serious dental complications. 

Sensitive toothpaste can help reduce discomfort from cold, hot, sweet, or acidic foods, especially if the sensitivity is mild. However, tooth sensitivity can also be a sign of a cavity, cracked tooth, worn enamel, gum recession, or another dental problem. If your sensitivity is severe, lasts more than a few days, is getting worse, or is accompanied by pain when biting, it's best to schedule a dental exam. Your dentist here at Harte Dental can identify the cause and recommend the most effective treatment.

Send us a call at (617) 696-5257 or email ContactUs@hartedental.com . We can often fit in your visit same-day!
