A Different Kind of Emergency Dentist

Smile Lab isn’t a typical dental office. It’s a premium multi-specialty studio in Union Square — built around the idea that dental care should feel nothing like what you’ve always dreaded. That matters especially on a day like today.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. Can I really get seen today?

Yes. Smile Lab offers same-day emergency appointments 365 days a year, including evenings and weekends. Call (332) 222-8660 and our team will get you in as quickly as possible, often within hours.

Any situation involving severe or worsening pain, uncontrolled bleeding, facial swelling, a knocked-out or broken tooth, lost crown, or signs of infection qualifies. If you’re unsure — call us anyway. We’d always rather you check than wait too long.

We’ll give you a clear cost breakdown before any treatment begins. For patients with PPO insurance, we verify your coverage first so there are no surprises. For uninsured patients, our emergency consultation is $99. Flexible payment plans are available for larger treatments.

We accept most major PPO insurance plans including Aetna, Cigna, Delta Dental, Guardian, MetLife, UnitedHealthcare, Anthem/BCBS, and more. We do not accept Medicaid or HMO plans. Use the insurance check tool below or call us and we’ll verify in minutes.

For a knocked-out tooth: keep it moist in milk or between your cheek and gum. For pain: take over-the-counter pain relievers as directed. For swelling: apply a cold compress to the outside of your cheek. For bleeding: apply gentle pressure with clean gauze. Most importantly — call (332) 237-6453 so we can guide you on the way in.

Not at all. Many of our emergency patients come to us after years away. We’re here to help, not lecture. As one of our patients put it: “Super nice and non-judgmental staff. Nice waiting area and quick treatment. 10/10 recommend.”

You’re in good company — and you’re in the right place. Dental anxiety is something our team handles every single day. The space, the music, the approach — it’s designed to make even the most anxious patient feel safe. Hundreds of our reviews describe this exact experience.
