Emergency Dentist in North York —
Same-Day and Walk-in Care at Don Mills & Eglinton

In pain or dealing with a dental emergency? Call us now at (416) 449-2828. At Dentistry on Don Mills, we keep time open each day for urgent care, so patients across North York can be seen quickly — often the same day. Whether it's a sudden toothache, a broken tooth, or a knocked-out tooth, our experienced team is here to get you out of pain and protect your smile.

Same-day emergency appointments

Dental problems rarely happen at a convenient time. When you call, let our front desk know it's an emergency and we'll do our best to fit you in that day. We welcome both existing patients and new patients from North York, Don Mills, and the surrounding Toronto area. The sooner we see you, the more options we usually have to save the tooth and ease your discomfort.

Dental emergencies we treat

We handle the full range of urgent dental problems, including:

  • Severe toothache or persistent tooth pain

  • Knocked-out (avulsed) or loosened teeth

  • Broken, cracked, or chipped teeth

  • Lost or broken fillings and crowns

  • Dental abscesses, swelling, or infection

  • Broken or painful dentures

  • Soft-tissue injuries and bleeding gums

  • Pain after a recent dental procedure

What to do before you reach us

A few simple steps can make a real difference while you're on your way in:

Toothache: Rinse with warm salt water and gently floss to remove any trapped food. A cold compress on the cheek and over-the-counter pain relief can help. Don't place aspirin directly on the gum.

Knocked-out tooth: Pick the tooth up by the crown (not the root), rinse it gently, and if you can, place it back in the socket. If not, keep it in milk and see us within 30–60 minutes — time is critical to saving the tooth.

Broken or chipped tooth: Save any pieces, rinse your mouth with warm water, and use a cold compress to reduce swelling.

Lost filling or crown: Keep the crown if you have it. Temporary dental cement from a pharmacy can protect the tooth until your visit.

Swelling or abscess: Facial swelling and infection need prompt attention — call us right away so we can see you quickly.

When to go to the ER instead: If you have difficulty breathing or swallowing, uncontrolled bleeding, or significant facial trauma, call 911 or go to your nearest emergency room.
