What to Expect

How does the emergency appointment process work at Aster Dental Centre?

Call (780) 540-9300 and describe your symptoms. The team triages over the phone to assess urgency and books you in. Most patients in Tamarack and SE Edmonton are seated within hours of calling.

At the appointment, the dentist takes digital X-rays to assess the full picture, stabilizes the emergency condition with local anaesthetic, and discusses your options for definitive treatment. If a root canal, extraction, or same-day crown is needed, it can often be performed the same visit.

Sedation is available for patients in severe distress. Direct billing is set up on arrival for all major Canadian plans. 0% financing for any uncovered balance.

Pick the tooth up by the crown, not the root. If it is dirty, rinse gently with water without scrubbing. Try to reinsert it into the socket.

The best outcomes occur when the tooth is reimplanted within 30 to 60 minutes.
