Emergency dental care in Louisiana: what to know
Every dentist we refer to in Louisiana holds an active license with the Louisiana dental board, treats urgent cases, and quotes fees before treatment. Typical emergency exam fees across the state run $90–$200, and simple extractions $130–$350.
Adult Medicaid dental benefits in Louisiana focus on urgent care such as exams, extractions and infection control. If that is your coverage, say so when you call and we will look for a participating clinic first. Emergency treatment for children on Medicaid or CHIP is covered throughout Louisiana.

Louisiana emergency dentist FAQ
Need help right now? Call 1-855-219-4656, free, Mon to Sat 10am to 5pm ET, Sun 9am to 2pm ET.
Can I get a same-day tooth extraction in Louisiana?
In most cases, yes. Partner dentists across Louisiana reserve emergency slots for extractions, abscess drainage and broken teeth. If the tooth needs an oral surgeon, we refer you to one with same-day availability.
Is there a dentist open on weekends in Louisiana?
Yes. Partner clinics in most Louisiana cities open on Saturdays, and a smaller number on Sundays. Call 1-855-219-4656 and we will tell you which one has the earliest slot.
Should I go to the emergency room instead?
Only if you have swelling that affects breathing or swallowing, uncontrolled bleeding, or a jaw fracture. Hospital emergency rooms generally cannot pull teeth or treat the cause. An emergency dentist can.
What should I bring to an emergency appointment?
Photo ID, a list of medications, your insurance card if you have one, any broken tooth pieces (in milk), and a way to pay the exam fee.
Do Louisiana emergency dentists treat children?
Yes. Tell the operator the patient's age and we will refer you to a pediatric dentist or a general dentist in Louisiana who treats children.
