A real person answers. For severe swelling or bleeding you will be advised whether the emergency room is safer. Otherwise we book the first Mission slot available and tell you how to manage the pain until then.
Do Mission 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 Mission who treats children.
Can I get a root canal on the same day in Mission?
Often the first visit relieves pain by opening the tooth and removing the infected nerve, with the root canal completed at a second visit. Several Mission partner dentists can start the same day.
Should I go to a Mission hospital ER for tooth pain?
Only if you have swelling that affects breathing or swallowing, uncontrolled bleeding, or a jaw fracture. Hospital emergency rooms in Hidalgo County generally cannot pull teeth or treat the cause. An emergency dentist can.
