In pain? We're here Emergency Care
Toothaches, chipped or knocked-out teeth, lost fillings and swelling — we keep same-day slots open so we can get you out of pain fast.
Same-day emergency dentist in Encino
A dental emergency is frightening and painful — and it never happens at a convenient time. At Farzad Dental on Ventura Blvd in Encino (91436), we keep same-day appointments open so patients across the San Fernando Valley can get out of pain fast.
Led by Dr. Philip Farzad, a USC-trained dentist who has cared for Encino families since 1998, our team is equipped to diagnose and treat urgent problems in a single visit whenever possible. From a cracked molar to a knocked-out front tooth or a painful abscess, we use digital X-rays and 3D imaging to pinpoint the problem quickly, then walk you through your options in plain language before we begin.
Because we are right on the Ventura Blvd corridor, we are minutes from Encino, Tarzana, Sherman Oaks, Studio City and Van Nuys — and if you are closer to the Antelope Valley, our Palmdale office can help too. You do not need to be an existing patient; new and existing patients alike are welcome for urgent care.
Don’t wait it out Emergencies we treat today
Severe toothache
Throbbing or constant pain often signals decay, infection or a cracked tooth that needs prompt care.
Knocked-out tooth
Fast action saves teeth. Keep it moist and come in within the hour for the best chance of re-implantation.
Chipped or broken tooth
We smooth, bond, crown or rebuild damaged teeth — often the same day with CEREC.
Lost filling or crown
An exposed tooth is vulnerable and sensitive. We re-seat or replace the restoration quickly.
Swelling or abscess
Facial or gum swelling can mean infection. This needs urgent attention to protect your health.
Soft-tissue injury
Cuts to the lips, cheeks, gums or tongue — we clean, treat and advise on healing.
Before you reach us What to do right now
Control the pain
Rinse with warm salt water and take over-the-counter pain relief as directed. Avoid placing aspirin directly on the gum.
Manage bleeding & swelling
Apply gentle pressure with clean gauze for bleeding, and use a cold compress on the outside of the cheek to reduce swelling.
Protect a knocked-out tooth
Handle it by the crown, keep it moist in milk or saliva, and bring it with you — time matters most here.
