Same-Day Appointments in Hell’s Kitchen for Urgent Dental Needs
Dental emergencies are never convenient, but getting high-quality care should be. At Terra Dental, we offer compassionate, timely emergency dentistry in the heart of NYC. Whether you're experiencing sudden pain, a cracked tooth, or dental trauma, our team is here to help — quickly and gently.
What Qualifies as a Dental Emergency?
A crown is a custom-made “cap” that fits over your existing tooth to restore its strength, shape, and appearance. We typically recommend crowns when:
Sudden tooth pain or swelling
Chipped, cracked, or broken teeth
Knocked-out or loose teeth
Lost or broken fillings / crowns
Soft tissue injuries (gums, cheeks, lips)
Signs of infection or abscess (swelling, pus, fever)
If you're unsure, call us. We’ll help you determine the urgency and get you seen as soon as possible.
Our Emergency Dental Approach
Every emergency case is seen by Dr. Joyce Suh or a trusted partner with advanced training in restorative and cosmetic dentistry. We prioritize:
Immediate pain relief
Conservative, aesthetic treatment options
Clear communication on next steps and costs
Seamless follow up to restore your smile fully
