Emergency Dentist Services

We can help with dental emergencies like:

  • Persistent tooth pain can signal decay, infection, or injury. Our emergency dentists identify the cause quickly and provide same-day relief to get you comfortable fast.

  • A dental abscess is a serious infection that requires prompt treatment because they can spread quickly without care. Our emergency dentists can drain the infection, ease pain, and protect surrounding teeth and gums. We use advanced imaging and antibiotics when needed to eliminate infection and prevent complications

  • Whether it’s a small chip or a bigger one, our emergency dentists can usually restore your tooth the same day using natural-looking bonding.

  • A broken or cracked tooth can be painful and vulnerable to infection. We assess the damage right away and start work on a repair whenever possible.

  • Swelling may indicate infection or gum disease. We gently treat the area, reduce inflammation, and help you heal comfortably.

  • From sports injuries to sudden accidents, we treat all types of dental trauma — repairing damaged teeth and soft tissue with skill and care. If you’ve had a dental accident, our emergency team can assess your injuries, relieve pain, and start restoring your smile.

  • When a crown breaks or falls out, we can often replace or re-cement it the same day to protect your tooth and restore your bite.

  • If a crown or veneer comes loose, avoid using that side and contact us right away. We’ll secure or replace it to keep your smile looking seamless.

  • When a tooth can’t be saved, many of our doctors perform gentle extractions with local anesthesia and provide guidance on comfortable, healthy recovery.

  • Even small cavities can cause big pain. We remove decay, protect the remaining tooth, and restore it with a strong, natural-looking filling.

  • We’ll guide you on how to preserve the tooth and do everything possible to save it.

I had a dental emergency on a weekend, and CPW accommodated me quickly and effectively so I was able to return to work on Monday feeling confident and assured. Everyone who worked there was lovely.

I accidentally fell and broke my two front teeth, when I went in everyone was very nice and genuine, immediately made me feel safe and at ease. They are also very clear on the service and transparent about the pricing, which made me understand how it works right there and then. Great experience!

Jinkai H.
I needed an emergency appointment on a Sunday and was able to get a same day appointment. I was very happy the wait time, attention, care, cost, and explanation of the cost. Highly recommended!

Juliana P.
I never felt so comfortable in a dentist office, ever! I am extremely fearful of the dental procedures and have been for over 40 years, but the dentist and his assistant made my first "emergency" visit a good one!

Stacey C.
Great service! I just arrived to NYC and notices a minor thing with my temporary crown which I wanted to be checked out. I was pretty excited that this place is open until 9 pm and they were able to schedule same day appointment. I got in and out in the evening without any extra wait time. Everyone was super nice and welcoming. My insurance was accepted as well. I will definitely come back here if I ever need dental help in NYC.

Margarita K.
I was traveling from Florida to NYC on business when I broke off an old filling. It was Sunday so I called CPW from the airport. They were able to get me in first thing Monday before my meetings started. Everyone in the office -- from the person who took my call on Sunday to the Doctor, assistants, receptionist, the person handling the insurance and payment were simply outstanding. This place provides the type of customer service that should be the standard!!

Barry G.
We can only say great things about this center. We went there as a last-minute emergency, and they did everything possible to help and understand us. If we return to New York and have any other problems, we will come back without hesitation. We recommend it 100%.

Such a great experience for us. My son had an emergency. The staff at Central Park west got him in quickly and got him out of pain. We are from out of state and we are so appreciative of their kindness and skill in taking care of him. Thank you again!

I am so happy I “found” Central Park West. I had an emergency a couple of years ago while visiting family in New York, and the personal service and incredible seven-days-a-week availability and flexibility impressed me greatly. And, most importantly, the quality of care and personal attention is wonderful. A throwback to an earlier era when dentists were professional and an appointment wasn’t a shakedown for unneeded treatments and products.

Julius M.
I took my husband into the office on Sunday. He had severe tooth pain. Everyone in the office was warm and welcoming. The dentist was great with him. She explained the tooth problem clearly and help us come up with a plan to restore a few of his teeth. We both loved the staff who clearly broke down costs and helped us to process all of the helpful information that they gave us. My husband tooth is doing well. I highly recommend this dental practice.
