Urgent Dental Care When You Need It Most

Same-Day Surgical Care for Dental Emergencies in Los Angeles

A cracked tooth at midnight, a jaw injury during a weekend game, or sudden swelling that makes it hard to swallow can turn an ordinary day into an urgent one. When dental trauma or severe infection strikes, the right response is fast, skilled surgical care that protects your health and relieves your pain. Knowing where to turn in West Los Angeles before an emergency happens gives you the confidence to act quickly when minutes matter.

Many dental emergencies involve problems that go beyond what a general dentist treats in a routine visit, which is where our team comes in. At Wilshire Oral Surgery and Implant Center, we offer same-day surgical care for the most serious situations, from facial fractures to dangerous infections that require immediate attention. As board-certified oral and maxillofacial surgeons serving West LA, Santa Monica, Brentwood, and Beverly Hills, Dr. Jonathan Shadi and Dr. Saman Vahedi bring advanced training and modern 3D imaging to every urgent case that walks through our doors.

What Counts as a Dental Emergency

Not every toothache requires a trip to the surgeon, but certain warning signs should never wait. Severe swelling in the face or neck, difficulty breathing or swallowing, uncontrolled bleeding, a knocked-out or displaced tooth, and intense pain that does not respond to medication all signal a true emergency. Infections are especially serious. According to research published in the Journal of the American Society for Microbiology, nearly 60% of all nontraumatic dental emergencies involve acute abscesses and toothaches, and these infections can spread to the surrounding tissues if treatment is delayed.

When an abscess or impacted tooth is the source of the problem, surgical removal is often the safest path forward. Our experience with complex extractions and impacted teeth means we can address the underlying cause rather than simply managing symptoms. Acting quickly protects the bone, the nearby teeth, and your overall health.

Facial and Dental Trauma Care

Accidents happen, and injuries to the mouth, jaw, and face demand specialized surgical skill. A fall, a sports collision, or a car accident can fracture the jaw, dislodge teeth, or damage the soft tissue and bone that support your smile. These injuries need to be assessed and stabilized by a surgeon who understands the full anatomy of the head and neck.

We provide comprehensive treatment for facial trauma and fractures, using advanced imaging to plan repairs that restore both function and appearance. Whether the injury involves a single tooth or a more complex fracture, our goal is to return you to normal as comfortably and completely as possible. Early intervention often leads to better long-term outcomes, so prompt evaluation is always the wisest choice.

Comfortable, Sedated Treatment When You Need It

Urgent procedures can feel frightening, but the right anesthesia makes a real difference in your experience. We want every patient to feel calm and cared for, even during an unexpected surgery. Our office is fully equipped to manage pain and anxiety so you can focus on healing rather than worry.

For patients who need it, we offer IV sedation and general anesthesia administered and monitored by our surgical team. This allows us to perform involved procedures safely while keeping you relaxed and comfortable throughout. Combined with our modern surgical techniques, sedation helps reduce both the stress of the visit and the discomfort of recovery. Bilingual care is available in our office, with Spanish and Persian spoken by our doctors and staff, so you can communicate clearly during a stressful moment.
