Fast relief. Expert care.
Smile Maker of Texas offers same-day emergency dental appointments in Plano whenever possible — for sudden toothaches, broken crowns, chipped or fractured teeth, infections, and swollen jaws. Dr. Ritchie Beougher and our team understand that when dental pain hits, waiting isn't an option, so we prioritize immediate comfort and same-day care.
With decades of experience and advanced digital diagnostics, Dr. Beougher identifies the source of your pain quickly and, in most cases, performs both diagnosis and treatment in a single visit — restoring comfort and confidence when you need it most, and preserving your natural tooth whenever possible.
The rule of thumb: if it hurts, it's an emergency.
Pain is your body's signal that something is wrong — and waiting too long can make treatment more complicated or costly.
Severe Toothache
Persistent or throbbing pain, or sensitivity that worsens or keeps you awake at night.
Chipped or Broken Tooth
Cracks, fractures, and chips — including knocked-out or dislodged teeth from trauma.
Lost Crown or Filling
Broken crowns, fillings, or bridges that leave the tooth exposed.
Swelling or Infection
Swollen gums or jaw, an abscess, visible pus, or bleeding after dental work or injury.
If you experience any of these, call our Plano office immediately — in most cases we can see you the same day.

Emergency dentistry in Plano, explained.
Can I get a same-day emergency dental appointment in Plano?
Yes — whenever possible. Call (972) 704-1390 as early as you can; we prioritize patients in pain and will do everything we can to see you today.
What counts as a dental emergency?
Severe or persistent toothache, chipped or fractured teeth, broken crowns or fillings, swelling or infection, knocked-out teeth, abscesses, bleeding, or sensitivity that keeps you awake. If it hurts, it's an emergency.
What should I do for a knocked-out tooth?
Handle it by the crown (not the root), rinse gently without scrubbing, and keep it moist — in milk or tucked in your cheek — and call us immediately. The sooner we see you, the better the chance of saving it.
How much does an emergency visit cost?
Our emergency exam is $79 with limited X-rays. Treatment costs depend on what's needed, and we explain everything before proceeding. Most insurances are accepted and financing is available.
Will you treat me if I'm not an existing patient?
Yes. New patients with emergencies are welcome — many of our long-term patients first came to us in pain.
Can I be sedated for emergency treatment?
Yes. Sedation dentistry is available so even anxious patients can get the care they need comfortably.
What if my emergency happens after hours?
Call and leave a message; we'll get you in as early as possible. For severe swelling that affects breathing or swallowing, or uncontrolled bleeding, go to the nearest emergency room first.
Don't wait. Call now.
If you're in pain, call Smile Maker of Texas to speak with our team and schedule an emergency dental appointment in Plano. We'll help you understand what's happening and prepare to see you as quickly as possible.
