Same-Day Emergency Dentistry in Montvale, NJ
Dental pain, swelling, a broken tooth, or a sudden change in your smile can feel overwhelming. ARC prioritizes same-day emergency guidance whenever possible so patients can take the next right step quickly.
When something feels wrong, clarity matters.
An urgent dental visit is focused on understanding the source of the problem, easing discomfort where possible, and explaining your treatment options in a way that feels manageable. If you are in pain, call so the team can help determine the safest same-day next step.
- Toothaches or pressure
- Broken, chipped, or cracked teeth
- Lost crowns or restorations
- Swelling, infection concerns, or trauma

The first priority is understanding the cause.
Pain can come from decay, cracks, bite trauma, infection, gum problems, or damaged restorations. ARC evaluates the area and explains what is happening before recommending treatment.


Emergency care can also protect the final result.
A fast patch is not always the best long-term plan. When a tooth can be saved, restored, or replaced, we help you understand the difference between immediate relief and lasting care.
A clear sequence from questions to confidence.
ARC keeps the process organized so you understand the purpose of each visit, the choices available, and the next step before moving forward.

Helpful answers before you schedule.
Use these questions as a starting point. Your consultation is where recommendations become personal.
Should I call for tooth pain?
Yes, especially if pain is worsening, waking you at night, or paired with swelling or sensitivity.
What if a tooth breaks?
Save any pieces if possible and call for guidance. Avoid chewing on that side until evaluated.
Is swelling serious?
Swelling can be a sign of infection and should be addressed quickly. Severe swelling or difficulty breathing requires emergency medical care.
Can an emergency lead to an implant?
Sometimes a tooth cannot predictably be saved. If replacement is needed, implant options can be discussed after the urgent issue is evaluated.
