We understand that dental emergencies can happen at any time, and waiting days or weeks for an appointment is not an option. Our Tucson facility is equipped with the latest dental technology and staffed by a team of experienced professionals ready to address your dental concerns at a moment’s notice.
In this post, we’ll explore everything you need to know about our new Tucson location and how Priority Emergency Dental Care is transforming access to dental services in the region.
Why Tucson?
Tucson is known for its rich history, stunning desert landscapes, and vibrant cultural scene. However, the city’s rapid growth has also highlighted a crucial need for more accessible healthcare, particularly in dental care. Many residents in Tucson and the surrounding areas face challenges in finding emergency dental services, often resorting to emergency rooms that aren’t equipped to handle specific dental needs.
Our decision to open in Tucson is driven by this very need. The region’s expanding population requires more dental providers who can address urgent care concerns, including severe pain, broken teeth, and infections. By opening our doors in Tucson, we aim to close this gap in care and ensure that all residents have access to top-tier emergency dental services when they need them most.
Key Facts About Dental Care Needs in Tucson
- Growing Population: Tucson’s population is growing, with more than 545,000 residents within the city and over 1 million in the greater metropolitan area. This growing community brings an increased demand for accessible healthcare, including dental care.
- Limited Emergency Dental Providers: Before our new Tucson location, the region faced limited options for immediate dental care, leaving many to struggle with pain or seek less-than-ideal solutions in emergency rooms.
- Senior and Pediatric Needs: Tucson’s population includes a significant number of seniors and children, two groups that are particularly vulnerable to dental emergencies. Older adults may experience more frequent dental issues due to aging, while children are prone to accidents that can result in chipped or lost teeth.

Common Dental Emergencies and How We Treat Them
Dental emergencies come in many forms, and our Tucson team is equipped to handle them all. Here’s a look at some of the most common dental emergencies we treat and how we approach care:
Severe Toothache
A toothache may seem like a minor inconvenience, but it can be a sign of a more serious issue, such as an infection or tooth decay. Our dentists will perform a thorough examination to determine the cause of your pain and provide immediate relief through treatments such as fillings, root canals, or antibiotics to address infection.
Broken or Chipped Tooth
Accidents happen, and teeth can break or chip as a result of trauma or biting down on something hard. At Priority Emergency Dental Care, we use restorative techniques such as bonding, veneers, or crowns to repair broken or chipped teeth, restoring both function and appearance.
Knocked-Out Tooth
A knocked-out tooth can be a dental emergency that requires urgent attention. If treated quickly—ideally within an hour of the injury—there’s a good chance we can save the tooth. Our dentists will assess the condition of the tooth and socket, and if the tooth can’t be reinserted, we’ll discuss options like dental implants or bridges to replace it.
Abscess or Infection
A dental abscess or infection is not only painful but can be dangerous if left untreated. These infections can spread to other areas of the body, leading to serious health complications. We will drain the abscess, prescribe antibiotics, and treat the underlying cause of the infection to prevent it from recurring.
Lost Filling or Crown
Losing a filling or crown can leave your tooth vulnerable to further damage and infection. Our Tucson team can quickly replace lost fillings and crowns to protect your tooth and restore your smile.
Convenient Location and Easy Access
Located in the heart of Tucson, our new Priority Emergency Dental Care clinic is designed with convenience in mind. We are easily accessible from major highways and public transportation, making it simple for Tucson residents to reach us when a dental emergency strikes. While we won’t disclose the exact address here, rest assured that our Tucson location is strategically placed to serve a wide area, from downtown Tucson to the surrounding suburbs.
Our friendly front office staff is available to help you navigate your visit, from scheduling appointments to answering questions about insurance and payment options. We strive to make every aspect of your experience as smooth and stress-free as possible.
