Tooth Pain, Swelling, or Broken Tooth?
Get a Clear Answer Today.
Severe tooth pain, swelling, infection, a broken tooth, wisdom tooth pressure, or a tooth that may need extraction should not wait for a routine opening. Prime Emergency Dental is nearby in Edmonds, open 7 days a week from 9AM–8PM, focused only on urgent dental problems, and provides Same-Day Urgent Treatment Available when clinically appropriate.
Alderwood Manor patients should not spend the day calling routine offices while the tooth gets worse. If pain is affecting sleep, eating, work, or focus, get the tooth evaluated today.
Close Enough to Go Now.
Focused Enough to Treat the Problem.

Call ahead, walk in during open hours, or book online. We evaluate the problem, take X-rays, explain the diagnosis, review the cost before treatment, and treat the source when clinically appropriate. If you are anxious or nervous, nitrous oxide/laughing gas is available when appropriate.
The Pain Has a Source.
Get It Diagnosed Today.
If you are searching from Alderwood Manor because something hurts right now, the goal is not to “watch it.” The goal is to identify the source, explain your options, and treat the urgent dental problem when clinically appropriate.
Severe Toothache
Throbbing pain, nerve pain, pain that wakes you up, or pain that medication barely touches needs a real diagnosis and a treatment plan.
Tooth Abscess & Infection
Swelling, pus, gum bumps, fever, bad taste, or facial pressure can signal infection that should be evaluated promptly.
Broken or Cracked Tooth
A cracked tooth can worsen with every bite. We assess the damage and explain whether it can be repaired, saved, or removed.
Urgent Extraction
If a tooth is too infected, broken, or painful to save, same-day extraction is available when clinically appropriate after diagnosis and consent.
Wisdom Tooth Flare-Up
Jaw pain, swelling, pressure, bad taste, or difficulty opening your mouth from a wisdom tooth can become urgent quickly.
Lost Crown or Filling
An exposed tooth can become sensitive, painful, or infected if left unprotected. We evaluate and protect the tooth when possible.
Pain Medicine May Quiet It.
It Will Not Fix It.
Tooth Pain Usually Has a Source
If your tooth is infected, cracked, abscessed, or non-restorable, waiting gives the problem more time to progress. Pain medication may temporarily reduce symptoms, but it does not remove decay, drain infection, repair a fracture, or treat the nerve. A same-day dental evaluation gives you answers, options, and a clear path forward.
Infection can spread beyond the tooth into gum, bone, face, or soft tissue
Cracks can deepen and turn a restorable tooth into an extraction
Swelling near the throat or neck can become a medical emergency
Waiting can turn a simpler visit into more complex, costly treatment
Antibiotics Are Not Automatic.
The Tooth Still Needs a Diagnosis.
Many patients hope antibiotics or pain pills will make the problem go away. Sometimes medication is appropriate, but medication alone often does not fix the dental source.
ADA-Informed Guidance: Treat the Dental Source
American Dental Association guidance recommends dental treatment instead of relying on antibiotics for many tooth-related pain and localized swelling situations when dental treatment is available. Antibiotics may be needed for certain infections, spreading swelling, fever, or other medical concerns — but they are not a substitute for an exam, X-rays, diagnosis, and treatment of the source.
Pain Pills Can Mask Symptoms
Ibuprofen, acetaminophen, or other medicine may reduce pain temporarily, but the tooth can continue breaking down underneath.
Antibiotics Do Not Repair Teeth
Antibiotics do not remove decay, seal a crack, restore lost tooth structure, or eliminate a dead nerve inside the tooth.
Treatment Targets the Cause
The real solution may be drainage, root canal treatment, extraction, repair, or another procedure based on the diagnosis.
Some Symptoms Need Immediate Help
Trouble breathing or swallowing, swelling into the throat or neck, severe fever, or rapidly worsening symptoms should be evaluated medically right away.

Sometimes medication is appropriate, but antibiotics and pain medicine alone often do not fix the dental source. Pain pills may temporarily reduce symptoms, and antibiotics may be needed for certain infections, but they do not repair a cracked tooth, remove decay, drain an abscess, treat an infected nerve, or remove a non-restorable tooth. We evaluate first, then explain whether medication, treatment, or both are appropriate.
