No, your payment pays for the cost to hire a dentist to answer your call outside of normal business hours.
We do accept Cherry credit. However, because we don't have corporate backing, we can't afford to defer payments. Remember, our prices are 20% below the usual customary fee to make it affordable. You can also use After pay services that are offered in our invoice.
We estimate that this occurs in less than 2% of our scheduled appointments. However, if it does, our consultation fees include all diagnostic studies excluding treatment. We will provide you a copy of what we have done and a trusTED referral.
Your payment goes to setting up the required instrumentation for your procedure. Typically, an exam is done and there is a waiting period for the room to be set up. Your payment covers our costs to open sterile instruments for the intended procedure. In the past, we had too many people schedule appointments and “ghost us," or not show up. To prevent that, we ask for pre-payment to cover our business expenses.
We will refund your money if you cancel within one hour of scheduling your appointment. Please email your cancel request to
info@triangleemergencydentist.com
No, failure to not show up is on you.

The usual customary fee to remove a tooth is between $400-465. The cost varies depending on if it is a nonsurgical or surgical procedure. If there is an associated abscess with the tooth, there will be an extra charge to drain and remove the abscess. Wisdom teeth removal start at $475.00.
Please remember, root canal therapy is successful if the foundation of the tooth is solid. This requires an exam with a radiograph. In 60% of the cases, we see the tooth is compromised and should be removed versus having a root canal therapy. Root canals can range in price from $1000-$1500 dollars. The success rate of root canals is 97% when a dental crown is placed on the tooth. The cost to build up the tooth and place a crown can cost between $1100-$1300. You don’t have to do the crown right away, but you should plan for it in the immediate future. TED can give you solid advice on how to handle this.

Calcified Nerves, anatomical complex nerve canals, and heavily restored teeth with atypical anatomy and other emergency root canal procedures may be best for one of our trusTED colleagues to manage. We can provide local pain relief and treatment options, but we may not be able to provide you a definitive treatment option to address atypical nerve anatomy. This can occur in teeth that have a good foundation, but present with complex nerve anatomy. The overall incidence of calcified canals is low. The only way we can determine this is by taking an X-Ray. Schedule an In-Person Consultation.
