Emergency Dental Exam and Diagnostic Costs
Every emergency visit begins with a diagnostic phase. This determines the exact problem, its severity, and the treatment required. You receive a written cost estimate before any treatment begins — no work starts without your informed consent.
| Service | Cost | Time | What Is Included |
|---|---|---|---|
| Emergency exam | $150 – $250 | 30 min | Clinical evaluation, pain assessment, treatment plan |
| Digital X-rays (periapical) | $25 – $50 each | 5 min | Targeted images of the affected tooth and root |
| Panoramic X-ray | $100 – $150 | 5 min | Full-mouth overview for complex cases |
| 3D CBCT scan | $250 – $350 | 10 min | Volumetric imaging for fractures, infections, implant planning |
Most Montclair patients pay $150-$350 total for the diagnostic phase, including exam and X-rays. PPO insurance plans from Delta Dental, Cigna, MetLife, Aetna, and Guardian cover emergency exams at 80-100% after the deductible. Our front desk verifies your benefits before treatment begins.
Emergency Dental Treatment Costs by Procedure
Treatment costs vary based on the type of emergency, the tooth involved, and whether the nerve is compromised. The table below covers every common emergency procedure Dr. Khoudari performs at our Pomona office, with real 2026 pricing.
| Procedure | Cost Range | Treatment Time | When It Is Needed |
|---|---|---|---|
| Dental bonding (chip/minor crack) | $150 – $400 | 30-45 min | Small chips, craze lines, minor enamel fractures |
| Temporary filling | $100 – $250 | 20-30 min | Lost filling, exposed cavity |

| Root canal (molar) | $1,000 – $1,500 | 90-120 min | Infected or dying nerve in a back tooth |
| Simple extraction | $200 – $400 | 20-30 min | Unsalvageable tooth, simple root structure |
| Surgical extraction | $350 – $650 | 30-60 min | Broken tooth, impacted root, complex anatomy |

Most Montclair families carry PPO dental insurance through an employer or the Covered California marketplace. PPO plans cover emergency dental care at predictable rates. Here is what each coverage tier typically pays:
| Coverage Tier | What It Covers | Insurance Pays | You Pay (Example: $1,200 Crown) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Preventive (Class I) | Emergency exam, X-rays | 80 – 100% | $0 – $50 |
| Basic (Class II) | Fillings, extractions, bonding | 70 – 80% | $40 – $120 |
| Major (Class III) | Crowns, root canals, bridges | 50 – 80% | $240 – $600 |
A typical Montclair patient with Delta Dental PPO who needs a root canal ($1,200) and crown ($1,200) pays $480-$960 out of pocket after insurance. Without insurance, the same treatment totals $2,400. Our team files your insurance claim directly — you never deal with paperwork.
No insurance? CareCredit offers 0% APR financing for 12-24 months. A $1,200 crown becomes $50/month with zero interest. We also accept HSA and FSA cards, which use pre-tax dollars and save you an additional 25-35% on out-of-pocket costs.
Why Do Montclair Residents Choose Advanced Dentistry for Emergencies?
Montclair is a city of approximately 40,000 residents in San Bernardino County, bordered by Pomona to the west, Ontario to the north, and Upland to the northeast. Many Montclair residents work along the I-10 corridor and commute through Pomona daily. Our office at 101 West Mission Blvd., #221 sits directly off the I-10 — making it a natural stop on the way to or from work.
Residents near Montclair Place mall, the Arrow Highway commercial district, and the neighborhoods south of Mission Blvd reach our Pomona office in just 10 minutes via I-10 East to the Indian Hill Blvd exit. North Montclair residents near Moreno Street and the Montclair Transit Center reach us in 8-12 minutes via Monte Vista Ave south to Mission Blvd.
Unlike urgent care clinics or hospital ERs along Holt Blvd, our office has a board-qualified dentist, digital X-ray equipment, and a full operatory suite. Dr. Khoudari diagnoses and treats your emergency in one visit — the ER sends you home with painkillers and a referral, costing $1,772 on average without solving the problem.

What Are the Most Common Dental Emergencies in Montclair?
Dr. Khoudari treats the same emergency patterns across the Inland Empire. Here are the five most common emergencies from patients in the Montclair area, ranked by frequency:
- Severe toothache (38% of cases): Throbbing, constant pain indicates pulp infection. Treatment: root canal ($800-$1,500) or extraction ($200-$650). Ibuprofen 600mg every 6 hours manages pain until your visit.
- Cracked or fractured tooth (24% of cases): Biting hard foods, sports injuries, or grinding cause cracks. Treatment ranges from bonding ($150-$400) to crown ($800-$1,500) depending on severity.
- Lost filling or crown (18% of cases): Fillings and crowns loosen over time. Re-cementation costs $100-$200 and takes 15 minutes. A new crown costs $800-$1,500 if the original is damaged.
- Knocked-out tooth (12% of cases): Reimplantation succeeds 85% of the time when treated within 30 minutes. Keep the tooth in milk during your 10-minute drive to our Pomona office.
- Dental abscess (8% of cases): Swelling, fever, and pus indicate infection requiring immediate drainage ($250-$500) and antibiotics. Untreated abscesses spread to the jaw, neck, and brain within days.
Advanced Dentistry is rated 4.9 stars on Google by patients who trust Dr. Khoudari's diagnostic precision and transparent communication. Every emergency patient receives a written treatment plan with exact costs before any procedure begins.

Emergency dental costs are manageable with the right strategy. Dr. Khoudari and our team help Montclair patients minimize out-of-pocket costs through four approaches:
- Act fast: A cracked tooth treated within 48 hours costs $150-$400 for bonding. The same tooth treated after two weeks costs $1,500-$2,500 for a root canal and crown. Early treatment saves 60-80% on total costs.
- Use your insurance benefits: PPO plans reset annually. If you have remaining benefits, emergency treatment uses those dollars before they expire — money you lose if unused.
- Apply for CareCredit before your visit: Approval takes 5 minutes online. You walk in with 0% APR financing already in place, eliminating any cost barrier to same-day treatment.
- Ask about HSA/FSA: Emergency dental care is a qualified expense under both Health Savings Accounts and Flexible Spending Accounts. Paying with pre-tax dollars saves you 25-35%.
The biggest cost mistake Montclair residents make is going to the ER instead of an emergency dentist. The ER visit costs $1,772 on average, and you still need a dentist afterward for the actual treatment. One visit to Advanced Dentistry resolves the emergency for $150-$2,500 — and that is the total bill.
What Payment Options Does Advanced Dentistry Accept?
We accept every major payment method to ensure cost never prevents Montclair residents from receiving emergency care:
- PPO insurance — Delta Dental, Cigna, MetLife, Aetna, Guardian, and most other PPO plans
- CareCredit — 0% APR financing for 12-24 months
- HSA and FSA cards
- Credit and debit cards (Visa, Mastercard, Amex, Discover)
- Cash and personal checks
Our front desk team provides a written cost breakdown before any treatment starts. You approve the plan and payment method, then Dr. Khoudari begins. No patient receives a bill they did not explicitly agree to in advance.
