Care that fits your life
Six reasons people in Waterloo choose us.
Walk-ins welcome
No appointment? You can walk in to our uptown office. Calling ahead helps us plan, but it isn’t required.
Same day appointments
We keep time for short notice visits. Call in the morning for the best chance of being seen today.
Direct billing and CDCP
We bill most insurance plans directly, so you usually only pay the part your plan doesn’t cover. CDCP patients welcome.

Your emergency visit, step by step
Fast, clear and focused on getting you out of pain.

We ask a few quick questions about what happened and how you’re feeling, so we know how urgent it is.

Relief first
We focus on relieving the pain and stopping the problem from getting worse.
A plan for the rest

When a hospital is the better first stop
Some situations need hospital care before dental care. Go to a hospital emergency department if swelling is spreading quickly, you have trouble breathing or swallowing, or you have a serious injury to the face or jaw.
For everything else, call us or walk in. We bill most plans directly, accept the CDCP and explain the fees before treatment.
