I broke my tooth!

We can provide a new crown in one visit!


Wow, my tooth hurts! What do I do?

  • Don’t be afraid to first call the office at 425–334–1934.
  • Yes, we are accepting most New Patients.
  • Postponing care is like not paying your taxes — eventually it catches up to you and hurts more for each day delayed and costs more too…
    • We can frequently provide information on how to ease the pain and set you up with an appointment to deal with the problem.
      • Many times we can see you the same day, or our next clinic day.
  • Dr Fred has been known to see established patients on weekends, holidays, even Christmas eve when it’s snowing hard.

Don’t do this stuff!

  • DO NOT miss any emergency appointment!
    • The Clinic’s policy is NOT to give prescriptions for those who miss a appointments. This behavior is frequently seen in drug abusers.
  • DO NOT put orajel, ambesol or other topical anesthetic gels on infected teeth!
    • This typically makes the pain worse in the short and long run.
    • These numbing gels seem to promote the growth of oral bacteria or fungi that are hard to treat with common antibiotics, are painful, and cause painful swelling.
    • Patients who have used this stuff for a while frequently are difficult to get numb — Ouch!
