Dr. Ashraghi prioritizes pain management. I had tough dental work done but not once did I experience pain in the process.
Tooth pain? We'll see you today.
A broken tooth, a lost crown or a toothache that won't quit shouldn't wait until next week. Call Alpine Dental and Dr. Ashraghi will find the cause and get you out of pain. New patients are welcome.
Call during office hours and we'll find you a time today, plus tips to manage the pain until you arrive.
If it hurts this much, it shouldn't wait.
Most dental problems get worse, and more costly, the longer they sit. These are the emergencies we treat most often.
Severe toothache
Pain that won't settle often points to deep decay or an infected nerve.
Knocked-out tooth
Time matters. The sooner you get here, the better the chance of saving it.
Chipped or cracked tooth
Even a small crack can let bacteria in and lead to infection.
Lost filling or crown
Leaves the tooth exposed and sensitive. Usually a quick fix.
Loose tooth
An adult tooth should never feel loose. Have it checked right away.
Sensitivity to hot or cold
Sudden, sharp sensitivity can signal a crack or exposed root.
Jaw pain or clenching
Pain when chewing or opening wide deserves a proper look.
Gum, lip or tongue injury
Cuts and bites in the mouth that keep bleeding or swelling.
From diagnosis to relief, all in one office.
- Root canal therapyGentle treatment that stops infection pain and saves your natural tooth.

Relief, gently
Treatment starts to eliminate the pain, with sedation available if you're anxious.
A few things that really help
Simple first aid for the drive over.
Go to the ER instead if you have a broken jaw, bleeding you can't control, or swelling that makes it hard to breathe or swallow.
- Knocked-out tooth: hold it by the crown, not the root. Rinse it gently, place it back in the socket if you can, otherwise keep it in a cup of milk and come straight in.
- Broken tooth: rinse with warm water, save any pieces and hold a cold pack on your cheek.
- Toothache: rinse with warm salt water, floss gently around the tooth and take a pain reliever as directed on the label.
- Lost crown: keep it safe and bring it with you. Avoid chewing on that side.
From our neighbors in Burke
Alpine dental was incredibly flexible when making appointments on short notice. The team here is friendly and has done an amazing job at helping me with my teeth.
I didn't need any numbing for a recent procedure thanks to her incredible hand skills. Would 100% recommend this place to anyone looking for a passionate and skilled dentist!

Things people ask us on the phone
How quickly can you see me?
We offer same-day emergency appointments. Call during office hours (Monday, Tuesday, Thursday or Friday, 7:45am to 4:45pm) and we'll find you the soonest time.
I've never been to your office. Is that okay?
Absolutely. New patients and emergency appointments are always welcome.
What if it happens on a Wednesday or the weekend?
Our office is closed Wednesday, Saturday and Sunday. Call us first thing on our next open day. For a broken jaw, bleeding that won't stop, or swelling that affects breathing, go to the ER right away.
Will I need a root canal or an extraction?
Not always. After diagnostic images, Dr. Ashraghi will explain what's going on. When a tooth can be saved, gentle root canal therapy is usually the first choice.
I'm nervous. Can you help me relax?
Yes. Dr. Ashraghi prioritizes comfort and pain management, and sedation dentistry is available for anxious patients.
