A dental emergency is any sudden tooth pain, injury, or broken dental work that needs attention right away. B-You! Dentistry in Suwanee, GA holds same-day emergency appointments for new and existing patients, and Dr. Tan Bui will get you comfortable and explain your treatment options before anything is decided. You do not need to be a current patient to call us when you are hurting.
Same-Day Emergency Dental Care
Tooth pain and broken teeth rarely happen at a convenient time. When you call B-You! Dentistry at (470) 866-5801, our team holds time in the schedule for same-day emergencies. Call as early in the day as you can so we have the most options to fit you in. We see patients from Suwanee and nearby communities, and you do not need an appointment history with us to be seen.
Our office is at 5355 Laurel Springs Pkwy in Suwanee.
Signs You Should Call Right Away
- Severe or lingering tooth pain
- A chipped, cracked or broken tooth
- A tooth knocked loose or completely out from an injury
- A lost filling or crown
- Swelling in the gums, face or jaw, or a small bump on the gum
- Bleeding from the mouth that does not slow down
- A broken denture or partial that is causing pain
What Helps Before You Arrive
- Knocked-out tooth: Hold it by the crown, not the root. Rinse it gently without scrubbing, and if you can, place it back in the socket or keep it in a small container of milk. Getting to us quickly gives the tooth a better chance.
- Chipped or broken tooth: Rinse with warm water, save any pieces you find, and use a cold compress on the cheek if there is swelling.
- Lost crown or filling: If the crown comes off whole, you can slip it back over the tooth for a short time. Avoid chewing on that side until your visit.
- Toothache: Rinse with warm water and floss gently around the tooth. Never place aspirin directly on the gum tissue.
What Happens at Your Emergency Visit
Our first goal is getting you out of pain. From there, Dr. Bui takes digital X-rays and uses an intraoral camera to show you exactly what is happening on the screen in front of you. He explains each option in plain language, whether that is a filling, a crown, root canal therapy, or a tooth extraction, so you understand why it is recommended before you decide anything. Patients consistently mention that nothing moves forward without a clear explanation first.
Everyone was friendly, professional, and took the time to explain my X-rays and why my wisdom teeth needed to come out. They answered all of my questions without making me feel rushed...

I had a crown fall out on Christmas and the next morning I was able to call and get an appointment for the same day as a new patient. Dr. Bui was great and able to reseat my crown for a very reasonable price.

If you feel nervous about treatment, ask our team about sedation options. The ADA explains more about what counts as a dental emergency and how quick care can change the outcome (MouthHealthy, ADA).

Our Hours and What To Do When We Are Closed
We hold same-day emergency openings during our regular hours: Monday to Wednesday 8 AM to 5 PM (closed 1 to 2 PM for lunch), and Friday and Saturday 7 AM to 1 PM. We are closed Thursday and Sunday. If pain or swelling starts outside these hours, call (470) 866-5801 and leave a message. We return emergency calls first thing the next morning we are open. If you have uncontrolled bleeding, trouble breathing or swallowing, or a suspected broken jaw, call 911 or go to the nearest emergency room right away.
After the Emergency Is Over
Getting out of pain is the first step, and regular care is what keeps it from happening again. Once your tooth is comfortable, Dr. Bui can set you up on the cleaning and checkup schedule he recommends for you, so small problems get caught early instead of turning into another emergency. New patients can also start with our $149 new patient exam and healthy mouth cleaning, or the $99 limited exam or implant consult if you are only dealing with one tooth today.
Emergency Dentist FAQs: Suwanee, GA
Can I really be seen the same day?
Yes. We hold same-day emergency slots on every day we are open. Call as early as possible so we have the most room to fit you in.
I am not a current patient. Will you still see me?
Yes. Once your emergency is handled, we would love to be your regular dental home, with cleanings, checkups and a plan for any other care you need.
What will my emergency visit cost?
Cost depends on the problem and the treatment you choose. Dr. Bui examines the tooth first, explains the options, and you know the plan before treatment begins. Ask our team about financing through Cherry or CareCredit.
My tooth was knocked out. What matters most?
Time and how the tooth is handled. Hold it by the crown, keep it moist in the socket or in milk, and call us right away so we can get you in.
Do you treat children for emergencies?
We see patients age 9 and up for dental care, including emergencies. Call our office and our team will help you find the right care for a younger child.
What if my emergency happens on a day you are closed?
Call (470) 866-5801 and leave a message. We return emergency calls first the next morning we are open, Friday and Saturday included.
