Dental emergency? Read this first
If you have a knocked-out tooth, severe swelling, uncontrolled bleeding, or pain that's keeping you up at night, call us before filling out the form. Both offices hold time in the schedule every day for same-day emergencies.
- South Gate emergency line: (323) 999-2378
- South LA emergency line: (323) 949-3000
If it's a medical emergency, including trouble breathing, signs of an infection spreading to your face or neck, or trauma from an accident, call 911 or go to the nearest emergency room. Our emergency dentist page explains what counts as a true dental emergency and how to handle the first 30 minutes.
First visit? Here's what to bring
Doing these before you arrive saves about 20 minutes at check-in:
- Your insurance card, front and back
- A current photo ID
- A list of medications you're taking
- The name of your previous dentist, if any, so we can request your records
You can text photos of these to your booking confirmation thread or send them through the link in your reminder email.
Insurance, payment, and CareCredit
Simple Dental is in network with more than 150 PPO plans, including Aetna, Blue Cross Blue Shield, Cigna, Delta Dental, and Guardian. For larger treatment plans, we accept CareCredit financing, with 6- and 12-month no-interest options for qualified patients.
Don't see your plan listed? Call us anyway. We can usually file out-of-network claims and tell you what you'd owe before you commit to anything.
