About
Emergency Dentist NYC, located at the heart of Manhattan at 100 E 12th St, stands as a cornerstone of urgent oral healthcare in one of the world's most dynamic cities. Founded over a decade ago by a team of leading dental surgeons who recognized a critical gap in accessible, immediate dental care, the practice has built its reputation on the fundamental principle that dental emergencies do not adhere to a 9-to-5 schedule. Pain, trauma, and infection require immediate, expert attention, and this clinic was established to be that reliable first responder for New Yorkers and visitors alike. Their mission is unequivocal: to provide immediate, high-quality, and compassionate emergency dental care 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, eliminating the anxiety and prolonged suffering associated with dental crises.
What truly sets Emergency Dentist NYC apart is its singular, unwavering focus on emergency interventions. Unlike general dental practices that accommodate emergencies within a broader schedule, this clinic is engineered for urgency. The facility is equipped with state-of-the-art, on-site technology including digital X-rays, CBCT scanners for 3D imaging, and in-house dental labs for same-day crowns and repairs. This allows for rapid diagnosis and comprehensive treatment often within a single visit. The team consists exclusively of dentists with advanced training in endodontics (root canals), oral surgery, and trauma care, ensuring that from a severe toothache to a knocked-out tooth or a broken crown, patients are treated by a specialist with profound expertise in that specific crisis.
The clinic's unique value proposition is built on a triad of speed, expertise, and patient-centric comfort. Understanding that a dental emergency is often a stressful, frightening experience, they have perfected a streamlined process. From the moment a panicked call is answered, a dedicated care coordinator triages the situation, provides immediate advice, and schedules an immediate appointment—often within the hour. The Greenwich Village location is strategically chosen for accessibility from all boroughs. The office environment is designed to be a calming oasis, with amenities aimed at reducing patient anxiety and facilitating a swift, efficient recovery.
Beyond immediate pain relief, the practice distinguishes itself through its continuity of care. While they resolve the urgent issue, they provide a detailed diagnostic report and work closely with the patient's regular dentist to ensure seamless follow-up. For patients without an established dentist, they offer comprehensive guidance and referrals to trusted colleagues for ongoing care. Their expertise encompasses a wide range of urgent procedures: management of severe infections and abscesses with same-day root canal therapy, re-implantation of avulsed teeth, stabilization of complex jaw fractures, and intricate soft-tissue repairs. In an era where corporate dental chains can feel impersonal, Emergency Dentist NYC prides itself on maintaining a private practice model where deep clinical expertise is delivered with a personal touch, building trust in the most vulnerable moments.
Ultimately, Emergency Dentist NYC is more than just a clinic; it is a vital urban healthcare resource. It serves as a safety net for the city, treating everyone from executives on tight deadlines to families with children facing after-hours accidents. Their commitment to the community, clinical excellence, and relentless availability is what has cemented their status as the most trusted name in emergency dental care in New York City. They don't just fix teeth; they provide peace of mind, knowing that expert help is always just a call away, day or night.

Customer Reviews
10/10 experience. I couldn’t be more thankful for everyone here. After weeks of being in pain, I finally felt relief — and the whole process was simple and reassuring from start to finish. Every single person I interacted with — the dentist, the assistants, the specialists, and the front desk — was kind, patient, and made me feel genuinely cared for.
I felt understood here in a way I hadn’t anywhere else over the past few weeks. The entire team showed real empathy and made a really tough situation feel manageable. I’m so grateful for all of you.
Excellent service. I needed an emergent extraction and they were the only office that I could find. They were very pleasant and patient. The Doctor and his staff were excellent. I will be coming back for more dental work. I also appreciate the follow up text to see how I was doing the next day.
Dr. Lee is always thorough and attentive, and her treatments are consistently excellent. I first visited her clinic for an emergency when my front tooth was chipped, and I was so impressed with her care that I now see her regularly for cleanings. I’ve never been disappointed — she pays great attention not only to the functional side but also to the aesthetic details. She’s incredibly skillful and has an amazing sense of care and balance.
I recently underwent a wisdom tooth extraction for two of my teeth, one of which was causing damage to an adjacent tooth (see attached photo). From the moment I walked into the office, I felt welcomed and at ease. The staff was friendly and efficient, ensuring I was comfortable while I waited for my appointment.
Dr. Isaac was the epitome of professionalism. He took the time to discuss my dental concerns in detail, addressing all my questions and providing a clear understanding of why the extraction was necessary. I appreciated his transparency; he explained the entire process step by step, which helped alleviate my anxiety about the procedure. His straightforward approach made it clear that he genuinely cares about his patients' well-being.
During the extraction, I was pleasantly surprised by how attentive Dr. Isaac was. He checked on me frequently, ensuring I was comfortable and that the procedure was progressing smoothly. It was evident that he has a lot of experience, and his calm demeanor helped put me at ease.
After the procedure, Dr. Isaac and the front desk staff provided thorough aftercare instructions, covering everything from pain management to dietary restrictions. They made sure I understood what to expect during my recovery, which further eased my concerns.
Overall, my experience at the dental office was excellent from start to finish. I left feeling confident in my care and knowing that I could reach out to the office if I had any questions or concerns post-surgery. I would absolutely return for any future dental needs and highly recommend Dr. Isaac to anyone looking for a skilled and compassionate dentist!
My appointment was with Dr.Reyes, but I seen by Dr.Lee who was very thorough. I had a follow-up with appointment with Dr.Lee on November 1. I did not receive an appointment reminder and decided to inform the the practice via text that I was confirming my appointment. I then get a thank you for confirming reply followed by my co-pay costs. I have never received payment information for medical services while in route to my appointment that I had to confirm since they failed to do so. I am simply appalled by the lack of professionalism and communication to patients regarding of a financial barrier to care. I should received proper notification of any financial costs to care. I believe that Dr. Lee was great however as a Dr. is it important to know that you should know your upcoming patients, confirming with those responsible to managing patient appointment. Positive “bedside manner” is great, but that’s not the only factor when receiving healthcare. Unacceptable!
