Dental Emergencies in Kennewick, Yakima & Walla Walla
Sudden tooth pain, swelling, or trauma shouldn’t be ignored. At EW Implants & Periodontics Center, we provide same-day emergency dental appointments for patients experiencing oral pain, infection, or urgent complications—available at our Kennewick, Yakima, and Walla Walla offices.
You’ll be seen by Dr. Abdullah Alkanan, a board-certified periodontist and surgical specialist with the training to diagnose and treat complex dental emergencies quickly and effectively.
Same-Day Appointments for Urgent Dental Needs
Dental emergencies rarely happen on schedule—and waiting too long can worsen the problem. That’s why we reserve time each day to treat patients with:
- Severe toothache or swelling
- Cracked, fractured, or loose teeth
- Post-surgical complications
- Signs of oral infection or abscess
- Pain or bleeding around implants or surgical sites
- Gum inflammation that won’t resolve
- Facial trauma involving teeth or bone
Whether you’re an existing patient or new to our office, we’ll work to get you seen as quickly as possible—often on the same day.
Emergency Care from a Surgical Specialist
Unlike general dental offices, our practice is equipped to handle advanced cases involving the gums, jawbone, and implants. Dr. Alkanan’s credentials include:
- Board certification in periodontics and dental implant surgery
- Expertise in managing complications from extractions, grafts, or implant placement
- Use of in-office CBCT 3D imaging for rapid diagnostics
- IV sedation available for anxious or surgical patients
- Seamless transition to ongoing care, including bone grafting or tooth extractions
We’ll not only address the emergency—we’ll provide a clear treatment plan for lasting results.
Common Periodontal & Implant Emergencies We Treat
Our emergency appointments often involve complex issues not typically handled in general dental practices, such as:
- Peri-implantitis (infection or inflammation around an implant)
- Dry socket or delayed healing after an extraction
- Severe gum abscesses or periodontal flare-ups
- Cracked teeth that extend below the gumline
- Pain or instability around wisdom teeth or impacted molars
Even if you’re not sure whether your situation is urgent, our team can assess your symptoms and advise you on the best next steps.

What counts as a dental emergency?
Any oral health issue causing pain, swelling, infection, or bleeding that interferes with eating, sleeping, or daily function is considered a dental emergency.

Yes. You don’t need a referral to be seen. We welcome patients directly for same-day emergency visits.
What if I’m not sure it’s serious?
If you’re in pain or worried, call us. We can help assess whether your condition requires same-day treatment or a scheduled visit.
Do you treat emergencies related to implants?
Yes. We treat complications like peri-implantitis, loose implants, or pain following recent surgery. Our office is equipped to handle implant-specific emergencies.
Will I be treated on the same day?
