Detailed Introduction

The Dental ER, located at 1891 Maine St Suite #1, Quincy, IL 62301, is a dedicated Dental Clinic specializing in emergency and Urgent dental care. Founded in 2008, their mission is to provide immediate relief from dental pain at competitive prices, particularly catering to individuals who may not have dental insurance or cannot afford regular dental care. They strive to create a calming and patient-centered atmosphere, acknowledging and managing patient anxiety through patience, understanding, and sedation techniques like Nitrous Oxide. The clinic offers a wide range of services designed to address various Dental Emergencies and general oral health needs. These include extractions (both routine and surgical wisdom teeth extractions), toothache treatments that may involve prescription medication and temporary fillings, and a variety of other procedures such as sedation dentistry, laser treatment, cosmetic dentistry, ceramic fillings (CEREC), teeth whitening, root canal treatment, oral surgery, periodontal surgery, and children's dentistry, alongside regular checkups. They also facilitate referrals to specialists or general dentists for definitive follow-up treatment when necessary. The Dental ER emphasizes quick and efficient service, often offering same-day appointments or walk-in options for urgent cases. Patient testimonials frequently highlight the staff's friendliness, the doctors' expertise (with Dr. Dave often mentioned in reviews), and the clinic's ability to make anxious patients feel comfortable. They are noted for being affordable, even for those without insurance, with transparent pricing for services like extractions and non-extraction visits.

I can't say enough about The Dental ER. They are all around AMAZING. Going to the dentist is something most people dread doing but they make you feel welcome, comfortable, and make the whole experience great. They are easy to work with and very accommodating. Anyone looking for a change CALL THEM. Angie works great with your schedule to make things happen and Dr. Allen. . .

. I can't say enough about him. He does wonders and he can do it all. Thank you ALL for everything you have done. If there were more than 5 stars. . . you would get it.

Highly recommend The Dental ER! The clinic put my fears at ease and were so kind. The staff was empathetic regarding my severe fear of dentists. I shared with the staff what I had been told at a different dental office in the past. Thankfully I learned from Dr.

Dave I don’t need full dentures as I was told previously. The Dental ER staff was very informative, positive, and pleasant. I actually look forward to my next dental appt with Dr. Dave! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Wow the receptionist had horrible customer service. I was in the middle of asking her a question and her words were "i have another call" and hung up on me. If that's how they treat people before they even come in then I will not be giving them my money

My boyfriend and I had the worst experience at the dental ER. I don’t think we’ve ever been treated so disrespectfully in our lives by a healthcare professional and the team. It seemed as if they were just trying to make their money and get us out the door as quickly as possible. The Doctor didn’t even give us the time of day. He kept over talking us when we were trying to voice our reasoning for coming in.

His nurse Angie was the only one who seemed to help when I called back to talk about the awful experience we had. We went to the dental ER as our last resort as the pain was unbearable. It was also Christmas weekend so my regular dentist wasn’t open. Thinking just maybe this person could help. He had already been on antibiotics for months but the wrong one doctor had said.

He did proscribe me the antibiotics that he needed then sent us out the door. This was one of the same antibiotics he was previously taking, which made him sick. He would have known that if he had just listened. Overall it was just a terrible experience and wouldn’t not recommend going there for care.
