Emergency Dental Care for El Monte Residents

From El Monte we are 5.4 miles east on the 10, exit Sunset Avenue — about twelve minutes without traffic. Call (626) 337-7271 first: we will tell you whether we can see you today, and what to do before you leave.

Dental pain almost always gets worse overnight, and an emergency room can give you antibiotics but cannot treat the tooth. If the problem is a tooth, a dental office is the shorter path in every sense.

Common Emergencies We Treat:

  • Severe toothache and tooth pain
  • Knocked out (avulsed) teeth
  • Cracked, chipped, or broken teeth
  • Dental abscess and infections
  • Lost fillings and crowns
  • Broken dentures or orthodontic appliances

Getting here from El Monte

Our office is at 436 N. Sunset Ave, West Covina, CA 917905.4 miles from El Monte, about 12 minutes without traffic. Take the 10 east and exit at Sunset Avenue, then head north. Valley Boulevard and Garvey Avenue both work as surface routes if the freeway is backed up. Parking on site is free.

El Monte patients usually come to us along the 10, which makes the trip shorter in practice than the map distance suggests. If you commute east in the morning, we are already on your route.

Where our El Monte patients come from

We see patients from El Monte Station, Flair Park, Valley Boulevard, the Santa Fe Trail Historical Park area and South El Monte. If you are anywhere in El Monte, you are inside the four-to-five-mile radius most of our practice sits in — El Monte is west of us along the 10, and the trip is one freeway exit or one main road for almost everyone.

Why El Monte patients come to us for emergency dental care

The short version is the credential. Dr. Homan Hanasab holds a DDS plus an MS in Periodontics and a Certificate of Advanced Graduate Studies, and he is the LA Clippers team dentist. A general practice closer to you can handle a cleaning and a filling; what it usually cannot do is place implants into compromised bone, graft it first, or manage gum disease that has gone past the surface. Those all happen in this office, with one clinician responsible from the scan to the final result.

That also means no referral out and back. For a patient driving in from El Monte, the practical difference is fewer trips, not just a shorter one.

Questions from El Monte

El Monte patient FAQ

How quickly can I be seen if I'm calling from El Monte?

Call (626) 337-7271 and we will tell you on the phone whether we can fit you in today. The drive is about 5.4 miles, about 12 minutes without traffic. Take the 10 east and exit at Sunset Avenue, then head north. Valley Boulevard and Garvey Avenue both work as surface routes if the freeway is backed up.

Should I go to an emergency room instead?

For most dental problems, no. An ER can give you antibiotics and pain relief, but it cannot treat the tooth, so you end up making the dental appointment anyway. Go to the ER for uncontrolled bleeding, trouble breathing or swallowing, facial trauma, or swelling that is closing your airway.

What should I do on the drive over?

For a knocked-out adult tooth, hold it by the crown, not the root, and keep it in milk or in your own saliva. For swelling, a cold pack against the outside of the cheek. For bleeding, firm pressure with clean gauze. Take your usual pain relief unless you have been told not to.
