What we treat
Urgent Care, Then Everything Else
Urgent visits come first. We are also a general dental office for exams, cleanings, fillings and crowns.
Toothaches
We look for the cause, take X-rays when your dentist decides you need them, and go through your options before treating anything.
Exam and X-rays your dentist decides on
Numbing before treatment
A plan you approve first
Broken and chipped teeth
A broken tooth can often be repaired. Your dentist looks at how much is left and explains what each repair involves.
Bonding and fillings
Crowns when a tooth needs one
Smoothing a sharp edge
Lost fillings and crowns
Keep the crown if you can and call us. We check the tooth underneath and tell you whether to re-cement the crown or make a new one.

Root canals and extractions

Why Volt
Time Held Back for Urgent Visits
Dr. Helmut Varga founded Volt Dental on a plain idea: a toothache or a broken tooth shouldn't wait for the next open week. Each day we hold time for urgent visits, and the front desk answers the phone to find out what happened and what to do first.
We can't promise a visit on the same day, and some problems belong in an emergency room. When that's the case, we say so.
Urgent time each day
We keep part of the schedule open for urgent visits, when we can.
Comfort first
Numbing before treatment, breaks when you raise a hand, and headphones if you want them.
X-rays when needed
Your dentist decides when X-rays help, then shows you what they found.
Plans in writing
You hear your options and get the estimate before any treatment.
What Counts as a Dental Emergency
Call us for any of these. If you are not sure, call and ask.
Broken or cracked tooth
Save any pieces you can find, press clean gauze on any bleeding and call us. We tell you whether to come in today.
A toothache that won't settle
Pain or swelling that keeps you up, or does not ease with a rinse of warm water, needs a look.
A lost filling or crown
Keep the crown if you can and call us. The tooth is more sensitive without it.
A knocked-out tooth
Time matters. Hold it by the crown, not the root, and call us right away.

Patient Stories
What Our Patients Say
What patients say about an urgent visit.
“I cracked a tooth on a Friday morning and called as soon as the office opened. The front desk told me what to do until I got there, and the dentist saw me that afternoon.”
Mateo ZapataUrgent visit“I get nervous in the chair. My dentist stopped every time I raised my hand and told me what she was about to do before she did it.”
Lauryn WhitleyPatient“A lost filling had me worried all weekend. They gave me a time first thing Monday and wrote down the estimate before the work started.”
Archie BurneyPatient“I called about a toothache on my lunch break. The person who answered asked good questions and told me honestly that they could see me the next morning.”
Kate StephensPatient“My son's tooth was knocked loose at a game. They told us what to do on the way over and were calm with all of us when we got there.”
