We have all had situations where we needed emergency care that didn\u2019t seem like it was available. And we have made it our personal goal to make sure that you, reader, are never in that same position.<\/p>\n<p>We are working to achieve this mission in two ways. The first: our toll-free helpline at <strong>1 (888) 420-6826<\/strong>. This number will always be available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 52 weeks a year and staffed with highly-trained and courteous referral professionals who will put you in touch with a dentist who can give you the best possible personalized care for <em>you<\/em> at the soonest available appointment. Through this number, we have been matching patients with dentists for more than 5 years.<\/p>\n<p>Our second focus is our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.emergencydentistsusa.com\/blog\/\">Dental Blog<\/a>. We believe that well-informed patients are patients who will be better equipped to find the care that they need. Through our blog, we want to educate our readers about the process of going to an emergency dentist, the symptoms they might be experiencing, and what they can do at home to take great care of their teeth.<\/p>\n<p>Dr. Maxine Feinberg, President of the American Dental Association, said in a 2015 statement that \u201cDespite all the advances in our ability to prevent, detect and treat dental diseases, too many Americans \u2013 for a variety of reasons \u2013 are not enjoying the best possible oral health.\u201d Through our programs of education and professional referral services, we promise to do everything in our power to change that assessment.<\/p>\n<div style=\"float: right; padding: 10px;\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-54020\" src=\"https:\/\/www.emergencydentistsusa.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/values-emergency-dentists-300x300.jpg\" alt=\"values emergency dentists\" width=\"500\" height=\"500\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.emergencydentistsusa.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/values-emergency-dentists-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.emergencydentistsusa.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/values-emergency-dentists-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.emergencydentistsusa.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/values-emergency-dentists.jpg 500w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/div>\n<h2>Our Core Values<\/h2>\n<p>Our loyalty will always be to the patient, not the profits.<\/p>\n<p>We will provide our patients with excellent customer service that is available at any time of the day or night, even on weekends and holidays.<\/p>\n<p>We will staff our helpline with US-based experienced call representatives who will understand our patients\u2019 symptoms and know how to set up an appointment.<\/p>\n<p>We will continue to help provide care to those with and without insurance, to those who do and do not need payment plans, because <strong>everyone deserves to live a healthy pain-free life.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>We will continue to only work with and hire intelligent professionals who are experts in their field.<\/p>\n<p>We will continue to provide only factual, evidence-based information on our website and Dental Blog.<\/p>\n<p>We know that we can only help our customers if they trust us and believe in what we do, and we will seek to always be accountable for our actions, to own up to any mistake we make, and to behave with honesty and integrity.<\/p>\n<p>We will uphold these values as individuals and as a team.<\/p>\n<h2>Our Expert Team<\/h2>\n<p>We are experts in dental marketing who have been working with dentists and patients since 2013.
