Relieve Your Tooth Pain With Urgent Dental Care

Sometimes it doesn't matter how careful you are about your oral health. Emergencies can still happen. You might knock out a tooth while playing sports. You could be eating and break a tooth simply by biting down the wrong way. Or maybe your teeth are already susceptible to injury because you haven't been to the dentist in a long time. Routine dental cleanings and exams can help prevent many oral health problems before they become more serious issues that require immediate care.

But whatever led to your dental emergency, we can perform a variety of procedures to relieve your pain and restore your mouth:

  • Tooth Fillings - We'll treat your cavity with a metal-free, tooth-colored filling to preserve your tooth and the appearance of your smile.
  • Dental Crowns - If a cavity is too large for a standard filling, or if your tooth is severely damaged, we can often save it by covering it with a dental crown that looks and functions as well as a natural tooth.
  • Dental Implants - If you have lost one or more teeth, we can go over all of your replacement options, including dental implants. With an implant, your restoration will stay firmly in place and keep your jawbone strong and healthy.
  • Root Canals - Our in-house endodontist performs root canals right here in our office, even on weekends by appointment. We'll remove the infection and protect your tooth with a dental crown.
  • Tooth Extractions - We'll do all we can to save your natural teeth whenever possible. But when it isn't, we can remove a problem tooth to preserve your oral health.

You can have peace of mind about your procedure, thanks to our experienced team and patient-friendly technology. We also offer a variety of sedation options to calm your nerves. You'll feel completely relaxed and comfortable, from start to finish.

Don't suffer any longer than necessary! For help from your emergency dentist in Oxnard, CA, call Anacapa Dental Art Institute right away. You can also schedule online if you prefer.

Dr. Jivraj is a perfectionist, top-notch, and he expects nothing less from his team. Point blank, he's the best. He laid out a plan. He said, "In 6-8 months I'll have you crunching on an apple." I had no doubt that he meant every word. He exuded confidence and made me feel completely...

Dr. Jivraj is a perfectionist, top-notch, and he expects nothing less from his team. Point blank, he's the best. He laid out a plan. He said, "In 6-8 months I'll have you crunching on an apple." I had no doubt that he meant every word. He exuded confidence and made me feel completely comfortable. His wonderful financing department came up with a plan that was affordable for me, and got me interest-free financing for up to 2 years. Not once throughout this process was I made to feel uncomfortable or embarrassed, and they treated me like family.

This place is professional, comprehensive, and nice. Loved the staff and loved the holistic look that the doctor took to consider my orthodontics (being done elsewhere) and sleep apnea and making requests of the orthodontist to account for the issue. Anyway, I just went in for routine cleaning,...

Loved the staff and loved the holistic look that the doctor took to consider my orthodontics (being done elsewhere) and sleep apnea and making requests of the orthodontist to account for the issue. Anyway, I just went in for routine cleaning, and it was much more service-oriented and comprehensive than I expected.

I was immediately impressed by the attentiveness from the employees at the front desk. They were joyful and made you feel immediately at ease. They then took me on a tour of the facility. The rooms were super clean and all equipment is state of the art. I was introduced to pretty much everyone on staff and they were all happy and friendly. After having X-rays, I then met with the dentist. He was very knowledgeable and I agreed with everything he discussed in regards to the problems with my teeth.

Traveling from overseas and broke my dentures the day before departure. Once in LA, I started looking for a dentist. I made an appointment with Dr. J. I was my lucky day:) after crossing the threshold of Anacapa I felt at home. I couldn't believe it but the Dr. took my dentures and fixed them, so just saw my desperation saw me , not only my money. the tears poured into my eyes by themselves. After this we talked about options, yes, it's a lot of money, but it's worth it. Today I have lower fixed dentures and love them.
