Friendly and easy-going staff, simple and efficient process, and most importantly excellent doctor. We had an emergent situation and came here just because other places were all closed. Dr. Joo provided accurate evaluation, proper treatment, and professional guidance - everything perfectly done and latterly confirmed, verified, and praised by our regular/family dentist. This is a five star place.

The most caring crew that helped me with all the options that wouldn’t bankrupt me! So gentle and efficient, would recommend to anyone having a dental emergency especially on a weekend or Friday! Called me back and got me in same day and I was out in an hour and a half! Now I’m set up for long term tooth health.

I had an excellent experience here. I have a set of porcelain veneers I had put in about 8 years ago by a different dentist. Since then, most of those veneers have popped off at least once. Each time I go to an emergency dentist to get the veneer recemented. This time I found Emergency Dentist of Austin and they were able to book me in right away to get my veneer back in. Not only did I get SAME DAY service (on a Sunday of memorial weekend!) the team was super professional, kind and gentle. I highly recommend this place and their work.
