Services
You and your family can take advantage of a full range of dental services here at The Dental ER. During each visit, you will be treated by trained professionals who will provide top quality care to prevent dental problems and treat current conditions. Helping our patients maintain a healthy mouth and smile is the main goal of general dentistry.
Was terrified of dentists from bad past experiences but I broke a tooth and I had to find someone. I've been terrified of the dentist since a child, but going to The Dental ER on 2/9/2018 put my fears to rest. Dr. Dave was wonderful, quick, friendly, and made the experience of having my wisdom tooth extracted less scary.
Here at The Dental ER, we love meeting new patients. Part of easing your concerns is explaining what you can expect from our practice. When you are new to our office, we put in the effort to provide you with a positive and comforting experience. Once you have been with us for a while, you can continue to expect the highest level of service.
Helping our patients maintain a healthy mouth and smile is the main goal of general dentistry. We prefer to provide more minor, preventive care than to see patients suffer with more intensive treatments from a problem that was not managed in time. We want to ensure that your oral health is in its optimal state and positively contributing to the health of your entire body.
A beautiful smile is one of the most sought after cosmetic features in the world. People from all backgrounds and professions want a bright, straight smile, and we are here to help turn that desire into reality. Whether through minor adjustments or major treatment plans, our cosmetic dentistry practice aims to improve your smile and help you build confidence in the way your teeth look.

While on vacation in Macomb Il I had a problem with a tooth three days' worth of pain I contacted " The Dental ER. I told them my problem and was told to show up first thing the next day. I arrived the next day a little early the young lady at the front desk assisted me in filling out the paperwork, then straight to the back for the Dentist. At 60 years old I've visited many dentists this guy was the best, he told me my options and went to work. David Allen is the best in the business all of staff were top notch.
If in that area again in would feel honored or him to work on me.

Dr Allen is absolutely the best dentist l have ever been to. Other dentist could take a page or two from his book. I broke a front tooth off at the gum line. I arrived at 9am the next morning and left at 10am with a new tooth.
Outstanding. Thanks

They did great work but when it came to billing they messed up my entire credit. Every time I reached out to try and get this resolved, they never answered and never returned my call. Very disappointed and will never go back or refer.

I had put off going to the dentist for far too long, I had more teeth that needed work than didn’t. They have already transformed my smile into something I’m proud to show off! I actually look forward to going to the dentist and cannot wait to see the final result! 😁
