Important COVID-19 updates:
As some states are relaxing their dental-procedure restrictions in some or all of their counties, the ADA recommends referring to applicable State guidelines to determine the dental care available for your area.
If you’re experiencing a dental emergency, you should:
- Contact your dentist
- Call United Concordia’s dental emergency line at 1-800-858-0051*
* This line is to be used for dental emergencies only. It’s available from 6 p.m. Sunday to 10 p.m. Friday, Eastern Time.

You may also seek care for a dental emergency from your closest emergency room. The healthcare system may be overwhelmed with medical patients at this time. We recommend that you first contact your dentist and/or United Concordia for assistance for dental emergencies.
