COVID-19 update: To ensure the safety of both patients and dental staff, the American Dental Association is asking that all elective (non-emergency) dental procedures be postponed at this time. Click here for more information on dental emergencies.

If you are experiencing a dental emergency (emergency dental care includes any treatment necessary to relieve pain, treat infection, or control bleeding) you should:

• Contact your dentist and follow State by State guidelines (remote service members) or military dental treatment facility (DTF-referred service members). If you are unsure of your status (remote or DTF-referred), click here. There is also available guidance for Academy Cadets and Midshipmen.

• Call United Concordia’s dental emergency line at 1-800-858-0051*

* Note that this line is to be used for dental emergencies only.  It is available Sunday, 6:00 pm - Friday, 10:00 pm, Eastern Time.

You may also seek care for a dental emergency from your closest emergency room; however, please understand that the healthcare system may be overwhelmed with medical patients at this time and it is recommended that you contact your dentist and/or United Concordia for assistance.
