Scheduling emergency dental appointments same-day or next-morning

Patients with urgent dental pain (broken tooth, abscess, severe sensitivity) cannot find same-day or early-morning appointments through standard dental office phone lines, leading them to use ERs or endure pain. Existing apps like Zocdoc have minimal dentist participation in most regions and show limited emergency slots.
