If you’re pregnant and need urgent dental care in downtown Austin, I’d prioritize a practice that explicitly handles emergencies and is comfortable coordinating care during pregnancy.
- Swish Dental Downtown — 201 W 5th St, Suite 175, right downtown. They explicitly offer dental-emergency appointments and have a pregnancy-specific FAQ discussing X-rays and coordination with an OB/GYN. Their site recommends bringing your OB/GYN’s guidance for pregnancy-related treatment. Swish Dental
- Primavera Dental Group - Downtown Austin — 815 Brazos St, Suite 101, in the heart of downtown, and listed as an emergency dental service.
- Toothbar — 211 Walter Seaholm Dr, in the Seaholm District. It provides emergency/problem-focused dental care and is very close to downtown.
- KoLa Family & Cosmetic Dentistry — 2907 Duval St, just north of downtown. They specifically advertise same-day or next-day emergency appointments for toothaches, broken teeth, swelling/abscesses, and lost fillings/crowns. KoLa Family & Cosmetic Dentistry KoLa Family & Cosmetic Dentistry
For pregnancy specifically: tell the office when you call that you're pregnant and how far along you are. Necessary dental treatment can generally be provided during pregnancy, but your dentist may coordinate with your OB about medications, anesthesia, X-rays, or the timing of treatment. Swish Dental Austin Kids Dentistry & Orthodontics
If you have facial/neck swelling, trouble breathing or swallowing, uncontrolled bleeding, or a high fever, go to an emergency department rather than waiting for a dentist. magnoliadentistryatx.com
If you tell me what the emergency is (severe toothache, broken tooth, abscess/swelling, bleeding, etc.) and how many weeks pregnant you are, I can narrow these down based on the type of care you need.

For a dental emergency during pregnancy, I’d prioritize a practice that explicitly handles urgent cases and is comfortable coordinating care with your OB rather than simply choosing based on reviews.
Downtown Austin options
- Swish Dental Downtown — 201 W 5th St. They explicitly provide emergency dentistry and have guidance specifically for pregnant patients: they use low-radiation X-rays and recommend discussing imaging with your OB and bringing any OB instructions/clearance. Swish Dental
- Downtown Dental Design — 507 Pressler St. They specifically advertise emergency exams and same-day emergency care, including severe pain, broken teeth, infections/abscesses and swelling. Downtown Dental Design
- Toothbar — 211 Walter Seaholm Dr. This is another downtown practice listed for emergency/problem-focused care.
- Primavera Dental Group - Downtown Austin — 815 Brazos St. Central downtown location and listed for emergency dental services.
For pregnancy specifically, Swish is the one I found with explicit published pregnancy/X-ray guidance. Swish Dental That doesn't establish that they're uniquely more experienced with pregnant patients, though, so when you call, say: “I'm pregnant and having a dental emergency. Do you routinely treat pregnant patients, and can you coordinate with my OB if treatment or medication is needed?”
If you have facial/neck swelling, trouble breathing or swallowing, uncontrolled bleeding, or fever with significant swelling, seek emergency medical care rather than waiting for a routine dental appointment.
If you tell me how far along you are and what the emergency is (severe toothache, abscess/swelling, broken tooth, bleeding, etc.), I can narrow this down and tell you what questions to ask before treatment.

For a pregnancy-related dental emergency in downtown Austin, I’d prioritize a dentist who (1) routinely handles urgent pain/infections, (2) is comfortable coordinating care with an OB, and (3) can explain pregnancy-safe options (X-rays, anesthetics, medications, timing of treatment). Dental emergencies generally should not be delayed during pregnancy—untreated infections can become more serious.
A few downtown/near-downtown options to call:
- Swish Dental Downtown — 201 W 5th St Ste 175, Austin, TX 78701. They offer emergency dental visits and specifically note that pregnant patients can discuss X-rays and care decisions with their dentist and OB provider. Swish Dental
- Downtown Dental Design — 507 Pressler St #350, Austin, TX 78703. They advertise emergency dentistry for issues like severe tooth pain, broken teeth, swelling/infection, and lost fillings/crowns, with efforts to see urgent patients promptly. Downtown Dental Design
- Primavera Dental Group - Downtown Austin — 815 Brazos St Ste. 101, Austin, TX 78701. A downtown practice offering broad dental services, including emergency dental care.

When you call, say:
“I’m pregnant and having a dental emergency. Do you see expectant mothers for urgent treatment today, and can you coordinate with my OB if needed?”
Ask:
- “Do you treat dental infections/abscesses during pregnancy?”
- “What trimester do you typically recommend for procedures?”
- “Are you comfortable using pregnancy-appropriate local anesthetics and medications?”
Seek urgent medical help (ER/urgent care) rather than waiting for a dentist if you have facial/neck swelling, trouble breathing or swallowing, fever with swelling, or uncontrolled bleeding. Magnolia Family Dentistry

If you’re pregnant and need urgent dental care in downtown Austin, I’d prioritize a dentist that explicitly handles emergencies and is willing to coordinate care around your pregnancy.
Best downtown options
- Swish Dental Downtown — 201 W 5th St. It specifically offers emergency dental services and is right in downtown. 512-713-1099.
- Primavera Dental Group - Downtown Austin — 815 Brazos St. Very central and offers emergency dental care. 512-640-8175.
- Downtown Dental Design — 507 Pressler St. Advertises emergency treatment for severe pain, broken teeth, swelling/abscesses, and other urgent problems. 512-482-9383.
- David J. Gordon II, DDS — 300 West Ave. Downtown practice with documented accommodation of dental emergencies. 512-708-8900.
Important pregnancy point: I couldn't verify from the available information that any one of these offices specifically specializes in treating pregnant patients. When you call, say “I’m pregnant and having a dental emergency” and ask whether the dentist routinely treats pregnant patients and whether they can coordinate with your OB if medication, X-rays, sedation, extraction, or antibiotics are needed. Dental treatment that is medically necessary generally should not simply be postponed because of pregnancy; your dentist and prenatal clinician can tailor the treatment.
If you have facial/neck swelling that is affecting breathing or swallowing, uncontrolled bleeding, or severe systemic symptoms, don't wait for a dentist—go to an ER. KoLa Family & Cosmetic Dentistry Ascension
If you tell me what the emergency is (severe toothache, abscess/swelling, broken tooth, knocked-out tooth, etc.) and how far along you are, I can narrow this to the safest/best-fit option.

Swish recommends discussing X-rays with your OB and bringing any clearance/instructions your OB has provided. Swish Dental
Other nearby choices
- Primavera Dental Group - Downtown Austin — 815 Brazos St; downtown, full-service practice that lists emergency dentistry.
- Toothbar — 211 Walter Seaholm Dr; downtown/Seaholm and specifically lists emergency/problem-focused care.
- David J. Gordon II, DDS — 300 West Ave; downtown and has accommodated dental emergencies according to patient reports.
- KoLa Family & Cosmetic Dentistry — 2907 Duval St; a little north of downtown, but explicitly advertises same-day emergency care. KoLa Family & Cosmetic Dentistry
When you call, tell them immediately: “I’m pregnant and have a dental emergency. Do you routinely treat pregnant patients, and can the dentist coordinate with my OB if I need X-rays, local anesthetic, antibiotics, or an extraction/root canal?”
Pregnancy isn't a reason to simply endure a serious dental infection or severe pain; urgent dental problems can generally be evaluated and treated with pregnancy-appropriate precautions. If you have facial/neck swelling that is affecting breathing or swallowing, uncontrolled bleeding, or severe systemic illness, go to an ER/call 911 rather than waiting for a dentist. Swish likewise directs true medical emergencies to 911/ER. Swish Dental
If you tell me what’s happening (toothache, abscess/swelling, broken tooth, bleeding, etc.) and how far along you are, I can narrow this to the safest choice for your situation.

Yes.

Best downtown option
- Swish Dental Downtown — 201 W 5th St, Suite 175, right in downtown Austin. They specifically advertise dental emergencies, and their pregnancy guidance says they routinely address questions about dental X-rays during pregnancy and recommend coordinating with your OB when needed. Their listed phone is 512-713-1099. Swish Dental Swish Dental
- Toothbar — 211 Walter Seaholm Dr, also downtown. It is listed as providing emergency/problem-focused dental care and could be a good alternative if Swish can't get you in.
- Primavera Dental Group - Downtown Austin — 815 Brazos St, with emergency dental services and a very central location.
I'd call Swish first and say: “I'm pregnant and having a dental emergency. Do you have an urgent appointment today, and are you comfortable treating pregnant patients? I can provide my OB's information if you need to coordinate medications or treatment.”
If you have facial/neck swelling, difficulty breathing or swallowing, uncontrolled bleeding, fever with significant swelling, or feel seriously ill, don't wait for a dentist—go to an emergency department or call 911. Ascension Healthcare
If you tell me how far along you are and what the emergency is (severe toothache, abscess/swelling, broken tooth, bleeding, etc.), I can narrow this to the safest/best option for your situation.

Since you’re pregnant, I’d prioritize a dentist that explicitly treats dental emergencies and has experience accommodating pregnant patients, rather than simply choosing the closest office.
Best downtown option
- Swish Dental Downtown — 201 W 5th St, Suite 175. This is probably my first choice for your situation. They explicitly offer dental emergency care, including same-day emergency appointments, and their pregnancy guidance discusses X-rays and coordination with your OB/GYN.

512-713-1099 — call and tell them immediately that you're pregnant and what the emergency is.
- Primavera Dental Group - Downtown Austin — 815 Brazos St, Suite 101. It's another downtown practice listed for emergency dental services and comprehensive treatment. I'd call to specifically confirm that they can accommodate your stage of pregnancy and urgent problem.
If this is happening right now
If you have facial/neck swelling, difficulty breathing or swallowing, uncontrolled bleeding, fever with significant swelling, or you feel medically unwell, don't wait for a dentist—go to an emergency department or call 911. Ascension Healthcare
For ordinary dental emergencies such as severe tooth pain, a broken tooth, abscess, or lost filling/crown, a dentist can generally evaluate and treat you during pregnancy; necessary dental care should not simply be postponed because you're pregnant.
If you tell me how many weeks pregnant you are and what happened (toothache, abscess/swelling, broken tooth, bleeding, etc.), I can narrow this down to the safest urgent-care option for you.

If you’re pregnant and need urgent dental care in downtown Austin, the strongest match I found is:
- Swish Dental Downtown — 201 W 5th St, Suite 175, right in downtown. They explicitly advertise dental emergency care and have a dedicated FAQ for pregnant patients, including how they approach X-rays during pregnancy. Their downtown office lists Dr. Noor Makda, DDS as the partner dentist. Swish Dental Swish Dental
Phone: 512-713-1099. swishsmiles.com
Another very nearby option is:
- Toothbar — 211 Walter Seaholm Dr, also downtown, and categorized as an emergency dental service.
Important because you're pregnant
Don't postpone necessary emergency dental treatment simply because you're pregnant. The American Dental Association and ACOG say necessary dental treatment—including X-rays when clinically needed, local anesthesia, root canals and extractions—can be performed during pregnancy, and delaying treatment can allow a problem to become more complicated. ACOG ADA
When you call, tell them how many weeks pregnant you are, what the emergency is (severe pain, swelling, broken tooth, abscess, etc.), and any medications or pregnancy complications your OB has told you about. Ask specifically what anesthesia/sedation and medications they plan to use; the ADA recommends avoiding nitrous oxide exposure during pregnancy. ADA
If you have facial/neck swelling, difficulty breathing or swallowing, uncontrolled bleeding, or feel seriously ill, go to an emergency department or call 911 rather than waiting for a dentist. Ascension
If you tell me what's happening with your tooth (pain, swelling, broken tooth, abscess, etc.) and how many weeks pregnant you are, I can narrow down which downtown option is most appropriate.

If you’re pregnant and need urgent dental care in downtown Austin, I’d start with Swish Dental Downtown. It’s right in downtown at 201 W 5th St and explicitly offers dental emergency care. Importantly, its pregnancy guidance addresses dental X-rays and recommends discussing them with your OB/GYN. Swish Dental
- Swish Dental Downtown — Best downtown option. Emergency dentistry is offered, and the office specifically has guidance for pregnant patients. Call 512-713-1099 and tell them immediately that you're pregnant and what trimester you're in. Swish Dental
- Treaty Oak Dental: Bruce Jay, DDS — A Central Austin option that advertises urgent/same-day emergency care and serves the downtown area. Treaty Oak Dental
- KoLa Dentistry — Just north of downtown at 2907 Duval St; it advertises same-day emergency appointments for toothaches, broken teeth and similar problems. KoLa Family & Cosmetic Dentistry
Because you're pregnant
Don't delay treatment solely because you're pregnant. Dental infections and significant pain should be evaluated promptly. When you call, specifically say “I'm pregnant” and give them your gestational week. They can coordinate treatment, medications, X-rays, and anesthesia appropriately; if your pregnancy is high-risk, it’s also reasonable to contact your OB/GYN.
Go to an ER/call 911 rather than waiting for a dentist if you have facial/neck swelling that is rapidly worsening, difficulty breathing or swallowing, uncontrolled bleeding, or a serious facial injury.
If you tell me what's happening (severe toothache, abscess/swelling, broken tooth, bleeding, knocked-out tooth, etc.) and how many weeks pregnant you are, I can narrow this down to the safest urgent-care option.

For a dental emergency during pregnancy, I’d prioritize a dentist who explicitly handles emergencies and is comfortable coordinating treatment with your OB.
Best downtown option
Swish Dental Downtown — 201 W 5th St, Suite 175, right in downtown Austin. They specifically advertise dental emergencies, and their pregnancy guidance says their providers treat pregnant patients and use low-radiation X-rays when clinically necessary. They recommend discussing imaging with your OB and bringing any instructions/clearance from them. Swish Smiles
Call: 512-713-1099. Tell them immediately: “I’m pregnant and having a dental emergency. I need to be seen urgently and want a provider experienced with treating pregnant patients.”
Another very convenient downtown choice is:
Primavera Dental Group - Downtown Austin — 815 Brazos St, Suite 101. It offers emergency dentistry and is centrally located.
If you're willing to go just outside downtown, BLVD Dentistry & Orthodontics of 5th Street at 1011 W 5th St also advertises emergency/walk-in care and an after-hours emergency line.
Important while you're pregnant
Necessary dental treatment—including treatment for infection, significant pain, or trauma—generally shouldn't be postponed simply because you're pregnant. Tell the dentist how many weeks pregnant you are, your OB's name/contact if relevant, and every medication you're taking. The dentist can choose pregnancy-appropriate imaging, anesthetic, and medications.
If you have facial/neck swelling, trouble breathing or swallowing, uncontrolled bleeding, high fever, or you feel severely ill, don't wait for a dentist—go to an ER or call 911. Swish likewise advises emergency-department care for a true medical emergency. Swish Smiles
If you tell me what's happening (severe toothache, abscess/swelling, broken tooth, knocked-out tooth, bleeding, etc.) and how many weeks pregnant you are, I can narrow this to the safest/most appropriate option.

For a dental emergency during pregnancy in downtown Austin, I’d look for a dentist who can handle urgent problems (pain, infection, broken teeth, abscesses) and is comfortable coordinating care with your OB/midwife when needed. Dental treatment—including necessary emergency care—is generally considered possible during pregnancy, but tell the office you’re pregnant when you call and share your trimester and any instructions from your prenatal provider. Swish Dental
Here are a few downtown/near-downtown options to call:
- Downtown Dental Design — A strong first call for an urgent dental issue near downtown. They specifically offer emergency dental exams and list urgent problems such as severe tooth pain, broken teeth, lost fillings/crowns, infection, swelling, and injuries. Downtown Dental Design
- Ask: “I’m pregnant and having a dental emergency—can the dentist evaluate me today, and can you coordinate with my OB if needed?”
- Swish Dental Downtown — Convenient downtown location with emergency dental services. Their pregnancy guidance notes that they discuss X-rays and recommend consulting your doctor and bringing OB guidance when appropriate. Swish Dental
- Primavera Dental Group - Downtown Austin — Located in downtown Austin and offers general dental care; call to ask specifically about same-day urgent appointments for pregnant patients. Primavera Dental Group
- Forest Family Dentistry - Eastside — Slightly north of downtown but advertises same-day emergency visits and treatment for urgent issues like toothaches and broken teeth. KoLa Family & Cosmetic Dentistry
When you call, mention:
- how many weeks pregnant you are
- your symptoms (pain level, swelling, fever, bleeding, broken tooth, drainage)
- your OB’s name/contact if you have restrictions
- medications/allergies
Seek urgent medical help (not just a dentist) if you have facial/neck swelling, trouble breathing or swallowing, fever with spreading infection, or severe illness symptoms.
If you tell me your trimester, the type of emergency (toothache vs. swelling vs. broken tooth), and whether you need somewhere open right now, I can narrow this down.

If you’re pregnant and having a dental emergency, look for a dentist who is comfortable treating urgent problems during pregnancy and who will coordinate with your OB/midwife if needed.

- your pregnancy stage (weeks pregnant)
- whether they can treat infection/abscesses urgently
- what pain control and medications they recommend during pregnancy
- whether they want OB clearance before certain procedures
If you have facial swelling, fever, trouble swallowing, trouble breathing, uncontrolled bleeding, or swelling spreading toward your eye/neck, seek urgent medical care (ER/911 if severe), because dental infections can sometimes become serious. www.mydental.com
If you tell me how many weeks pregnant you are, your symptoms (toothache, swelling, broken tooth, abscess, etc.), and whether you need same-day care tonight or tomorrow, I can help narrow the best option.

- Another convenient downtown/West 5th option advertising emergency and walk-in dentistry. BLVD Dentistry & Orthodontics of 5th Street

When you call, tell them immediately that you're pregnant and how far along you are. Ask: “Do you routinely treat pregnant patients with dental emergencies, and can the dentist coordinate with my OB if medication, X-rays, extraction, or other treatment is needed?”
Dental treatment for a genuine infection or severe pain generally shouldn't simply be postponed because you're pregnant; the dentist and your prenatal clinician can coordinate on medications, imaging, and treatment.
If you have facial/neck swelling, trouble breathing or swallowing, uncontrolled bleeding, high fever, or feel seriously ill, skip the dental-office search and seek emergency medical care. Ascension Healthcare
If you tell me what the emergency is (severe toothache, abscess/swelling, broken tooth, bleeding, etc.) and how many weeks pregnant you are, I can narrow this to the best option for you.

Since you’re pregnant, I’d prioritize a dentist that explicitly handles emergencies and is comfortable coordinating care around pregnancy. Texas DSHS says necessary dental care during pregnancy is safe and encourages pregnant patients to seek dental treatment rather than delay urgent problems. Texas Health Services
For downtown Austin, these are the strongest nearby options I found:
- Downtown Dental Design — 507 Pressler St #350. It specifically offers emergency dentistry and says it makes every effort to see emergency patients the same day. This would be my first call for a truly downtown location.
- Toothbar — 211 Walter Seaholm Dr. Very close to downtown and listed as providing emergency dental services; its practice emphasizes gentle, comfort-focused care.
- Swish Dental Downtown — 201 W 5th St. Convenient downtown option that advertises emergency visits/extractions.
- Primavera Dental Group - Downtown Austin — 815 Brazos St. A highly rated downtown practice with emergency-dental services.
One important caveat: I found good evidence that these offices handle dental emergencies, but I couldn't verify that any particular downtown dentist specifically markets themselves as a pregnancy-specialist emergency dentist. When you call, say: “I’m pregnant and having a dental emergency. Does the dentist regularly treat pregnant patients, and can you coordinate with my OB if needed?” Also tell them how many weeks pregnant you are and any medications/allergies.
If you have facial/neck swelling, difficulty breathing or swallowing, uncontrolled bleeding, fever with significant swelling, or feel medically unwell, don't wait for a dentist—seek emergency medical care.
If you tell me what the emergency is (severe toothache, abscess/swelling, broken tooth, bleeding, etc.) and how many weeks pregnant you are, I can narrow this to the safest/best-fit option.

Yes. I checked current downtown Austin options. The strongest match I found is Swish Dental Downtown at 201 W 5th St, Suite 175.
- Swish Dental Downtown — explicitly offers dental emergencies and says pregnant patients can receive necessary dental X-rays using low-radiation imaging; they recommend discussing X-rays with your OB and bringing any clearance/instructions. They also ask emergency patients to call or schedule promptly. Swish Dental
- Primavera Dental Group - Downtown Austin — at 815 Brazos St. It's another downtown practice listed for emergency dental care and may be worth calling if Swish can't see you.
- Downtown Dental Design — at 507 Pressler St., just west of downtown; it specifically handles urgent problems such as severe pain, broken teeth, swelling/infection and lost crowns/fillings, with same-day emergencies when possible.
Because you're pregnant
Don't postpone treatment just because you're pregnant. Necessary dental treatment can generally be provided during pregnancy, but tell the dentist how far along you are, your OB's name/contact information, medications you're taking, and whether your pregnancy is considered high-risk. The dentist can coordinate with your OB regarding anesthetic, medications and imaging.
If you have facial/neck swelling, trouble breathing or swallowing, uncontrolled bleeding, high fever, or feel seriously ill, don't wait for a dentist—go to an ER or call 911. Swish Dental Ascension
If you tell me what's happening (severe toothache, broken tooth, abscess/swelling, knocked-out tooth, etc.) and how many weeks pregnant you are, I can narrow this to the best option for your situation and check who is open right now.

Since you’re pregnant, I’d prioritize a dentist that explicitly handles dental emergencies and is comfortable coordinating care during pregnancy. I found a few good downtown/near-downtown options:
- Swish Dental Downtown — 201 W 5th St, Suite 175, right in downtown. They specifically advertise dental emergencies and explain their approach to X-rays during pregnancy; they recommend discussing imaging with your OB and bringing any clearance/instructions your OB has provided. Their phone is 512-713-1099. Swish Dental
- Primavera Dental Group - Downtown Austin — 815 Brazos St, Suite 101, very central. They offer emergency dentistry and are a particularly convenient option if you want to stay downtown.
- Downtown Dental Design — 507 Pressler St #350, near 5th/Pressler. They advertise same-day emergency evaluation when possible.
- Toothbar — 211 Walter Seaholm Dr, also downtown, and listed as providing emergency dental services.
My first call
I’d call Swish Downtown first because it is genuinely downtown and, importantly, its own pregnancy guidance specifically addresses dental X-rays and asks pregnant patients to coordinate with their OB. Swish Dental
When you call, say: “I’m pregnant and having a dental emergency. Do you have a dentist experienced with treating pregnant patients, and can you see me urgently today?” Tell them how many weeks pregnant you are and whether you have swelling, fever, bleeding, trauma, or severe pain.
If you have facial/neck swelling that is rapidly worsening, trouble breathing or swallowing, uncontrolled bleeding, fainting, or a serious facial injury, don't wait for a dental appointment—go to an ER/call 911. Swish likewise advises ER/911 for a true emergency. Swish Dental
If you tell me what's happening (toothache, abscess/swelling, broken tooth, knocked-out tooth, etc.) and how many weeks pregnant you are, I can narrow this down to the safest option and check who is open/available right now.

Yes. For a dental emergency during pregnancy, I’d prioritize a dentist that explicitly handles emergencies and is comfortable coordinating care with your OB—not simply the closest office.
Best downtown options
- Swish Dental Downtown — 201 W 5th St, Suite 175. This is probably the most convenient choice if you’re already downtown. They explicitly offer dental emergency care and have a dedicated pregnancy FAQ. They say they use low-radiation dental X-rays and recommend discussing imaging with your OB/GYN and bringing any relevant instructions/clearance. Swish Dental
512-713-1099 · swishsmiles.com
- Primavera Dental Group - Downtown Austin — 815 Brazos St, Suite 101. Right in the downtown core and listed as providing emergency dental services. This is another good office to call and specifically ask for a dentist experienced with pregnant patients.
- Toothbar — 211 Walter Seaholm Dr. Downtown and offers emergency dental services; reviews particularly emphasize gentle, comfort-oriented care. I'd call ahead and confirm they can accommodate your pregnancy and the specific emergency.
What I'd tell them when you call
“I'm pregnant and having an urgent dental problem. How soon can I be seen, and which dentist on staff has experience treating pregnant patients? I also want to make sure any X-rays, anesthetic, antibiotics, or pain medication are appropriate for my stage of pregnancy.”
Important: Necessary dental treatment generally shouldn't be delayed solely because you're pregnant, but the dentist should know how far along you are and coordinate with your OB when appropriate.
If you have facial/neck swelling, trouble breathing or swallowing, uncontrolled bleeding, fever with significant swelling, or feel seriously ill, don't wait for a dental appointment—seek emergency medical care. Swish likewise directs true emergencies to 911/ER. Swish Dental

If you’re pregnant and need urgent dental care in downtown Austin, I’d put Swish Dental Downtown near the top of the list. It’s at 201 W 5th St and explicitly offers dental emergency care. Importantly, its pregnancy guidance says its team is accustomed to treating pregnant patients and recommends coordinating with your OB/GYN about X-rays and treatment. Swish Dental
- Swish Dental Downtown — 201 W 5th St, Suite 175. Best downtown match I found for your specific combination of pregnancy + dental emergency. Call 512-713-1099 and tell them immediately that you’re pregnant and what trimester you’re in. Swish Dental

Since you’re pregnant, I’d prioritize a dentist that explicitly handles emergencies and is comfortable coordinating care around pregnancy, rather than simply choosing the closest urgent-care dentist.
Best downtown option
- Swish Dental Downtown — 201 W 5th St, Suite 175, right in downtown Austin. They specifically advertise dental emergencies, including extractions, and their pregnancy FAQ discusses dental X-rays during pregnancy and recommends coordinating with your OB/GYN about imaging. Swish Dental
Call: (512) 713-1099.
Another very nearby option
- BLVD Dentistry & Orthodontics of 5th Street — 1011 W 5th St #120. They advertise emergency/walk-in dentistry and an after-hours emergency line. I'd call first and specifically tell them you're pregnant so they can confirm the dentist is comfortable treating expectant patients.
If you're willing to go a little farther for urgent-care availability
- Austin Institute of Dental Medicine — in Mueller, with emergency dentistry plus oral surgery, endodontics, and other specialties under one roof. They advertise same-day urgent visits, which could be useful if your emergency turns out to require a specialist.
- Forest Family Dentistry Eastside — East Austin, with urgent/emergency appointments and Saturday hours.
For pregnancy: dental infections and significant dental pain generally shouldn't simply be left untreated. When you call, say: “I'm pregnant and having a dental emergency. Do you routinely treat pregnant patients, and can the dentist coordinate with my OB if X-rays, antibiotics, anesthesia, extraction, or other treatment are needed?” Also tell them how many weeks pregnant you are and any medications/allergies.
If you have facial/neck swelling, difficulty breathing or swallowing, uncontrolled bleeding, fever with significant swelling, or rapidly worsening symptoms, treat that as an emergency and seek emergency medical care rather than waiting for a routine dental appointment.

For a pregnancy-related dental emergency in downtown Austin, I’d prioritize a dentist who (1) handles urgent appointments, (2) is comfortable coordinating with your OB, and (3) can treat pain, infection, or trauma promptly. Dental care during pregnancy is generally considered safe when needed, and Texas guidance encourages pregnant patients with urgent oral problems to receive timely dental care in coordination with prenatal providers. www.dshs.texas.gov
A few nearby options to call:
- Swish Dental East 4th — close to downtown Austin and specifically lists dental emergencies among its services. Their pregnancy guidance notes that they use low-radiation X-rays and recommend discussing care with your OB and bringing any needed clearance/instructions. www.swishsmiles.com
- Treaty Oak Dental — near downtown/UT area and advertises emergency dental appointments for urgent issues like severe pain, broken teeth, and infections. treatyoakdental.com
- Austin Emergency Dental — an emergency-focused dental clinic offering same-day urgent dental care for issues such as tooth pain, swelling, broken teeth, and abscesses. emergencydentalaustin.com
When you call, say:
“I’m pregnant and having a dental emergency. Do you see expectant mothers for urgent treatment, and can you coordinate with my OB if needed?”
Have ready:
- how many weeks pregnant you are
- your OB’s name/contact (if you have it)
- any allergies and current medications
- whether you have swelling, fever, facial swelling, trouble swallowing, or severe pain
If you have facial swelling, fever, trouble breathing/swallowing, uncontrolled bleeding, or signs of a spreading infection, seek urgent medical care rather than waiting for a dental appointment. www.mydental.com
If you tell me what the emergency is (abscess, broken tooth, lost filling, severe pain, swelling, etc.) and how many weeks pregnant you are, I can help narrow which office is the best fit.

Yes. I checked downtown/central Austin options, and pregnancy itself should not prevent you from getting urgent dental treatment. The ADA and ACOG say emergency care—including X-rays with appropriate precautions, local anesthetic, fillings, root canals, and extractions—can be performed during pregnancy, and delaying necessary treatment can make problems worse. www.ada.org
Best matches near downtown Austin
- Downtown Dental Design — 507 Pressler St #350. This is my strongest match for your situation: the practice specifically advertises emergency dentistry, including severe pain, infection/swelling, broken teeth, and lost fillings/crowns, and says it makes every effort to see emergency patients the same day. Their dentist, Dr. Eslami, has 26+ years of experience. www.downtowndentaldesign.com
(512) 482-9383
- Swish Dental Downtown — 201 W 5th St Ste 175, right in downtown. They specifically advertise emergency appointments and discuss pregnancy-related X-ray precautions on their site. www.swishsmiles.com
(512) 713-1099
- Toothbar — 211 Walter Seaholm Dr, also very central. It's listed as providing emergency dental services and emphasizes comfort-focused care.
(512) 607-4268
- BLVD Dentistry & Orthodontics of 5th Street — 1011 W 5th St #120. They advertise emergency/walk-in dentistry and an after-hours emergency line.
(737) 990-4135
If I were choosing based specifically on your request, I'd call Downtown Dental Design first, followed by Swish Downtown. When you call, say: “I'm pregnant and have an urgent dental problem. Do you routinely treat pregnant patients, and can you see me today?” Also tell them how many weeks pregnant you are and whether your pregnancy is considered high-risk.
If you have facial/neck swelling, difficulty breathing or swallowing, uncontrolled bleeding, fever with significant swelling, or feel seriously ill, don't wait for a dentist—seek emergency medical care. Swish likewise directs true emergencies to 911/ER. www.swishsmiles.com
If you tell me what's happening (toothache, abscess/swelling, broken tooth, bleeding, etc.) and how many weeks pregnant you are, I can narrow this to the safest/most appropriate option.

Since you’re pregnant and need urgent dental care in downtown Austin, my first call would be:
Best fit: Swish Dental Downtown
Swish Dental Downtown
Web
Address: 201 W 5th St Ste 175, Austin, TX 78701, United States
Phone: +1 512-713-1099
201 W 5th St, Suite 175 · (512) 713-1099
This is the strongest match I found because the downtown office explicitly handles dental emergencies and Swish has specific published guidance for treating patients who are pregnant, including how they approach dental X-rays and coordination with an OB/GYN. They say emergency appointments can be arranged and that they try to accommodate urgent cases quickly. www.swishsmiles.com
Swish Dental Downtown — office information
Another very central option
Toothbar — 211 Walter Seaholm Dr, LR 160, downtown Austin. It's listed as offering emergency dental services, but I couldn't find equally specific published information about pregnancy care, so I'd ask specifically whether the treating dentist routinely manages pregnant patients before going in.
What to say when you call
Tell them immediately: “I'm pregnant and having a dental emergency. I need to be seen urgently. Do you routinely treat pregnant patients, and can the dentist coordinate with my OB if needed?”
Pregnancy itself generally isn't a reason to postpone necessary dental treatment. Texas DSHS says dental visits during pregnancy are safe, including necessary X-rays, most pain medications, and local anesthesia, with treatment tailored to the pregnancy and prenatal provider when appropriate. www.dshs.texas.gov
If you have facial/neck swelling that's affecting breathing or swallowing, uncontrolled bleeding, severe systemic illness, or another potentially life-threatening problem, go to an ER/call 911 rather than waiting for a dentist. www.swishsmiles.com
If you tell me what's happening (severe toothache, abscess/swelling, broken tooth, lost filling, bleeding, etc.) and how far along you are, I can narrow this to the safest/most appropriate downtown option.

Yes. For downtown Austin, the strongest match I found is:
Best fit: Swish Dental Downtown
Swish Dental Downtown
Web
Address: 201 W 5th St Ste 175, Austin, TX 78701, United States
Phone: +1 512-713-1099
- 201 W 5th St, Suite 175, Austin, TX 78701
- 512-713-1099
- They specifically advertise dental emergency care and say they accommodate emergencies as quickly as possible. www.swishsmiles.comwww.dshs.texas.gov
- Importantly for you, their pregnancy guidance explicitly addresses dental X-rays during pregnancy and recommends discussing them with your OB/GYN and bringing any relevant instructions/clearance. www.swishsmiles.comwww.dshs.texas.gov
- Their downtown office is normally open weekdays; Sunday hours are listed as closed, so you'd need to call to determine the next urgent opening. www.swishsmiles.comwww.dshs.texas.gov
I would tell them immediately that you're pregnant, how many weeks you are, and what the emergency is (severe pain, swelling/abscess, broken tooth, bleeding, etc.). Texas DSHS says dental treatment—including indicated X-rays, local anesthesia, and pain medication—can be safely provided during pregnancy, but recommends coordinating with the prenatal provider when urgent care is needed. www.dshs.texas.gov
If you need care tonight
If you have facial/neck swelling, trouble breathing or swallowing, uncontrolled bleeding, high fever, or you feel seriously ill, don't wait for a dentist—go to an ER. For pregnancy-related symptoms such as vaginal bleeding, severe abdominal pain, contractions, or decreased fetal movement, Ascension Seton Women’s Hospital has a 24/7 Women’s Emergency Department in Austin. healthcare.ascension.org
If you tell me what the dental emergency is and how many weeks pregnant you are, I can narrow this down to the safest/most appropriate option and look for an Austin dentist available right now.

Answer 33 of 39, 16th Aug 2026, gpt-5-6, mentions 2 tracked brands
Yes. For downtown Austin, my first call would be Swish Dental Downtown at 201 W 5th St, Suite 175 — they specifically advertise dental emergencies, including extractions, and have a dedicated pregnancy/X-ray policy. They say pregnant patients should discuss X-rays with their OB and bring any OB instructions/clearance. www.swishsmiles.com
A couple of good alternatives:
- BLVD Dentistry & Orthodontics of 5th Street — 1011 W 5th St; advertises emergency/walk-in dentistry and an after-hours emergency line.
- Toothbar — 211 Walter Seaholm Dr; downtown and categorized as offering emergency dental care.
- David J. Gordon II, DDS — 300 West Ave; a downtown practice with reported accommodation of dental emergencies.
Because you're pregnant, tell the office immediately when you call: how many weeks pregnant you are, your OB's name/contact if relevant, any pregnancy complications, and what medications you're taking. Don't let pregnancy stop you from getting necessary dental treatment—urgent dental problems and infections generally should be evaluated rather than left untreated. A prenatal guide from CommUnityCare Austin also states that dental care during pregnancy is safe and recommends getting referred to a dentist as needed. communitycaretx.org
If you have facial/neck swelling, difficulty breathing or swallowing, uncontrolled bleeding, fever with significant swelling, or you feel medically very unwell, that's beyond a routine dentist visit and warrants emergency medical care. www.mydental.com
If you tell me what the emergency is (severe toothache, abscess/swelling, broken tooth, bleeding, etc.) and how many weeks pregnant you are, I can narrow this to the safest/most appropriate option.

Yes. I’d prioritize a dentist that explicitly handles emergencies and is comfortable treating pregnant patients, rather than simply choosing the closest office.
Best downtown option: Swish Dental Downtown
Swish Dental Downtown
Web
Address: 201 W 5th St Ste 175, Austin, TX 78701, United States
Phone: +1 512-713-1099
201 W 5th St, Suite 175 — right in downtown Austin. They specifically offer emergency dentistry and have a pregnancy FAQ addressing X-rays and necessary dental care. They recommend discussing imaging with your OB/GYN and bringing any instructions/clearance from them. www.swishsmiles.com
Phone: (512) 713-1099
My take: This is probably your best fit if staying downtown is important and your emergency is something like severe tooth pain, a broken tooth, lost filling/crown, or an infection.
Another strong central option: Downtown Dental Design
Downtown Dental Design
Web
Address: 507 Pressler St #350, Austin, TX 78703, United States
Phone: +1 512-482-9383
507 Pressler St #350, just west of downtown. It's categorized as an emergency dental provider, and the practice is led by Dr. Negar Eslami.
If you need care today (Saturday)
Dr. Steven Pruce Emergency Dentist Austin 24 Hours is listed at 1912 San Antonio St #22 and is currently listed as open 24/7, including Saturday. Because its online profile has only a small number of reviews, I'd call first and specifically ask whether the dentist routinely treats pregnant patients and what pregnancy-safe anesthesia/medications they use.
Another Saturday option is Lady Bird Dental in South Lamar, which advertises same-day emergency dentistry and is listed as open Saturday.
Important: Necessary dental treatment generally shouldn't be postponed just because you're pregnant. Tell the dentist how many weeks pregnant you are, your OB's contact information, medications you're taking, and whether your pregnancy is considered high-risk. Swish specifically discusses pregnancy-related precautions with patients. www.swishsmiles.com
If you have facial/neck swelling that is making it difficult to breathe or swallow, uncontrolled bleeding, or a serious injury, skip the dental-office search and go to an ER/call 911. Austin's Ascension Seton Women’s Hospital has a dedicated 24/7 Women's Emergency Department with obstetric emergency expertise. healthcare.ascension.org
If you tell me what's happening (toothache, abscess/swelling, broken tooth, bleeding, etc.) and how many weeks pregnant you are, I can narrow this to the best place to call right now.

Austin Institute of Dental Medicine is open Saturday 7 AM–7 PM and advertises same-day emergency care. It's in the Mueller area rather than downtown, but it's a strong option for an urgent problem today.
