When life moves fast, finding time for dental care shouldn’t slow you down. Between work deadlines, school drop-offs, and evening activities, many Watertown families struggle to fit dental appointments into their packed schedules. At Family Dental Practice, we understand that flexibility matters, and that having a dentist open late in Watertown can make all the difference. That’s why we offer early morning, evening, and weekend emergency appointments, giving you the care you need at a time that works for you.
“People shouldn’t have to choose between their health and their schedule,” says Dr. Buchholtz, DDS, of Family Dental Practice. “By opening earlier and staying later, we can make dentistry more accessible and less stressful for every member of the family.”
Your oral health plays an important role in your overall well-being, but delaying care can lead to avoidable problems such as cavities, gum inflammation, or cracked restorations that could have been addressed early. Our flexible hours are designed to make preventive and restorative care easier for busy families, professionals, and students.
Patients often tell us how much they appreciate being able to schedule visits without missing work or school. Whether you prefer a 7:30 a.m. appointment before heading into the office or a 6:30 p.m. cleaning after soccer practice, our team works to accommodate you. Just check our hours to see which day of the week is right for you, and give us a call.
Our flexible hours are ideal for:
Regular dental visits can help prevent minor concerns from becoming major issues. Skipping cleanings or delaying treatment may allow bacteria, plaque, or small fractures to progress silently. Over time, these can lead to discomfort, infection, or more complex and costly procedures.
By offering early and late appointments, we make it easier for our Watertown patients to stay consistent with preventive care. Routine exams allow us to:
Preventive care can not only save you time and money, but supports maintaining a brighter, healthier smiles for the whole family.
We know every household’s schedule looks different, which is why our practice offers a range of early and late appointment options. Many of our patients visit before work or after school, and we also reserve time for weekend emergencies when urgent situations arise.
Our typical scheduling options include:
Dental emergencies can happen at the most inconvenient times, which is why we reserve same-day openings whenever possible and provide emergency weekend coverage for urgent cases. If you wake up with a toothache, chip a tooth before an event, or lose a filling after hours, we’re ready to help. Call us as soon as it happens! The earlier in the day you call, the better our same-day availability is likely to be.
Common dental emergencies we treat include:
If you’re unsure whether your situation is an emergency, it’s always best to call. Our team can assess your symptoms and help determine whether immediate care is necessary.
Our flexible hours aren’t the only way we make dental care easier. We’ve also designed our office to provide a comfortable, family-friendly environment where patients of all ages can relax. From the moment you walk in, you’ll notice that we’ve prioritized both technology and comfort.
Amenities include:
We want every appointment (morning, evening, or weekend) to feel positive and efficient, so you can leave with a healthy smile without wreaking havoc on your schedule.
Regular visits are the key to maintaining long-term oral health. When you make time for preventive care, you can often avoid emergency visits altogether.
Benefits of consistent checkups may include:
Even two professional cleanings per year can make a major difference in preventing tooth decay and gum disease. The earlier the issues are identified, the simpler and less invasive the treatment can be.
