The dentist right down the road

If you live in Newport, Falko Family Dental is probably the closest emergency dentist available to you. The office is at 1251 Ebenezer Road, about a 10-minute drive depending on which part of the neighborhood you are coming from.

That proximity matters when something hurts. The decision to drive across town in pain feels different than the decision to drive a few minutes down the road. The team holds same-day appointments during business hours specifically for situations that cannot wait, Monday through Thursday.

If you are not sure whether your situation qualifies as an emergency, the section below covers what counts and what to do at home before you come in.

Decide what to do next

What counts as a dental emergency

Some dental problems can wait a few days. Others cannot. If you are dealing with any of the following, call the office right away:

Tooth pain severe enough to keep you awake, interrupt eating, or persist through over-the-counter pain medication
A knocked-out adult tooth (the first hour matters most for replantation success)
A cracked, fractured, or loose tooth that is causing pain or sensitivity
Swelling in the face, jaw, or gums, especially if it is spreading or accompanied by fever
A lost crown, filling, or bridge that has exposed the tooth underneath
Bleeding from the mouth that does not stop with steady pressure
Pain or pressure after a recent extraction, root canal, or dental procedure

If you are not sure whether your situation qualifies, call anyway. The team would rather have you in the chair when it turns out you did not need to be than the other way around.

What to do before you get to the office

While you are waiting for your appointment, a few simple steps can ease pain and protect the tooth:

Stay calm. A dental emergency feels worse than it usually is. The vast majority of these situations are treatable, and panic only makes pain harder to read.
Call the office. Describe what is happening. The team will give you specific instructions for your situation and book the next available slot.
Rinse with warm water. For a toothache or trauma, a gentle warm-water rinse clears debris and may reduce swelling. Avoid mouthwash with alcohol, which can sting exposed tissue.
Use a cold compress for swelling. Apply it to the outside of the cheek in 15-minute intervals. This helps with both pain and swelling from a cracked tooth or abscess.
Take over-the-counter pain medication if you need it. Ibuprofen works well for dental pain. Do not place aspirin directly on the gum or tooth, as it can burn the tissue.
Control bleeding with steady pressure. Use a clean piece of gauze or a folded paper towel and apply firm, even pressure for 10 to 15 minutes. Avoid checking it repeatedly, which restarts the clot.
Save a knocked-out tooth carefully. Handle the crown only, never the root. Rinse with milk or saline if it is dirty, then either place it back in the socket if possible, or store it in milk or saliva until you arrive.

Getting here from Newport

From most of Newport, the route to 1251 Ebenezer Rd is straightforward: take Mount Gallant Road south to Cherry Road, then continue south to Ebenezer Road. The drive is typically 10 minutes outside of weekday rush hour.

If you are coming from the northeastern parts of Newport closer to India Hook Road, going directly south to Cherry Road via Anderson Road is sometimes faster. Use a maps app for live traffic.

Parking is directly outside the office. Calling ahead from the road lets the team prepare a chair and verify your insurance before you arrive, which shortens your visit.

The doctors who will see you

Falko Family Dental is owned and run by Dr. Andrew Falkovsky, DMD and Dr. Klaudia Falkovsky, DMD, a husband-and-wife team whose backgrounds map directly onto urgent care.

Dr. Klaudia earned her Emergency Medical Technician (EMT) certification before dental school and responded to emergency calls in the field, providing immediate care and transport to patients in crisis. That training shapes how she handles dental emergencies today: assess first, stabilize first, explain second. She graduated from Rutgers School of Dental Medicine, where she was a member of the Gamma Pi Delta Prosthodontic Honor Society and received an International Congress of Oral Implantologists award. She also holds a Master of Science in Biomedical Sciences and is a co-author on two peer-reviewed studies, one in Nature and one in Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy.

Dr. Andrew graduated Magna Cum Laude from Rutgers School of Dental Medicine, then completed a general practice residency at Newark Beth Israel Medical Center, a hospital-based program that included dentistry performed in the operating room and exposure to medically complex patients. After residency he completed the two-year implant program at New York University, training in virtual surgical planning, bone grafting, tissue grafting, and full-arch implant restoration. In an emergency, that surgical background matters: he is comfortable with the kinds of conditions that have already escalated beyond a routine filling.

Both doctors are members of the American Dental Association and the South Carolina Dental Association. Dr. Andrew also belongs to the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry and the Academy of General Dentistry. Dr. Klaudia also belongs to the International Congress of Oral Implantologists and the Academy of General Dentistry.

Common questions from Newport patients

How close are you to Newport?

About 10 minutes by car from most of Newport. The exact time depends on which part of the neighborhood you are coming from and the time of day. From the neighborhoods closest to India Hook Road, the drive can be under 10 minutes.

Are you taking new patients from Newport?

Yes. The practice serves Newport regularly and welcomes new patients for both emergency visits and routine care. Same-day registration is available; bring a photo ID and your insurance card to the visit.

What is the actual difference between an emergency visit and a regular visit?

A regular visit is scheduled in advance and usually includes a checkup, cleaning, and any planned treatment. An emergency visit is unscheduled, starts with diagnosis to figure out what is wrong, and then treats the immediate problem (relieving pain, stopping bleeding, splinting a loose tooth, doing an extraction or root canal, etc.). Emergency visits sometimes take longer than expected if the diagnosis turns up additional issues; the team will go through what they find before any treatment beyond the diagnostic exam.

What if I am a senior who lives alone and would rather not drive in serious pain?

If you have a neighbor, family member, or friend who can drive you, ask them. If not, the team can sometimes work with you to schedule the appointment for a time when transportation is easier to arrange. For genuinely severe pain, ride-share services are available in this area and are usually a better choice than driving yourself.

Will I see the same doctor each visit?

Yes, generally. Falko Family Dental is run by Dr. Andrew and Dr. Klaudia Falkovsky, the husband-and-wife team described above. The practice is small enough that you will get to know both of them, and your care will not get passed between rotating associates.
