A nearby Stockton practice for French Camp patients, offering everything from exams and cleanings to emergency care.
Getting to us from French Camp
French Camp sits just south of Stockton, putting our W Robinhood Drive office within easy reach. We treat patients from throughout San Joaquin County, and Dr. Van Sicklen’s long experience in the region helps him understand the patients he cares for.
Close enough for an emergency
If a tooth is broken or knocked out, a restoration comes loose, or a toothache becomes debilitating, call us right away. Tooth pain can signal a serious problem and should be handled immediately, proximity matters.
What counts as a dental emergency
Emergency care is needed when a tooth is broken or dislodged by trauma, accident or chewing, when a debilitating toothache occurs, or when a dental restoration breaks loose. Facial swelling or fever alongside tooth pain indicates infection that has moved beyond the tooth, and should not wait.
The specific first steps differ by situation, and they matter: see knocked-out tooth, cracked or broken tooth and lost filling or crown.
Routine care is what prevents the emergency
Nearly every emergency we treat began as something treatable earlier and far more cheaply. Decay found at a six-month examination is a filling; the same decay found eighteen months later is a root canal and a crown.
For French Camp patients, being close enough to keep a routine schedule is worth more than being close enough for an emergency.

Questions from French Camp patients
- How close is the practice to French Camp?
- French Camp sits just south of Stockton, which puts our W Robinhood Drive office within easy reach. We treat patients from throughout San Joaquin County.
- What should I do in a dental emergency?
- Call (209) 951-3436 rather than waiting for a reply to an online form. For a knocked-out tooth, handle it by the crown, keep it moist in milk or a dental preservation solution, and come in immediately.
- Do I need to be an existing patient to be seen?
- We are currently accepting new patients. If you are not already registered with the practice, call and tell us what has happened.
- Can a toothache wait until morning?
- Tooth pain can be a sign of serious illness and can progress to dangerous problems if it is not handled immediately. Pain with facial swelling or fever in particular should not be left.
