demanda espontánea

English translation: without an appointment

Medical - Medical: Dentistry
Spanish term or phrase: demanda espontánea
The phrase is in a dental research paper written in Argentina.
"Criterios de inclusión: Individuos que concurren a un centro de atención odontológica por demanda espontánea"

Although the direct translation "spontaneous demand" appears on google in medical contexts, they all seem to be papers from Spanish or Portuguese-speaking countries.
Does anyone know what the phrase might be in English?
Thank you!

English translation:without an appointment
Explanation:
Also, same-day appointment and walk-in appointment

The Convenience of Walk-In Dental Appointments
Walk-in dental appointments help people get care without an appointment or with a same-day appointment. Clinics that take walk-ins may focus mainly on preventative care. It is easier to take walk-ins when you do not have to make time for more extensive procedures. A walk-in appointment can help you avoid missing work or planning too far ahead. If your schedule is always packed, you can sneak in a dentist appointment on a day that is less busy, even if you cannot plan for a day off.

Urgent problems that threaten the health of your teeth or leave you in pain should not be ignored. You can expect to be seen by your emergency dentist quickly and without an appointment though it is recommended that you call your dentist’s office if possible before you arrive.
