What to do while you wait for your Hollister appointment

  • Toothache: rinse with warm salt water, floss gently to remove trapped food, and take ibuprofen or acetaminophen as directed on the label. Never place aspirin against the gum.
  • Knocked-out tooth: hold it by the crown, rinse briefly, try to place it back in the socket or keep it in milk. Minutes matter.
  • Swelling or fever: a cold compress on the cheek, 15 minutes on and 15 off. If swelling reaches your eye or throat, go to the emergency room first.
  • Broken tooth or lost crown: keep the piece, cover sharp edges with sugar-free gum or dental wax, and chew on the other side.

How quickly can I be seen in Hollister, CA?
Typically the same day. Overnight calls are usually booked for the first available slot the next morning, and the operator tells you the time before you hang up.
Do I need an appointment or can I walk in?
Call first. Walk-ins are sometimes turned away when a Hollister clinic is full, but a booked emergency slot is held for you.
Can you help if I am visiting Hollister and my dentist is elsewhere?
Yes. Visitors call us often. We refer you to a Hollister partner clinic for the urgent problem, and you can follow up with your own dentist when you get home.
What should I bring to an emergency appointment in Hollister?
Photo ID, a list of medications, your insurance card if you have one, any broken tooth pieces (in milk), and a way to pay the exam fee.
Should I go to a Hollister hospital ER for tooth pain?
Only if you have swelling that affects breathing or swallowing, uncontrolled bleeding, or a jaw fracture. Hospital emergency rooms in San Benito County generally cannot pull teeth or treat the cause. An emergency dentist can.
