What to do while you wait for your San Marino appointment

  • Rinse, do not scrub: warm salt water every few hours calms the gum and clears debris around a cracked or infected tooth.
  • Cold, not heat: a wrapped ice pack on the cheek limits swelling. Heat spreads it.
  • Keep the pieces: a chipped fragment or a crown that came off can sometimes be reattached, so bring it with you.
  • Eat carefully: soft foods, nothing very hot or cold, and chew away from the sore side until you are seen.

San Marino emergency dentist FAQ

Will the dentist prescribe antibiotics over the phone?
No. A dentist must examine the tooth before prescribing. What we can do is get you in front of a San Marino dentist quickly so that treatment, including antibiotics when needed, starts today.
Are Spanish-speaking dentists available in San Marino?
Tell the operator your language preference. Where a Los Angeles County partner clinic has Spanish-speaking staff, we route you there.
Should I go to a San Marino 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 Los Angeles County generally cannot pull teeth or treat the cause. An emergency dentist can.
What happens if I call at 3 a.m.?
A real person answers. For severe swelling or bleeding you will be advised whether the emergency room is safer. Otherwise we book the first San Marino slot available and tell you how to manage the pain until then.
Can you help if I am visiting San Marino and my dentist is elsewhere?
Yes. Visitors call us often. We refer you to a San Marino partner clinic for the urgent problem, and you can follow up with your own dentist when you get home.
