What to do while you wait for your Alachua 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.

Call first. Walk-ins are sometimes turned away when an Alachua clinic is full, but a booked emergency slot is held for you.

Often the first visit relieves pain by opening the tooth and removing the infected nerve, with the root canal completed at a second visit. Several Alachua partner dentists can start the same day.
Are Spanish-speaking dentists available in Alachua?
Tell the operator your language preference. Where an Alachua County partner clinic has Spanish-speaking staff, we route you there.
