What to do while you wait for your Lutz appointment

  • Pain relief: ibuprofen and acetaminophen taken together, as the labels allow, usually work better than either alone. Avoid heat on the face.
  • Bleeding: bite on clean gauze or a damp tea bag for 20 minutes without checking. If it soaks through repeatedly, tell the operator when you call.
  • Lost filling or crown: keep the crown if you have it. Temporary dental cement from a pharmacy can cover the tooth until your appointment.
  • Tooth knocked out: do not scrub the root. Put the tooth in milk or hold it in your cheek and get to the dentist within the hour if you can.

What should I bring to an emergency appointment in Lutz?
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.
Can I get a root canal on the same day in Lutz?
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 Lutz partner dentists can start the same day.
Can you help if I am visiting Lutz and my dentist is elsewhere?
Yes. Visitors call us often. We refer you to a Lutz partner clinic for the urgent problem, and you can follow up with your own dentist when you get home.
Do Lutz emergency dentists treat children?
Yes. Tell the operator the patient's age and we will refer you to a pediatric dentist or a general dentist in Lutz who treats children.
Should I go to a Lutz 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 Hillsborough generally cannot pull teeth or treat the cause. An emergency dentist can.
