What to do while you wait for your Tucker 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.

Read the full first-aid guides: knocked-out tooth, lost crown, bleeding that will not stop.

Tucker emergency dentist FAQ

Need a Tucker dentist now? Call 1-855-219-4656, free, 24 hours a day.

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 Tucker slot available and tell you how to manage the pain until then.
Can I get a root canal on the same day in Tucker?
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 Tucker partner dentists can start the same day.
Do Tucker 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 Tucker who treats children.
Can I get a same-day tooth extraction in Tucker?
In most cases, yes. Tucker partner dentists reserve emergency slots for extractions, abscess drainage and broken teeth. If the tooth needs an oral surgeon, we refer you to one with same-day availability.
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 Tucker dentist quickly so that treatment, including antibiotics when needed, starts today.
