- 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.

| Simple extraction | $130–$350 | 20–50% of fee |

Meridian emergency dentist FAQ
Need a Meridian 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 Meridian slot available and tell you how to manage the pain until then.
Does calling guarantee a dentist in Meridian itself?
We always look inside Meridian first. If nothing is open, we offer the nearest clinic in Ada County, and you can decline any option without charge.
Can I get a root canal on the same day in Meridian?
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 Meridian partner dentists can start the same day.
What if I do not have dental insurance in Meridian?
You will still be seen. Every dentist in our Meridian network accepts uninsured patients and quotes fees before treatment. Many offer monthly payment plans.
Do Meridian 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 Meridian who treats children.
