What to do while you wait for your Plainfield 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.

Should I go to a Plainfield 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 Will County generally cannot pull teeth or treat the cause. An emergency dentist can.
How quickly can I be seen in Plainfield, IL?
Typically the same day. Overnight calls are usually booked for the first available slot the next morning, and the operator tells you the time before you hang up.
Is there a dentist open on weekends in Plainfield?
Yes. Several partner clinics serving Plainfield and Will County open on Saturdays, and a smaller number on Sundays. Call 1-855-219-4656 and we will tell you which one has the earliest slot.
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 Plainfield dentist quickly so that treatment, including antibiotics when needed, starts today.
Can you help if I am visiting Plainfield and my dentist is elsewhere?
Yes. Visitors call us often. We refer you to a Plainfield partner clinic for the urgent problem, and you can follow up with your own dentist when you get home.
