What to do while you wait for your Rock Island 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.

Rock Island emergency dentist FAQ

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

Is the referral really free?
Yes. Calling 1-855-219-4656 costs nothing and you are under no obligation. You pay only the Rock Island clinic for treatment you choose to have.
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 Rock Island dentist quickly so that treatment, including antibiotics when needed, starts today.
Should I go to a Rock Island 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 Rock Island County generally cannot pull teeth or treat the cause. An emergency dentist can.
Can I get a root canal on the same day in Rock Island?
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 Rock Island partner dentists can start the same day.
Does calling guarantee a dentist in Rock Island itself?
We always look inside Rock Island first. If nothing is open, we offer the nearest clinic in Rock Island County, and you can decline any option without charge.
