What to do while you wait for your Clinton appointment

  • 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.

Clinton emergency dentist FAQ

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

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 Clinton dentist quickly so that treatment, including antibiotics when needed, starts today.
Does calling guarantee a dentist in Clinton itself?
We always look inside Clinton first. If nothing is open, we offer the nearest clinic in Clinton County, and you can decline any option without charge.
Do I need an appointment or can I walk in?
Call first. Walk-ins are sometimes turned away when a Clinton clinic is full, but a booked emergency slot is held for you.
How quickly can I be seen in Clinton, IA?
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.
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 Clinton slot available and tell you how to manage the pain until then.
