What to do while you wait for your Castine appointment

  • Numb the area safely: a cold pack wrapped in a cloth against the cheek, 15 minutes at a time. Skip numbing gels on broken skin.
  • Keep it clean: rinse gently with warm salt water after eating. Do not probe a cavity or socket with anything sharp.
  • Manage the pain: ibuprofen or acetaminophen as the label directs. Never place a tablet against the gum.
  • Save what came out: a crown, a filling fragment or a whole tooth. A knocked-out tooth goes in milk and needs a dentist within the hour.

Read the full first-aid guides: broken braces or wire, lost crown, wisdom tooth pain.

Castine emergency dentist FAQ

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

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