What to do while you wait for your Groton appointment

  • Pain relief: ibuprofen and acetaminophen taken together, as the labels allow, usually work better than either alone. Avoid heat on the face.
  • Bleeding: bite on clean gauze or a damp tea bag for 20 minutes without checking. If it soaks through repeatedly, tell the operator when you call.
  • Lost filling or crown: keep the crown if you have it. Temporary dental cement from a pharmacy can cover the tooth until your appointment.
  • Tooth knocked out: do not scrub the root. Put the tooth in milk or hold it in your cheek and get to the dentist within the hour if you can.

Groton emergency dentist FAQ

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

Should I go to a Groton 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 Middlesex County generally cannot pull teeth or treat the cause. An emergency dentist can.
Does calling guarantee a dentist in Groton itself?
We always look inside Groton first. If nothing is open, we offer the nearest clinic in Middlesex County, and you can decline any option without charge.
Can I get a root canal on the same day in Groton?
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 Groton partner dentists can start the same 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 Groton slot available and tell you how to manage the pain until then.
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 Groton dentist quickly so that treatment, including antibiotics when needed, starts today.
