What to do while you wait for your Quincy 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, tooth abscess.

Can I get a root canal on the same day in Quincy?
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 Quincy 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 Quincy slot available and tell you how to manage the pain until then.
Can you help if I am visiting Quincy and my dentist is elsewhere?
Yes. Visitors call us often. We refer you to a Quincy partner clinic for the urgent problem, and you can follow up with your own dentist when you get home.
What if I do not have dental insurance in Quincy?
You will still be seen. Every dentist in our Quincy network accepts uninsured patients and quotes fees before treatment. Many offer monthly payment plans.
Should I go to a Quincy 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 Norfolk County generally cannot pull teeth or treat the cause. An emergency dentist can.
