What to do while you wait for your Minneapolis 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.

Minneapolis emergency dentist FAQ

Need a Minneapolis 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 Minneapolis dentist quickly so that treatment, including antibiotics when needed, starts today.
Do I need an appointment or can I walk in?
Call first. Walk-ins are sometimes turned away when a Minneapolis clinic is full, but a booked emergency slot is held for you.
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 Minneapolis slot available and tell you how to manage the pain until then.
What if I do not have dental insurance in Minneapolis?
You will still be seen. Every dentist in our Minneapolis network accepts uninsured patients and quotes fees before treatment. Many offer monthly payment plans.
How quickly can I be seen in Minneapolis, MN?
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.
