What to do while you wait for your Caldwell 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.

Caldwell emergency dentist FAQ

Can I get a root canal on the same day in Caldwell?
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 Caldwell partner dentists can start the same day.
Can I get a same-day tooth extraction in Caldwell?
In most cases, yes. Caldwell 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.
Should I go to a Caldwell 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 Essex County generally cannot pull teeth or treat the cause. An emergency dentist can.
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 Caldwell slot available and tell you how to manage the pain until then.
Can you help if I am visiting Caldwell and my dentist is elsewhere?
Yes. Visitors call us often. We refer you to a Caldwell partner clinic for the urgent problem, and you can follow up with your own dentist when you get home.
