What to do while you wait for your Somerset 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.

Can I get a same-day tooth extraction in Somerset?
In most cases, yes. Somerset 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.
Do Somerset emergency dentists treat children?
Yes. Tell the operator the patient's age and we will refer you to a pediatric dentist or a general dentist in Somerset who treats children.
Which ZIP codes in Somerset do you cover?
All of them, from 08873 to 08875 and every code in between. If your ZIP is in Somerset County, we will find the nearest open clinic.
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 Somerset dentist quickly so that treatment, including antibiotics when needed, starts today.
Can I get a root canal on the same day in Somerset?
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 Somerset partner dentists can start the same day.
