What to do while you wait for your Bronx appointment

  • Toothache: rinse with warm salt water, floss gently to remove trapped food, and take ibuprofen or acetaminophen as directed on the label. Never place aspirin against the gum.
  • Knocked-out tooth: hold it by the crown, rinse briefly, try to place it back in the socket or keep it in milk. Minutes matter.
  • Swelling or fever: a cold compress on the cheek, 15 minutes on and 15 off. If swelling reaches your eye or throat, go to the emergency room first.
  • Broken tooth or lost crown: keep the piece, cover sharp edges with sugar-free gum or dental wax, and chew on the other side.

How do I know the Bronx dentist you refer me to is licensed?
Every clinic in the network holds a current New York license, which you can check yourself on the state dental board site linked on this page. Tell the operator if you want the practice name before you go.
What do I do if it starts hurting in the middle of the night?
Rinse with warm salt water, keep your head raised and use an over-the-counter painkiller you normally tolerate. Call as soon as the line opens and we book the first Bronx slot available. Swelling that affects breathing or swallowing, or bleeding that will not stop, is an emergency room visit, not a wait.
Can you help if I am visiting Bronx and my dentist is elsewhere?
Yes. Visitors call us often. We refer you to a Bronx partner clinic for the urgent problem, and you can follow up with your own dentist when you get home.
What should I bring to an emergency appointment in Bronx?
Photo ID, a list of medications, your insurance card if you have one, any broken tooth pieces (in milk), and a way to pay the exam fee.
How quickly can I be seen in Bronx, NY?
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.
