What to do while you wait for your Plattsburgh 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.

Can I get a root canal on the same day in Plattsburgh?
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 Plattsburgh partner dentists can start the same day.
Which ZIP codes in Plattsburgh do you cover?
All of them, from 12901 to 12903 and every code in between. If your ZIP is in Clinton County, we will find the nearest open clinic.
Do I need an appointment or can I walk in?
Call first. Walk-ins are sometimes turned away when a Plattsburgh clinic is full, but a booked emergency slot is held for you.
Should I go to a Plattsburgh 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 Clinton County generally cannot pull teeth or treat the cause. An emergency dentist can.
How quickly can I be seen in Plattsburgh, 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.
