What if I do not have dental insurance in Potsdam?
You will still be seen. Every dentist in our Potsdam network accepts uninsured patients and quotes fees before treatment. Many offer monthly payment plans.
Should I go to a Potsdam 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 St. Lawrence County generally cannot pull teeth or treat the cause. An emergency dentist can.
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 Potsdam dentist quickly so that treatment, including antibiotics when needed, starts today.
Can I get a root canal on the same day in Potsdam?
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 Potsdam partner dentists can start the same day.
