What to do while you wait for your Lincolnton appointment

  • Rinse, do not scrub: warm salt water every few hours calms the gum and clears debris around a cracked or infected tooth.
  • Cold, not heat: a wrapped ice pack on the cheek limits swelling. Heat spreads it.
  • Keep the pieces: a chipped fragment or a crown that came off can sometimes be reattached, so bring it with you.
  • Eat carefully: soft foods, nothing very hot or cold, and chew away from the sore side until you are seen.

Can I get a root canal on the same day in Lincolnton?
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 Lincolnton partner dentists can start the same day.
Should I go to a Lincolnton 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 Lincoln County generally cannot pull teeth or treat the cause. An emergency dentist can.
Do I need an appointment or can I walk in?
Call first. Walk-ins are sometimes turned away when a Lincolnton clinic is full, but a booked emergency slot is held for you.

Yes. Several partner clinics serving Lincolnton and Lincoln County open on Saturdays, and a smaller number on Sundays. Call 1-855-219-4656 and we will tell you which one has the earliest slot.
Can I get a same-day tooth extraction in Lincolnton?
In most cases, yes. Lincolnton 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.
