What to do while you wait for your Cleveland 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.

Need a Cleveland dentist now? Call 1-855-219-4656, free, 24 hours a day.
What happens if I call at 3 a.m.?
A real person answers. For severe swelling or bleeding you will be advised whether the emergency room is safer. Otherwise we book the first Cleveland slot available and tell you how to manage the pain until then.
Is the referral really free?
Yes. Calling 1-855-219-4656 costs nothing and you are under no obligation. You pay only the Cleveland clinic for treatment you choose to have.
How quickly can I be seen in Cleveland, OH?
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.
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 Cleveland dentist quickly so that treatment, including antibiotics when needed, starts today.
Are Spanish-speaking dentists available in Cleveland?
Tell the operator your language preference. Where a Cuyahoga County partner clinic has Spanish-speaking staff, we route you there.
