Emergency dentist coverage area in Kent, OH

What to do while you wait for your Kent 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.

Read the full first-aid guides: knocked-out tooth, tooth abscess, broken braces or wire.

Kent emergency dentist FAQ

Need a Kent dentist now? Call 1-855-219-4656, free, 24 hours a day.

Is the referral really free?
Yes. Calling 1-855-219-4656 costs nothing and you are under no obligation. You pay only the Kent clinic for treatment you choose to have.
What if I do not have dental insurance in Kent?
You will still be seen. Every dentist in our Kent network accepts uninsured patients and quotes fees before treatment. Many offer monthly payment plans.
Should I go to a Kent 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 Portage 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 Kent clinic is full, but a booked emergency slot is held for you.
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 Kent slot available and tell you how to manage the pain until then.
