What to do while you wait for your Lorain 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: bleeding that will not stop, cracked tooth, knocked-out tooth.

Lorain emergency dentist FAQ

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

Should I go to a Lorain 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 Lorain 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 Lorain dentist quickly so that treatment, including antibiotics when needed, starts today.
What if I do not have dental insurance in Lorain?
You will still be seen. Every dentist in our Lorain network accepts uninsured patients and quotes fees before treatment. Many offer monthly payment plans.
Can I get a root canal on the same day in Lorain?
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 Lorain partner dentists can start the same day.
Do I need an appointment or can I walk in?
Call first. Walk-ins are sometimes turned away when a Lorain clinic is full, but a booked emergency slot is held for you.
