What to do while you wait for your Tahlequah appointment

  • Toothache: rinse with warm salt water, floss gently to remove trapped food, and take ibuprofen or acetaminophen as directed on the label. Never place aspirin against the gum.
  • Knocked-out tooth: hold it by the crown, rinse briefly, try to place it back in the socket or keep it in milk. Minutes matter.
  • Swelling or fever: a cold compress on the cheek, 15 minutes on and 15 off. If swelling reaches your eye or throat, go to the emergency room first.
  • Broken tooth or lost crown: keep the piece, cover sharp edges with sugar-free gum or dental wax, and chew on the other side.

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

Do I need an appointment or can I walk in?
Call first. Walk-ins are sometimes turned away when a Tahlequah clinic is full, but a booked emergency slot is held for you.
Are Spanish-speaking dentists available in Tahlequah?
Tell the operator your language preference. Where a Cherokee County partner clinic has Spanish-speaking staff, we route you there.

Yes. Visitors call us often. We refer you to a Tahlequah partner clinic for the urgent problem, and you can follow up with your own dentist when you get home.
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 Tahlequah dentist quickly so that treatment, including antibiotics when needed, starts today.

Photo ID, a list of medications, your insurance card if you have one, any broken tooth pieces (in milk), and a way to pay the exam fee.
