What to do while you wait for your New Kensington 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 New Kensington dentist now? Call 1-855-219-4656, free, 24 hours a day.

Can I get a root canal on the same day in New Kensington?
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 New Kensington partner dentists can start the same day.
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 New Kensington dentist quickly so that treatment, including antibiotics when needed, starts today.
Can you help if I am visiting New Kensington and my dentist is elsewhere?
Yes. Visitors call us often. We refer you to a New Kensington partner clinic for the urgent problem, and you can follow up with your own dentist when you get home.
Does calling guarantee a dentist in New Kensington itself?
We always look inside New Kensington first. If nothing is open, we offer the nearest clinic in Westmoreland County, and you can decline any option without charge.
Do I need an appointment or can I walk in?
Call first. Walk-ins are sometimes turned away when a New Kensington clinic is full, but a booked emergency slot is held for you.
