What to do while you wait for your Johns Island 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: broken braces or wire, lost crown, severe toothache.

Should I go to a Johns Island 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 Charleston County generally cannot pull teeth or treat the cause. An emergency dentist can.
Does calling guarantee a dentist in Johns Island itself?
We always look inside Johns Island first. If nothing is open, we offer the nearest clinic in Charleston County, and you can decline any option without charge.
Do Johns Island emergency dentists treat children?
Yes. Tell the operator the patient's age and we will refer you to a pediatric dentist or a general dentist in Johns Island who treats children.
How quickly can I be seen in Johns Island, SC?
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.
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 Johns Island slot available and tell you how to manage the pain until then.
