What to do while you wait for your Abilene appointment
- Rinse, do not scrub: warm salt water every few hours calms the gum and clears debris around a cracked or infected tooth.
- Cold, not heat: a wrapped ice pack on the cheek limits swelling. Heat spreads it.
- Keep the pieces: a chipped fragment or a crown that came off can sometimes be reattached, so bring it with you.
- Eat carefully: soft foods, nothing very hot or cold, and chew away from the sore side until you are seen.

Can I get a same-day tooth extraction in Abilene?
In most cases, yes. Abilene partner dentists reserve emergency slots for extractions, abscess drainage and broken teeth. If the tooth needs an oral surgeon, we refer you to one with same-day availability.
Should I go to an Abilene 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 Taylor County generally cannot pull teeth or treat the cause. An emergency dentist can.
What if I do not have dental insurance in Abilene?
You will still be seen. Every dentist in our Abilene network accepts uninsured patients and quotes fees before treatment. Many offer monthly payment plans.
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 an Abilene dentist quickly so that treatment, including antibiotics when needed, starts today.
