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

Richmond emergency dentist FAQ

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

Can I get a root canal on the same day in Richmond?
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 Richmond partner dentists can start the same day.
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 Richmond slot available and tell you how to manage the pain until then.
Can you help if I am visiting Richmond and my dentist is elsewhere?
Yes. Visitors call us often. We refer you to a Richmond partner clinic for the urgent problem, and you can follow up with your own dentist when you get home.
How quickly can I be seen in Richmond, TX?
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.
Can I get a same-day tooth extraction in Richmond?
In most cases, yes. Richmond 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.
