What to do while you wait for your Gainesville appointment

  • Pain relief: ibuprofen and acetaminophen taken together, as the labels allow, usually work better than either alone. Avoid heat on the face.
  • Bleeding: bite on clean gauze or a damp tea bag for 20 minutes without checking. If it soaks through repeatedly, tell the operator when you call.
  • Lost filling or crown: keep the crown if you have it. Temporary dental cement from a pharmacy can cover the tooth until your appointment.
  • Tooth knocked out: do not scrub the root. Put the tooth in milk or hold it in your cheek and get to the dentist within the hour if you can.

Gainesville emergency dentist FAQ

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

Should I go to a Gainesville 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 Prince William County generally cannot pull teeth or treat the cause. An emergency dentist can.
Are Spanish-speaking dentists available in Gainesville?
Tell the operator your language preference. Where a Prince William County partner clinic has Spanish-speaking staff, we route you there.
Do Gainesville 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 Gainesville who treats children.
Is there a dentist open on weekends in Gainesville?
Yes. Several partner clinics serving Gainesville and Prince William County open on Saturdays, and a smaller number on Sundays. Call 1-855-219-4656 and we will tell you which one has the earliest slot.
Does calling guarantee a dentist in Gainesville itself?
We always look inside Gainesville first. If nothing is open, we offer the nearest clinic in Prince William County, and you can decline any option without charge.
