While waiting to be seen, you can rinse gently with warm salt water to help reduce bacteria and take over-the-counter pain relievers like ibuprofen or acetaminophen.

This may involve making a small incision to drain pus, which quickly reduces swelling and discomfort. If the tooth can be saved, a root canal is performed to remove the infected nerve, disinfect the canal, and seal it. If the damage is too severe, the tooth may be extracted to prevent further spread of infection. Antibiotics are sometimes prescribed to control infection but do not cure it alone. After treatment, the tooth is typically restored with a crown or permanent filling for strength and protection.\u00a0<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7b20b4c e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"7b20b4c\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f1bcbd5 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"f1bcbd5\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-5d9f1ab elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"5d9f1ab\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">What to Ask About Cost When You Call<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-46b31e3 guide-process-left elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"46b31e3\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>When calling a dental office about emergency care, it\u2019s important to understand costs upfront, even without insurance. Many practices offer flexible payment options or can refer you to lower-cost providers, such as dental schools. Be sure to ask whether they accept your insurance or discount plan, and request an estimate for the emergency exam and X-rays. You should also ask about typical price ranges for procedures like a root canal or extraction, and whether payment plans or same-day financing are available to help manage out-of-pocket costs.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-b44dd18 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"b44dd18\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-9d20bfd add-span-after elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"9d20bfd\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/dentistry.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/elementor\/thumbs\/WhatToAsk-ro1lk1emaix356v76nf5j5gazg3raxvexjy29wme1s.png\" title=\"WhatToAsk\" alt=\"Facial swelling and fever symptoms caused by spreading tooth abscess infection illustration\" loading=\"lazy\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-36ffe69 e-con-full elementor-hidden-desktop elementor-hidden-tablet elementor-hidden-mobile e-flex e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"36ffe69\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-3d97cfd e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-child\" data-id=\"3d97cfd\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f23aea9 e-con-full elementor-hidden-desktop elementor-hidden-tablet e-flex elementor-invisible e-con e-child\" data-id=\"f23aea9\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;animation&quot;:&quot;bounceInRight&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6ab2802 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"6ab2802\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"756\" src=\"https:\/\/dentistry.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/a6b991d870a05a89297b4f8e2488755dc7375dcb-1-1-1024x968.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-2228\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/dentistry.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/a6b991d870a05a89297b4f8e2488755dc7375dcb-1-1-1024x968.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/dentistry.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/a6b991d870a05a89297b4f8e2488755dc7375dcb-1-1-300x284.jpg 300w, https:\/\/dentistry.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/a6b991d870a05a89297b4f8e2488755dc7375dcb-1-1-768x726.jpg 768w, https:\/\/dentistry.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/a6b991d870a05a89297b4f8e2488755dc7375dcb-1-1.jpg 1284w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-9e2568a e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"9e2568a\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-3f2d7e3 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"3f2d7e3\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Pregunte a un dentista: Dr. Dennis Rollins:<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-8ad7e60 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"8ad7e60\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">\u00bfCu\u00e1ndo una extracci\u00f3n dental es urgente y cu\u00e1ndo puede esperar?<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-e398ff6 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"e398ff6\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Class aptent taciti sociosqu ad litora torquent per conubia nostra, per inceptos himenaeos.
