What to do while you wait for your Fort Wayne 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.
