If you are in severe dental pain and need urgent assistance, this is when to seek emergency dental treatment. It could be caused by infection, injury, or trauma. You may be experiencing severe tooth decay, a broken tooth, knocked out teeth, or a dental abscess.
Get in contact with us as soon as possible. We will be able to give you advice until you are able to be seen by the emergency dentist. In most cases, your emergency appointment will be booked for the same day.
There is usually no need for you to visit A&E for a dental emergency, as dentists are far better equipped to treat you in a dental practice than a doctor in a hospital. You may also waste time waiting in A&E to find you can’t be effectively treated. If you have a dental emergency, the best option is to contact your dental practice for advice.
No, we accept any patient who has toothache and promise to see them on the same day they call if possible.
We offer pain free dentistry to all our patients; we even have sleep dentistry for those patients who are very anxious.
Yes, if you are in a different area or can’t get to your regular dental practice, you are able to visit a different dentist. Many practices reserve several emergency appointments for existing or unregistered patients. Also, if you are unable to get an emergency appointment at your normal dentist, they may be able to advise you of another practice that could help.
By their very nature, most dental emergencies cannot be avoided. However, if you maintain a good regular oral hygiene routine, your teeth and gums will be in the best condition and better able to avoid severe pain due to decay or abscess.
