About emergency dental care

Dental emergencies don't keep office hours. We hold same-day slots every day for severe toothache, swelling, broken or knocked-out teeth and lost crowns.

Our helpline is answered round the clock, so you know what to do before you even reach us.

This may be suitable if you have

  • Severe or throbbing toothache
  • Swelling of the face or gum
  • A broken, chipped or knocked-out tooth
  • A lost crown or filling, or a broken denture

What we offer

Urgent relief

  • Same-day pain relief
  • Draining of abscesses
  • Temporary fillings
  • Medication advice

Repairs

  • Re-cementing lost crowns
  • Repairing chipped teeth
  • Splinting loose or knocked teeth
  • Denture repairs

Before you arrive

  • Knocked-out tooth: keep it in milk
  • Swelling: a cold compress, not heat
  • Bleeding: bite on clean gauze
  • Call us — we will talk you through it

How treatment works

  1. Call us

    Ring the helpline. We give first-aid advice and hold the earliest slot for you.

  2. Get relief

    We find the cause and stop the pain first — usually in the same visit.

  3. Fix it properly

    Once you are comfortable, we plan the lasting repair and its cost.

Frequently asked questions

What if a tooth gets knocked out?

Pick it up by the crown, not the root, rinse it gently and keep it in milk or inside your cheek. Come in within an hour if you can — that gives it the best chance of being saved.

Is facial swelling an emergency?

Yes. Swelling that spreads towards the eye or makes swallowing difficult needs urgent care. Call us — and go straight to a hospital if your breathing is affected.

Do you see emergencies on Sundays?

Yes. We keep emergency slots on Sunday mornings, and the helpline is answered 24/7.
