What to do before your emergency dentist appointment

While waiting to see our emergency dentist, you can take a few steps to manage discomfort and protect your teeth:

• Avoid touching or wiggling damaged teeth or gums.
• Rinse gently with warm water to keep the area clean.
• Use over-the-counter pain relief if suitable (avoid aspirin).
• Avoid very hot or cold drinks.
• Keep any knocked-out tooth moist in milk or saline solution.
• Do not attempt self-treatment such as extraction or drainage.

If swelling or bleeding is severe, call 111 or go directly to the nearest hospital.

Types of dental emergencies we treat

Toothache and infection

Persistent or severe toothache is a common sign of infection. Our dentists identify the source quickly and provide either medication, root canal treatment, or extraction where required.

Cracked or broken tooth

Cracks or fractures can lead to infection or pain. We can repair the damage using fillings, inlays, crowns, or veneers, restoring both appearance and function.

Knocked-out teeth

If your tooth has been dislodged due to trauma, immediate action is vital. Bring the tooth with you in milk or a tooth preservation kit — reimplantation is sometimes possible if treated quickly.

Emergency root canal

Severe infection or abscess in the tooth pulp requires urgent intervention. Our emergency root canal treatment removes bacteria and relieves pain, preserving the natural tooth whenever possible.

Broken crowns, bridges, or veneers

We can re-cement or replace restorations the same day. In some cases, temporary replacements can be fitted while a new one is created.

Tooth extraction

If a tooth is beyond repair, we provide gentle, precise extractions under local anaesthetic, followed by advice on replacement options such as dental implants or bridges.

Emergency dental care for children

Children can experience dental injuries through sports or accidents. Our paediatric dentists provide calm, expert care to treat trauma, protect developing teeth, and ease discomfort.
