Urgent Relief for Dental Emergencies
Our goal is always to see emergency patients on the same day. Upon arrival, our experienced team will focus on three things: alleviating your pain, diagnosing the issue accurately, and providing effective treatment to stabilise the situation.
Common Dental Emergencies We Treat:
Severe Toothache
Unbearable or persistent pain, often indicating an infection or nerve damage requiring urgent attention, such as a Root Canal Treatment.
Chipped, Cracked, or Broken Teeth
Depending on the severity, we can restore the tooth with a Tooth Filling, bonding, or a protective Crown.
Knocked-Out (Avulsed) Tooth
This is a true emergency. If you act fast, the tooth may be saved.
Lost or Broken Restoration
A lost crown, bridge, or large filling needs prompt repair to prevent further damage or infection.
Dental Abscess or Swelling
A painful, often pus-filled infection that requires immediate draining and treatment to prevent the spread of infection.
Bleeding or Pain After Extraction
Post-operative concerns that need professional assessment.
Wisdom Tooth Pain
Sudden, severe pain or swelling often associated with an erupting or impacted Wisdom Tooth.
What to Do in a Dental Emergency
Taking the correct steps immediately can significantly improve the outcome:
- Stay Calm: Panic can make the situation worse.
- Call Us Immediately: Describe your symptoms clearly so we can guide you before your arrival.
- For a Knocked-Out Tooth: Gently pick it up by the crown (top), rinse it without scrubbing, and try to reinsert it into the socket. If that fails, store it in a container of milk or saliva and bring it with you immediately.
- For Swelling/Pain: Apply a cold compress to the outside of the cheek near the affected area to reduce swelling. Use over-the-counter pain relief as directed, but never place aspirin directly on the tooth or gum.

frequently asked questions
Do you offer same-day emergency appointments?
Yes. We reserve dedicated time slots daily to ensure we can accommodate genuine dental emergencies and provide immediate relief. Please call ahead so we can prepare for your arrival.
What is the charge for an emergency appointment?
The initial appointment fee covers the emergency examination and diagnosis (including necessary X-rays). Treatment costs vary widely depending on the required procedure (e.g., extraction, temporary filling, or antibiotics). We will always provide a quote before treatment.
I have a severe toothache; should I go to the hospital Emergency Department?
Hospital emergency departments are usually equipped to handle only life-threatening conditions. For dental pain, a dental clinic is the appropriate place to receive definitive treatment, such as a filling or root canal.
Can you fix a knocked-out permanent tooth?
Yes, but time is critical. If you can get to us within 30 minutes, there is a good chance the tooth can be successfully replanted. Follow the steps above (keep it moist, ideally in milk).
What is the difference between a minor crack and a dental emergency?
Any crack that causes intense pain, exposes the pulp, or extends below the gum line is an emergency. If the tooth is sensitive to temperature or pressure, it requires urgent assessment to prevent infection.
