What is Emergency Dental Care?
Emergency dental care is immediate treatment for dental problems that require urgent attention. This includes injuries, sudden pain, swelling, knocked-out teeth, dental abscesses, or lost fillings and crowns. Acting quickly can help save your tooth, relieve pain, and prevent further complications.
Common Emergency Dental Situations
Knocked-out teeth
For knocked-out teeth, take quick action. Contact our emergency dentists immediately to improve the chances of successful re-implantation and prevent complications. Whether it’s a sports injury or an accident, prompt communication ensures timely and effective interventions, preserving your oral health.
Fractured or chipped teeth
Severe toothaches
Swelling around teeth and gums
Lost filling or crowns
Dental abscess
Are you experiencing sharp and throbbing pains alongside inflamed skin, fever, or swelling of the gums or face? Without immediate treatment, a dental abscess can spread to other infections.
Wisdom Teeth

What to Do in a Dental Emergency
If you have a dental emergency, here are some steps you can take before you reach our clinic:
Severe Toothache: Rinse your mouth with warm water and use dental floss to remove any food caught between teeth. Avoid placing aspirin directly on the tooth or gums. Take over-the-counter pain relief if needed and contact us straight away.
Knocked-Out Tooth: Hold the tooth by the crown (not the root), rinse gently, and try to place it back in the socket. If this isn’t possible, keep it in milk or saliva and bring it to the clinic immediately.
Chipped or Fractured Tooth: Rinse your mouth with warm water and save any broken pieces. Apply a cold compress to reduce swelling and call us for urgent care.
Lost Filling or Crown: Keep the crown or filling safe and avoid chewing on that side. Contact us to arrange a prompt repair.
Dental Abscess or Swelling: Rinse with warm salt water and seek immediate care, as abscesses can be serious.
Broken Braces or Wires: Cover any sharp ends with orthodontic wax and contact us for advice.
Soft Tissue Injuries: Apply pressure to stop bleeding and use a cold compress to reduce swelling. If bleeding is severe, seek immediate medical attention.

Our Emergency Dental Care Treatment Process
Diagnosis and Pain Relief
Preventing Dental Emergencies
Regular Oral Hygiene: Maintain a routine of brushing twice a day and flossing daily. This simple practice is fundamental in preventing tooth decay and gum disease.
Routine Dental Check-Ups: Regular visits to the dentist for check-ups and cleanings help in early detection and treatment of potential problems before they escalate.
Dietary Choices: Be mindful of your diet. Limiting sugary foods and drinks can greatly reduce the risk of tooth decay.
Protective Gear for Sports: If you participate in sports, especially contact sports, wearing a mouthguard can prevent traumatic dental injuries.
Following these simple steps can help you keep your teeth healthy and reduce the change of dental emergencies.
