Dentist By The Green is a private dental practice based in Camberwell. We often care for patients who live in Walworth, including those near Walworth Square and across the wider Aylesbury Estate. While we are not on the estate itself, many people choose our team for prompt, considerate emergency dental care in a friendly, modern setting.
You can reach us by car, bus, bike or train. If you would like to plan your route, our reception team can share general directions and simple tips to make your visit straightforward.
Please get in touch promptly if you are experiencing any of the following:
If you have a fever, difficulty swallowing, swelling that affects your breathing, or trauma to the head or face, seek urgent medical attention immediately via NHS 111 or emergency services. Your safety matters most.
Triage and assessment. A member of our team will discuss your symptoms and medical history. Your dentist will examine the area and, if needed, take dental X rays to help identify the cause. X rays can make your options clearer by showing what is happening under the surface.
Pain relief and stabilisation. We focus on steps designed to reduce pain and manage swelling or irritation where appropriate. Local anaesthetic is used when required so you stay as comfortable as possible during care.
Treatment options tailored to you. Depending on your needs, we may smooth sharp edges, place a temporary restoration, reduce irritation in the area, or begin treatment to address the underlying issue. If further care is needed, we will discuss a plan and agree suitable follow up appointments.
Advice and aftercare. You will receive clear guidance on caring for the area at home, along with any prescriptions that may be appropriate after a clinical assessment. We will check you feel confident about the next steps.
Severe toothache. Over the counter pain relief may help in the short term. Avoid very hot or very cold foods and drinks, and keep the area clean with gentle brushing. Please contact us as soon as you can for an assessment.
Broken or chipped tooth. If you can, keep any broken fragments. Rinse your mouth gently with lukewarm water and avoid biting on that side. We can assess the extent of the break and discuss options to protect the tooth.
Lost filling or crown. Keep the area clean and avoid hard or sticky foods on that side. Temporary dental cement from a pharmacy may offer short term protection, but a clinical assessment is recommended to prevent further damage.
Knocked out adult tooth. Handle the tooth by the crown, the part you can see, not the root. If it is clean, you may try to gently place it back into the socket and bite on a clean cloth. If you cannot reinsert it, keep it moist in milk or saliva and seek urgent dental care. Outcomes vary and depend on the nature and timing of the injury.
If you are unsure what to do, call us and we will advise the next sensible step.
Calm, patient centred care. We know urgent dental problems can be worrying. We explain what we are doing, check your comfort and give you time to ask questions.
This balanced approach helps you feel reassured in the moment and supports long term comfort, everyday confidence and oral health.
Dental problems rarely wait for a good moment. If you have severe toothache, a cracked tooth, a lost filling or sudden swelling, we will do our best to arrange a same day urgent appointment, depending on availability and your clinical needs.
During your visit we aim to understand what is happening and provide care focused on easing pain and stabilising the situation. Where suitable, we may be able to complete definitive treatment on the day. In other cases, a temporary solution may be advised, followed by a carefully planned appointment to complete treatment.
If you live on the Aylesbury Estate, or close to Burgess Park, Walworth Square or Elephant & Castle, our Camberwell practice is a convenient private option for urgent dental appointments. We welcome new and existing patients for emergency care, and our reception team can guide you on the next available times and any information we may need before your visit.

Emergency dentistry is not one size fits all. Suitability for any procedure depends on your medical history, the condition of your teeth and gums, and clinical findings on the day. Our care is delivered by fully qualified dental professionals who follow current guidance and plan treatment responsibly. We will always explain the most appropriate options for your situation, including any risks and likely timelines, and answer your questions before proceeding.
01
We will ask a few questions to understand your symptoms and how urgent they are. This helps us offer the right appointment and initial advice.
02
You will complete a concise medical history so we can treat you safely. Your dentist will examine the area and explain the findings in plain English.
03
Where possible and appropriate, we will provide treatment to relieve pain, reduce the risk of further harm and support healing.
04
You will receive guidance on caring for the area at home. If needed, we will arrange a review to monitor progress or discuss longer-term options for your comfort and function.
Many dental emergencies can be stabilised at the first appointment. Depending on your diagnosis, longer term treatment may be advisable to lower the chance of the problem returning. This could include further restorative care such as a bespoke crown or other treatment suited to your case.
We will only recommend treatment after a clinical assessment and a clear discussion of the benefits and considerations. Together we will agree a plan that reflects your priorities and supports your oral health.
