Our Emergency Appointment Approach
From your first call, our team will ask a few focused questions to understand what is happening. Where appropriate and depending on availability, we aim to offer a same day emergency assessment. During your visit, one of our fully qualified dentists will:
- Review your symptoms and relevant medical history
- Carry out a careful clinical examination, and take any necessary X rays where suitable to give clear information and guide a carefully planned response
- Explain what appears to be happening and discuss immediate options designed to relieve pain and stabilise the tooth or area
- Provide tailored aftercare guidance and outline any further treatment that may be recommended after a full assessment
Every emergency is different. Our immediate aim is to manage pain and protect your oral health. This steady, evidence based approach supports long term comfort, everyday confidence and a clearer understanding of your choices. Any longer term care will be planned with you after a clinical assessment and will depend on your needs.
What To Expect After Your Visit
After your emergency assessment and any immediate care, we will give you simple aftercare instructions tailored to your situation. This may include tips on keeping the area clean, how to manage tenderness or sensitivity, and when to return for review. If we feel further treatment may help, we will explain the options and timing, always with your comfort and preferences in mind. Suitability for any ongoing care will depend on a full clinical assessment and your individual needs.
What To Do Before Your Appointment
02
02Knocked-Out Adult Tooth
If a tooth has been completely knocked out, avoid touching the root. If clean, try to place it back into the socket. If this is not possible, store it in milk or saliva and contact us promptly.
03
03Pain Relief
Take over the counter pain relief you know is safe for you, following the instructions on the packet. Do not place painkillers directly on the gum.
04
04Swelling
Use a cold compress on the outside of your face to help reduce swelling.
05
05Broken Or Chipped Tooth
If a sharp edge is rubbing your cheek or tongue, dental wax from a pharmacy may help protect soft tissues until you are seen.
If you are unsure about any of these steps, our team can talk you through what to do.
