Private same-day support where possible at our Camberwell practice, focused on comfort and clear advice.
When something goes wrong with your teeth, you want calm, prompt help from people you can trust. Dentist By The Green offers private emergency dental appointments at our Camberwell practice, welcoming patients from Fulham and across SW6.
Whether you are close to Fulham Broadway or Parsons Green, near Eel Brook Common and New King’s Road, or by the river around Bishop’s Park and Fulham Palace, our first aim is to ease your pain and make things safe again. You will be seen by qualified dental professionals who explain clearly, treat responsibly and keep your comfort in mind.
Patients visit us from across SW6, including homes and workplaces close to Fulham Broadway and Parsons Green stations, the green spaces of Eel Brook Common and Hurlingham Park, and the historic riverside around Bishop’s Park and Fulham Palace.
We also regularly assist people who are out and about along North End Road Market, New King’s Road and Wandsworth Bridge Road, or attending events near Stamford Bridge. Dentist By The Green is based in Camberwell at 25A Denmark Hill, London SE5 8RS, and we welcome patients from Fulham for timely, private emergency dental care.
You can reach us by car, bus, bike and train. If you are planning your visit, our reception team can offer general guidance to help you choose a suitable way to travel. We want your visit to feel as smooth and straightforward as possible.
This local knowledge sits alongside a careful, ethical approach to dentistry, so your immediate issue is managed well and your longer term comfort, confidence and oral health are supported.
If you are unsure whether to seek urgent help, the following usually need a same day assessment:
If you have difficulty breathing, swallowing, or have swelling that is spreading to the eye or neck area, seek urgent medical attention immediately via NHS 111 or 999. Your safety comes first.
Dental emergencies can feel overwhelming. Our clinicians take time to explain what is happening and what can help, so you feel informed and reassured. We understand that you may be nervous or in significant discomfort. We will work at a pace that suits you. Where helpful, we can discuss short term strategies to help you feel more at ease during your urgent care.
Take over the counter pain relief that is safe for you, following the dosage instructions on the packaging. Do not place aspirin directly on the gum.
Apply a cold compress externally in short intervals to reduce swelling.
Keep your head elevated when resting.
Rinse gently with warm salt water to help keep the area clean, unless you have been advised not to rinse, for example immediately after certain procedures.
Avoid very hot, cold or sugary foods and try to chew on the opposite side.
If you have a suspected abscess with increasing swelling, fever, or feel unwell, contact a dental professional promptly. Antibiotics are not always required. Your dentist will advise after examination.
Our priority is to make you more comfortable, then find the cause. After a careful examination, and X-rays where appropriate to show what is happening below the surface, we will explain our findings in plain English and talk you through your options. Depending on your needs, emergency treatment may include:
Once the immediate issue is under control, we will discuss any longer term care that may help. Suitability for treatment is always based on your individual assessment. We will only suggest what is appropriate for you.
Once your immediate symptoms have been managed, your dentist will discuss simple, practical steps that may help reduce future problems. This could include tailored advice on home care, diet and protective measures such as mouth protection for contact sports, always based on your individual assessment and needs.
Our aim is to support eating comfortably, smiling with confidence in photos and enjoying everyday life with fewer interruptions from dental pain. We will agree a plan that makes sense for you.
Knocked out adult tooth: Handle the tooth by the crown, the white part, not the root. If it is visibly dirty, gently rinse with milk or saline. Do not scrub. If you can, place it back into the socket and bite down on a clean cloth. If this is not possible, keep it in milk or in your mouth between your cheek and gum, and contact a dentist urgently. Baby teeth should not be re inserted.
Broken or chipped tooth: Rinse your mouth with lukewarm water, keep any fragments, and cover sharp edges with dental wax if you have it. Avoid biting on the area.
Bleeding: Apply gentle, continuous pressure with clean gauze or a cloth for up to 20 minutes. If bleeding does not slow, seek urgent care.
Soft tissue injuries: Clean the area with saline or water and use a cold compress on the outside of the face to help with swelling.
If you are unsure at any point, our team can offer guidance when you call.
