You can reach us by car, bus, bike or train. If you are unsure of the best route, our team can offer general guidance.
Please seek urgent medical help straight away via NHS 111 or A&E if you have difficulty breathing, uncontrolled bleeding, severe facial trauma, signs the problem is spreading such as fever, rapidly increasing swelling or difficulty swallowing, or you suspect a broken jaw. Dental emergencies vary, and our team will guide you based on your symptoms and what we find at your visit.
Being in pain can feel unsettling, especially if you are attending or visiting St George’s Hospital. We take a measured, reassuring approach:
1) Triage And History We will ask about your symptoms, medical history and any recent events such as a fall or chipped tooth. Please bring details of any medicines you take, as this helps us plan safe care. 2) Examination And, If Suitable, Imaging Your dentist will examine the area and may recommend dental radiography where appropriate. X rays provide detail that is not visible to the eye, which helps explain your options with confidence and plan any treatment with greater accuracy. 3) Immediate Care Treatment is tailored to your needs. This may include local anaesthetic for comfort, measures to settle the area, smoothing sharp edges, applying a protective dressing, stabilising a loose tooth or managing a localised abscess. Our aim is to relieve pain and protect dental tissues where possible, without promising that everything will be resolved in one visit. 4) Advice And Next Steps You will receive guidance on aftercare, what to watch for and whether further treatment is recommended. Any follow up will be planned around your clinical situation and preferences so you can make decisions at your own pace.
These are general tips only. The right care for you will always depend on a professional assessment.
