Dental emergencies we can help with
If you are not sure whether your problem is urgent, call us and our team will advise you.
Toothache
Persistent or severe tooth pain is a sign that something needs attention. We will find the cause and help relieve it.
Broken teeth
A chipped, cracked or broken tooth can be sharp and sensitive. We will assess the damage and explain how it can be repaired.
Lost fillings or crowns
A lost filling or crown can leave a tooth exposed and uncomfortable. We can protect the tooth and plan a lasting repair.
Swelling or infection
Swelling in the gum or face can be a sign of infection and should be assessed promptly.
Dental trauma
A knock to the mouth can loosen or damage teeth. Call us straight away so we can advise you on what to do next.
Knocked out tooth
Hold the tooth by the crown, not the root. If you can, place it back in the socket or keep it in milk, and call us straight away.
When to go to A&E or call 999: if swelling is affecting your breathing, swallowing or eye, if bleeding will not stop, or if you have a serious injury to your face or jaw. If we are closed and you need urgent advice, call NHS 111.

Emergency dentist FAQs
Do I need to be registered to be seen?
No, we welcome both registered and non-registered patients for emergency appointments.
How much does an emergency dental appointment cost?
The cost of an emergency dental appointment can be found on our fees page. The cost of your dental treatment can vary depending on the problem and any treatment required.
We will always explain any costs clearly before starting treatment.
Can you treat the problem on the same day?
We aim to provide immediate relief and may begin treatment during your emergency appointment. However, some treatments may require a follow-up visit depending on complexity.
Can a tooth infection go away on its own?
No, a dental infection will not go away without treatment. While symptoms may temporarily improve, the infection will remain. Our dentists can give you full detailed advice during your appointment.
What should I do if I have a dental emergency?
If you experience pain, trauma, swelling, or damage to a tooth, contact the practice as soon as possible. Our team will assess your situation and arrange an urgent appointment where needed.
What will happen at an emergency dental appointment?
During your appointment, the dentist will:
- Examine the problem
- Identify the cause
- Relieve pain where possible
- Explain your options
The priority is to get you comfortable and stabilise the issue.
Why is my tooth pain worse at night?
Tooth pain can feel worse at night because lying down increases blood flow to the head, which can increase pressure in the affected tooth. There are also fewer distractions, making the pain feel more intense.
