Not sure whether what you are experiencing counts as an emergency? These are some of the most common reasons patients telephone us urgently during the day:
If any of these sound familiar, please telephone us as soon as you can. The earlier in the day we see you, the better the likely outcome.
While you wait for your same-day appointment, a few simple steps can help in the meantime:
Ongoing or severe dental pain often points to infection, decay or damage beneath the surface. We will pinpoint the cause and bring you relief quickly.
Be it a knock, biting down on something hard or weakened enamel, we can repair and rebuild a damaged tooth without delay.
An abscess is a serious infection that needs treating promptly. Tell-tale signs include swelling, a throbbing ache, a raised temperature and an unpleasant taste in the mouth.
When a filling or crown comes away it can leave sensitive tooth exposed. We will re-cement or replace it to protect the tooth and ease any discomfort.
When you telephone us with an emergency, here is what happens next:
Telephone us and describe your symptoms so we can judge how urgent things are.
Same-day appointment — we will fit you in as quickly as we can.
Assessment — your dentist examines you, takes X-rays where needed and finds the cause.
Treatment — we relieve your pain and tackle the problem straight away.
Follow-up — any further work is booked in for another visit if required.
As a private practice, we keep emergency appointments available throughout the working day.
A daytime emergency appointment during opening hours is £75 plus the cost of any treatment you need. Our pricing is straightforward, with nothing hidden.
We will always talk you through the cost before any treatment starts, so you can make a confident decision about your care.
