What to Do in a Dental Emergency
Call Us Immediately
Phone the practice as soon as possible. We keep emergency slots available every day. Describe your symptoms clearly so we can prioritise your appointment appropriately.
For a Knocked Out Tooth
Pick up the tooth by the crown (not the root). Rinse gently with milk or saline do not scrub. Try to reinsert it into the socket, or store it in milk or between your cheek and gum. Get to us within 30–60 minutes for the best chance of saving the tooth.
For Toothache or Swelling
Take over-the-counter pain relief (ibuprofen or paracetamol) as directed. Apply a cold compress to the outside of your cheek to reduce swelling. Do not apply heat or aspirin directly to the tooth or gum.
For a Lost Crown or Filling
Avoid chewing on that side until you’ve seen us.
