Dental Emergencies
We understand if you are suffering from a genuine dental emergency, you need priority attention.
Dental emergencies can arise suddenly, when you least expect them,
making you feel your most vulnerable.
Therefore, we keep space available in our appointment books every day for
urgent care appointments. For same-day urgent appointments please call us.
We will do our best to fit you in, even if no available appointments are showing
on our online booking system.
We treat emergency cases including:
-
Toothaches
-
Sporting injuries
-
Dental trauma (such as chipped, broken, or knocked-out teeth)
-
Lost fillings or dental crowns
-
Broken dentures
During an emergency appointment our first priority is to get you out of pain and stabilise the problem.
We will then provide a thorough examination of your condition and discuss and explain the treatment options available to you. We may be able to complete the treatment that day, or we may need to book you back in for a further appointment.
If the potential cost of dental care is preventing you from having a dental emergency attended to, it’s important that you know we have a payment options available to you.
Below we have outlined the best and worst things to do for the most common emergencies we see. We hope this will provide you with some assistance until you can get to a dentist or hospital.
