When should you contact an emergency dentist?
Seek urgent dental advice if you experience:
– Severe toothache that affects sleep or daily activities.
– Persistent pain that does not settle.
– Swelling around a tooth, gum, face, or jaw.
– A knocked-out, broken, or injured tooth.
– A loose or lost filling, crown, or bridge.
– Severe pain or continuing bleeding after a tooth extraction.
Describe your symptoms when you call so the team can advise on the next step. A damaged restoration may need prompt attention even if it is not painful.

Dental problems that need attention
Severe toothache
Tooth pain can have several causes. An examination helps identify the problem and determine appropriate treatment. Temporary pain relief does not replace dental assessment when symptoms persist.
Swelling or a suspected dental abscess
An abscess is an infection that needs urgent dental treatment. Symptoms can include intense pain, swelling, a bad taste or fever. Do not wait for it to disappear on its own.
A broken or knocked-out tooth
Dental injuries need prompt assessment. If a permanent tooth is knocked out, handle it by the crown, not the root. If you cannot put it back easily, keep it in milk and seek dental care immediately. Never reinsert a baby tooth.
A lost filling or crown
Contact the clinic to arrange assessment and explain whether you have pain or sensitivity. Bring the crown or restoration with you if you have it.

What to expect from an urgent dental visit
The first step is understanding your symptoms, medical history and any recent injury or treatment. Your dentist will examine the affected area and may recommend an X-ray if needed.
Depending on the findings, treatment may involve repairing a tooth, replacing a restoration, treating an infection or discussing root canal treatment or extraction. Your dentist will explain the options appropriate to your situation.
Some problems need follow-up appointments after the immediate concern has been addressed.

While you are waiting to see a dentist
Ask a pharmacist about suitable temporary pain relief, especially if you take other medicines or have a medical condition. Follow the medicine’s instructions.
If symptoms worsen, contact a dental professional again. Breathing or swallowing difficulties, severe swelling and uncontrolled bleeding require hospital emergency care.
