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 needs to be assessed so we can find the cause and relieve it.
Broken or chipped teeth
We can assess a broken tooth and protect it, often with a white filling or crown.
Lost fillings or crowns
A lost filling, veneer or crown can leave a tooth sensitive and exposed. We can help to restore it.
Swelling or infection
Swelling or signs of infection should be seen promptly. A dental infection will not go away without treatment.
Dental trauma
Knocks and injuries to the teeth or mouth, including a knocked-out tooth, should be checked as soon as possible.
Braces and jaw pain
A brace wire digging in or snapping, or pain around the jaw. Read about jaw pain treatment.
