Emergency Dental Care: Frequently Asked Questions

Call us directly for immediate assistance.
What counts as a dental emergency?
Severe toothache, knocked-out teeth, broken restorations, swelling, bleeding, or signs of infection (such as pus or fever) all qualify as emergencies.
Can I just walk in without an appointment?
We recommend calling ahead if possible, but we do our best to accommodate emergency cases the same day.
What can I expect during emergency treatment at your dental practice?
Our first goal is to stop your pain quickly and safely. At our dental practice, we use effective anaesthesia and gentle techniques to ensure you’re as comfortable as possible throughout your emergency visit.
What should I do if I knock out a tooth?
Keep the tooth moist (in milk or saliva) and seek care immediately — within 30 minutes if possible. Do not scrub the tooth or touch the root.
Will I need further treatment after the emergency visit?
Possibly. Emergency care stabilises the issue, but some situations (like broken teeth or infections) may need follow-up treatments, such as crowns or root canals.
