While you wait for your appointment, it’s important to manage the pain and avoid further damage:
A dental emergency is any problem that needs urgent attention, whether you’re in pain, have injured a tooth or are worried something could get worse if left untreated.
Common dental emergencies include severe toothache, a knocked-out or broken tooth, swelling, signs of infection, or a lost filling or crown. If you’re unsure whether you need urgent care, it’s always best to get advice.
If you’re dealing with a dental emergency, contact your nearest Tooth Club practice as soon as possible. The team can understand what’s happened and advise you on the best next step. The sooner you get advice, the quicker the cause of the problem can be identified and treated.
Severe or ongoing tooth pain shouldn’t be ignored, even if it comes and goes. Toothache can have many causes, including infection, decay or damage to a tooth. A dentist can assess what’s causing the pain and recommend the right treatment to help you feel comfortable again.
If you’ve knocked out a tooth, try to see a dentist as quickly as possible. Acting quickly can improve the chances of saving the tooth.
Handle the tooth carefully by the crown (the part you normally see), avoid touching the root and keep it clean. If possible, store it in milk or saliva until you can get dental advice.
The cost of emergency dental treatment depends on what’s wrong and what treatment is needed. After assessing the problem, your dentist will explain your options and provide clear information about the costs before any treatment goes ahead. See our current fees.
