We understand how painful or traumatic a dental emergency can be and we are here to help you in this difficult time.
You will need to see a dentist urgently if you have had a dental trauma, pain, or infection and swelling.
Please call the practice as soon as you are aware of the problem.
Our emergency dental appointments are designed to assess the problem, provide a diagnosis and get you out of pain.
We offer urgent clinics for patients who have lost a filling or chipped their teeth and will aim to see you as soon as possible.
We will assess your tooth and decide the best option for you.
We may be able to complete your treatment in this appointment, if the treatment is more complex or requiring a longer appointment, we may temporize your tooth and schedule a further appointment to complete the treatment.
If further appointments are required to restore your teeth, we will discuss the treatment options and any additional charges with you.
Dental Emergency Procedure
Should you have a dental emergency during Practice hours (8.30am-5.40pm Monday to Friday), please telephone 01142661265 at your earliest opportunity. The reception team will ask you a few questions to enable us to triage your dental problem. A member of the practice team will review your dental emergency and contact you to offer the most appropriate appointment.
