Basically, any dental problem that requires immediate treatment to save a tooth, stop ongoing tissue bleeding or alleviate severe pain is considered a dental emergency. A severe infection or abscess in the mouth (facial swelling) can be life-threatening and should be dealt with immediately.

Usually some kind of treatment can be done immediately, depending on the treatment required a follow up visit may be needed.

• Take pain medications to reduce discomfort. Do not put pain medication onto the gums as this will cause burning
• Rinse your mouth with a salt-water solution Apply a cold compress to the cheek that is near the painful area.
• Apply clove oil onto the painful tooth or numbing gel such as bonjela onto the gums

• Call your dentist and arrange an appointment as soon as you can
• In the mean time, have your child rinse their mouth with warm salt water
• If you see a swelling, apply a cold compress against the affected area

You should see a dentist as soon as possible. If it is not too painful, gently try to move the tooth back into position. This will help the gum (periodontal ligaments) hold the tooth into place, leading to more successful treatment options

Find the tooth and put it back in the socket as soon as possible. If it’s dirty, you can gently rinse it off with milk or water. If you can’t get the tooth back in easily-Don’t force it! Put it in cold milk or a saltwater solution only until you can see a dentist, which should be as soon as possible.

There will be an emergency call out fee charged but the treatment fees stay the same as normal hours.

Unfortunately not – unless you have downloaded the Open-pay app and have been approved.
