We have same day appointments availableEmergency Dentistry

I want to know more about Emergency Dentistry, please!

Emergency dentistry is the provision of immediate dental care to address urgent issues, especially relief of pain and infection.

We understand dental emergencies can happen to any of us, just like our car breaking down!

We open after hours. We have same day appointments available. We accept walk-in patients for urgent dental emergencies whenever possible. Please call us first to coordinate appointment timing.

Emergency dentistry includes pain, severe toothache, infection and abscesses, broken or chipped teeth, knocked out teeth, even fractures and swollen faces.

The benefit of emergency dentistry is that seeking care ASAP can provide the fastest relief, prevent further damages, reduce the need for more complex and costly procedures, and achieve better long-term oral health.

  • If you have a painful toothache, seek dental care immediately to minimise the potential for the situation to worsen. In the interim, Panadol alternating with Ibuprofen (if suitable) are the most effective pain medications for short term dental pain.
  • If you have a knocked-out tooth, time is of the essence. Do not touch the root. Wash it with salty water if dirty and replace it, if possible, otherwise keep damp and seek dental care immediately.
  • If you have a swollen face and are struggling to swallow, breathe, have whole body symptoms of the flu where antibiotics are not effective, you must visit an emergency doctor immediately.

Yes! We understand life is busy, but your teeth are still important. We are open until 8pm on Tuesdays and Thursdays and until 2pm on Saturdays with no surcharges. Sunday appointments are by special arrangement only.
