Know the signs

What is a dental emergency?

Swelling, bleeding, pain, and pus from your teeth or gums are all indicators of a dental emergency. Additionally, cracked, loose, broken, or knocked-out teeth are signs that immediate attention is needed. If you experience any of these symptoms, call My E20 Dentist immediately on 020 4572 0108 for an emergency appointment.

Accidents or injuries affecting your mouth can be distressing. Even minor chips in teeth need to be looked at and fixed quickly. If you’ve knocked out one or more teeth, it’s crucial to see a dental professional quickly, as there may be an opportunity to reimplant them.

What to expect

What to expect at your emergency appointment

When you arrive, we’ll get you settled quickly and your dentist will start by listening to what’s brought you in - where the pain is, when it started, and anything that’s made it better or worse. From there, we’ll examine the tooth or area causing the problem and, if it’ll help us see what’s going on beneath the surface, take a small X-ray (charged separately at £15).

Once we understand what’s happening, we’ll focus on two things: getting you out of pain, and stabilising the issue so it doesn’t get worse. Depending on what we find, that might mean a temporary filling, antibiotics, pain relief, or starting treatment such as a root canal or extraction. Whatever the next step is, we’ll explain it clearly, talk you through your options, and give you a price before we do anything.

A few things worth knowing:

  • Your emergency appointment is focused on the specific problem you’ve come in with. It does not include a full mouth check-up.
  • The £100 fee covers the consultation and advice. Any treatment is quoted and charged separately.
  • Most appointments take 30 to 60 minutes. Some issues are resolved in a single visit; others are stabilised first and completed at a follow-up.
  • If you’d like a full check-up afterwards, we’ll be happy to book you in as a new or returning patient - just ask at reception.

Before you get to us

Caring for your dental emergency while you wait

With same-day and out-of-hours appointments available with our team of local dentists, you shouldn’t have to wait too long to get help with your dental emergency.

01

For pain or swelling

You can try relieving any discomfort or swelling by taking an anti-inflammatory medication like Ibuprofen, following the recommended dosage guidelines.

02

For a cracked or broken tooth

Gather all the pieces and carefully wrap them in a clean, damp cloth, then bring them with you to your appointment.

03

For a tooth that has fallen out

Carefully rinse it in lukewarm, salt water, ensuring not to handle it by the root.

Steer clear of aspirin, as it contains blood-thinning properties that can worsen the situation.

Good to know

Frequently asked questions

about emergency dental care

Your dentist will start by listening to what’s going on and examining the affected area - the specific tooth or area causing you pain. An emergency consultation is focused on this problem only; it does not include a full mouth check-up, and any treatment needed is charged separately. If an X-ray would help us see what’s happening beneath the surface, we’ll take one (charged separately at £15). From there, we’ll focus on getting you out of pain and stabilising the issue, which may involve a temporary filling, a course of antibiotics, pain relief, or in some cases starting treatment such as a root canal or extraction. We’ll always explain what’s happening, what your options are, and what each step will cost before we do anything.
Most emergency appointments last between 30 and 60 minutes, depending on what treatment is needed. Some issues can be resolved fully in one visit, others are stabilised first and followed up with a longer appointment to complete the treatment.
Dental problems rarely resolve on their own and often worsen over time. Acting quickly can be the difference between saving a tooth and losing it, particularly with knocked-out or broken teeth where every hour matters. Untreated infections can also spread into the surrounding bone or even further, which is why we always advise getting seen as soon as possible.
The most common emergency treatments include temporary fillings, pain relief, antibiotics for infection, repairs to chipped or broken teeth, re-cementing crowns or bridges that have come loose, root canal treatment for severe infection or nerve pain, and in some cases extraction when a tooth cannot be saved. Your dentist will talk you through the options before any treatment begins.
An emergency consultation at My E20 Dentist is £100. This covers the assessment of the specific problem you’ve come in with, plus advice on how to resolve it - it does not include a full mouth check-up or any treatment. X-rays, if needed, are charged separately at £15 each. Any treatment carried out during or after your appointment is quoted on top, and you’ll be given a clear price before anything is started.
The most common risks of delaying care are infection spreading from a tooth into the surrounding bone or jaw, losing a tooth that could have been saved, and minor cracks turning into full breaks that need more complex treatment. Acting early almost always means simpler, less expensive treatment and a better long term outcome.
