Colne is a market town in the Borough of Pendle in Lancashire, and we regularly see patients from across Pendle, including Nelson, Barrowford, Foulridge, Trawden, Earby and Barnoldswick. Whether you are new to us or already part of our practice, you can contact our team for prompt, professional support.
Same-Day Urgent Appointments Whenever Possible
Emergencies never pick a good time. We prioritise urgent cases and will always try to offer a same day appointment where we can. If you are not sure whether it counts as urgent, call us. We will listen, ask a few questions, and guide you on the safest next steps.
What Is A Dental Emergency
Please seek urgent help if any of the following apply. If you are unsure, it is always best to call for advice.
Severe toothache or pain that keeps you awake or does not settle with pain relief
Facial swelling, a gum boil or suspected dental abscess
A broken, cracked or chipped tooth causing pain or sharp edges
A knocked-out (adult) tooth
A loose, broken or lost filling, crown or veneer that is painful or affects your bite
Bleeding after a dental procedure that is not stopping
Trauma to the mouth or jaw
Immediate Self Care At Home
While you arrange your appointment, a few simple steps can help protect the area and make you more comfortable.
Pain relief: Take over the counter paracetamol or ibuprofen if you can do so safely. Follow the packet instructions. Avoid aspirin for dental pain in children. Do not place aspirin on the gum.
Swelling: Apply a cold compress on the outside of your face for short periods.
Lost filling or broken tooth: Keep the area clean. Temporary dental cement from a pharmacy can protect the tooth until you are seen.
Lost crown or veneer: Keep the restoration safe and bring it with you. Avoid strong household glues.
Knocked-out adult tooth: Hold the tooth by the crown, not the root. If it is clean, try to gently place it back into the socket and bite on a clean cloth. If this is not possible, store the tooth in milk or your own saliva and contact us straight away.
Food and hygiene: Avoid very hot or cold foods. Choose softer foods. Clean the area gently with a soft brush to keep it as clear of plaque as possible.
If you are worried at any point, call our reception team. We will guide you step by step.
Your Emergency Visit, Step By Step
Focused assessment: We begin with a calm, thorough chat about your symptoms. We then examine the area and take any X rays needed to reach a clear diagnosis.
Immediate relief: Your comfort comes first. We aim to reduce pain and stabilise the problem at this visit.
Clear options: Once we have explained what we have found, we outline your treatment choices and fees before anything starts. Please ask questions at any time.
Definitive care or interim measures: Depending on what is needed, this may include a protective dressing or temporary filling, recementing a crown, smoothing a sharp edge, gently releasing a build-up if appropriate, starting root canal treatment, or carefully removing a tooth if this is the best option. Antibiotics are prescribed only when clinically appropriate.
Follow up: We plan any further visits to complete treatment and support your long term oral health.
