Fast, Calm Help When Your Tooth Hurts
Toothache, swelling, or a broken tooth can appear out of the blue. If you are in Colne town centre and need help fast, our team is here. Regent Dental in Ilkley, West Yorkshire, offers urgent and emergency appointments for new and existing patients.
We focus on keeping you calm, easing pain, and setting out a clear plan. Many people travel to us from across Pendle, including Nelson and Burnley. You will be treated with care from the first call.
What Counts As A Dental Emergency
Please contact us promptly if any of the following apply:
Severe or worsening toothache that is not settling with pain relief.
Facial swelling, a dental abscess, or signs of infection such as fever or feeling unwell.
A knocked-out (avulsed) or loosened adult tooth.
A broken or fractured tooth that is painful or has sharp edges.
Bleeding after an extraction that will not stop.
Trauma to the mouth, jaw, or teeth.
Lost fillings or crowns causing pain or sensitivity.
Wisdom tooth pain or swelling.
A broken denture or orthodontic wire that is rubbing or causing injury.
Self-Care Tips Until You Are Seen
Simple steps can make you more comfortable while you arrange your visit:
Pain relief: Take paracetamol and/or ibuprofen if you can take them safely. Follow the label and do not exceed the stated dose. Do not place aspirin on the gum.
Swelling: Hold a cold compress on your cheek in short intervals. Do not apply heat.
Knocked-out adult tooth: Hold it by the white crown, not the root. If it is clean, gently place it back in the socket and bite on a clean cloth. If you cannot, keep it in milk or your saliva and bring it with you. Do not re-implant baby teeth.
Broken tooth or filling: Keep the area clean. Temporary dental cement from a pharmacy can cover sharp edges until we see you.
Bleeding: Apply firm pressure with clean gauze or a cloth for 10–15 minutes without checking too soon.
If you are unsure what to do, call us. We will guide you.
Your Emergency Visit - What To Expect
When you get in touch, we will do a short phone triage. We will listen, offer first steps, and book the most suitable appointment.
Please tell us about any medical conditions, allergies, and medication. This helps us advise you safely.
On The Day
Your dentist will examine the area and may take focused X-rays.
Our first priority is to relieve pain and stabilise the situation.
We may smooth a sharp edge, place a temporary dressing, treat a dental abscess, or carry out focused care to remove the cause of pain.
We use modern diagnostics to support accurate assessment. This helps us treat the source of the problem and reduce the chance of symptoms returning.
Once you are comfortable, we will explain any next steps for long-term care. This may include a repair, a filling, root canal treatment, or replacement of a restoration. We will set out the options in plain language and answer your questions.
Fees And Consent
An emergency appointment fee applies.
We will discuss and agree any treatment before we begin.
You will receive a clear outline of costs.
If a temporary measure is needed first, we will explain the stages and arrange follow-up.
Appointments And Availability
We aim to see urgent cases as quickly as possible, often the same day, subject to availability.
Contact us early for the best chance of a same-day appointment.
If we cannot offer an immediate visit, we will advise you on safe ways to manage symptoms until you arrive.
Emergency Care For New Patients
You do not need to be registered with us to get help.
We welcome patients from Colne town centre for urgent care.
With your consent, we can share information with your usual dentist where helpful.
Antibiotics And Toothache
Antibiotics are only helpful when there is a spreading infection.
Most toothaches need dental treatment, such as a filling, root canal, or repair of a damaged restoration.
At your appointment we will assess the cause and recommend the right approach for you.
Support For Broken Dentures And Orthodontic Issues
If a denture has cracked or a clasp has broken, bring all the pieces with you. We can often carry out a repair or provide a short-term solution to keep you comfortable while a laboratory repair is arranged.
If a wire or bracket is rubbing, we can smooth sharp areas or provide wax to protect your cheeks and lips until further orthodontic care is completed.
