What Counts As A Dental Emergency
Please get in touch promptly if any of the following apply to you:
Severe toothache or dental pain that is not easing with pain relief
Facial swelling, a gum abscess or a bad taste that suggests infection
A broken, chipped or cracked tooth
A knocked out or dislodged adult tooth
A lost filling, crown or veneer that is painful or leaving sharp edges
Trauma to the mouth, lip or tongue
Wisdom tooth pain or difficulty opening your mouth
A broken denture, retainer or orthodontic wire that is rubbing
We are here to listen, assess, and act quickly.
Red Flags That Need Immediate Medical Attention
If you have significant facial swelling affecting your eye, breathing or swallowing, uncontrolled bleeding, or trauma to the head or neck, call 999 or visit A&E straight away.
What You Can Do Before You Arrive
Simple steps can help protect the area and ease discomfort until we see you.
Pain relief: Take paracetamol or ibuprofen as directed if it is safe for you. Avoid aspirin if you are bleeding. Do not place painkillers directly on the gum.
Swelling: Apply a cold compress to the outside of your face for short periods. Do not use heat.
Broken tooth or filling. Keep the area as clean as you can. If a sharp edge is catching, dental wax or temporary dental cement from a chemist can help protect your cheek or tongue.
Lost crown: Keep the crown safe. Temporary dental cement from a chemist may be used if appropriate. Do not use superglue.
Knocked out adult tooth: Hold the tooth by the crown, not the root. If dirty, gently rinse with milk or saline. If you feel confident, place it back in the socket and bite on a clean cloth. If you cannot reimplant it, keep the tooth moist in milk or saliva and contact us urgently. Do not reimplant a baby tooth.
Bleeding: Apply firm pressure with a clean cloth or gauze for 10 to 15 minutes.
If you are unsure what to do, call us and we will guide you.
Your Emergency Visit At Regent Dental
A Calm Welcome And Clear Assessment
You will be greeted by our friendly team and taken through a focused consultation. We will listen to your concerns, examine the area and, when needed, take digital X rays. These images help us make a swift and accurate diagnosis so your care is targeted and effective.
Immediate Measures To Relieve Pain
Our first priority is to ease discomfort and stabilise the problem. Depending on your needs, this may include smoothing sharp edges, placing a temporary dressing or filling, draining an abscess, providing root canal pain relief or performing an extraction when appropriate. Antibiotics are prescribed only when clinically indicated. We will explain why they may or may not be helpful for you.
Clear Options, Fees And Next Steps
Before any treatment begins, we will explain your options, likely outcomes and fees in plain language. You will have time to ask questions and make informed choices. Once the urgent issue is under control, we will plan any follow up care needed to restore function and support your long term oral health.

Aftercare And Prevention
Relief during your appointment is only the start. We will provide tailored advice to help healing and reduce the risk of the problem returning. Preventive check ups and regular hygiene visits allow us to spot small issues before they become urgent. If you grind your teeth, a protective nightguard may be recommended to limit wear and reduce fracture risk. For broken or heavily filled teeth, long term solutions such as crowns or onlays can strengthen the tooth and improve function, subject to clinical assessment.
