Pudsey is a much-loved market town in the City of Leeds, set between Leeds and Bradford. Many people choose to travel to us in Ilkley for calm, professional support when urgent issues arise. Our aim is simple. We will ease your pain, stabilise the problem, and agree the next steps for your long-term oral health.
When To Contact An Emergency Dentist
Please get in touch with us as soon as you can if you notice any of the following:
Severe toothache or dental pain that does not settle
Swelling of the gum, face or jaw
A broken or chipped tooth causing discomfort or sharp edges
A lost filling, crown or veneer with sensitivity or pain
A knocked out tooth, adult teeth only
Dental or jaw trauma following an accident
Bleeding after a dental extraction that does not stop with pressure
Signs of a dental abscess or spreading problem, such as a bad taste, fever or difficulty opening your mouth
Practical Self Care Before You Are Seen
Small steps can make things more comfortable while you wait for your appointment.
Toothache: Rinse gently with warm salty water. Use suitable over-the-counter pain relief if safe for you and follow the label. Try to avoid very hot, cold or sugary food and drink.
Lost filling or crown: Keep the crown safe. Temporary dental cement from a pharmacy can protect the area until you are seen. Avoid chewing on that side.
Chipped or broken tooth: If the edge is sharp, place orthodontic wax or sugar-free chewing gum over it to protect your cheek or tongue.
Knocked out adult tooth: Hold the tooth by the crown, not the root. If clean, gently place it back in the socket and bite on a clean cloth. If you cannot do this, store it in milk or saliva and contact us straight away. Do not scrub the root.
Swelling or a suspected abscess: Do not apply heat. Use a cold compress on the outside of your face and arrange urgent dental care.
Bleeding after an extraction: Place clean gauze or a rolled-up clean cloth over the socket and bite firmly for 20 minutes without checking. If bleeding continues, contact a dentist.
Please do not place aspirin directly on the gum or tooth.
Your Emergency Visit At Regent Dental
We keep the process straightforward so you know what to expect and what will happen next.
Prompt access: We will prioritise getting you comfortable. We will do our best to offer a same-day emergency appointment during practice hours, subject to availability.
Calm, clear care: Your dentist will examine the area, take X-rays if needed, and explain the findings in plain English. You will understand your options.
Pain relief first: Easing discomfort is our first goal. We will stabilise the situation where possible. This may include placing a protective dressing, smoothing a sharp edge, re-cementing a crown or draining an abscess if clinically indicated.
Transparent fees: Likely costs will be outlined before treatment begins. You will receive a written estimate for any follow-up care.
Ongoing plan: If further treatment is required, we will arrange a convenient appointment and set out a plan that suits your needs.

Our Approach And What It Means For You
A dental emergency can feel worrying. We keep things simple and steady. You will be welcomed by a friendly team. We will explain what we are checking for and what your options are in plain terms.
If we need digital X-rays or photographs, they help us see what is happening so planning is faster and your care can be tailored to you. Where possible, we will carry out the first stage of treatment at the same visit. This may ease symptoms and protect the area until any further care is completed.
We will also talk about how to reduce the chance of a repeat problem. This might include advice on home care, tips to lower sensitivity, or booking a follow-up appointment to complete a long-lasting restoration.
Your comfort is central to how we work. If you feel nervous, please tell us before or during your visit. Clear communication, gentle techniques and time for questions can make a big difference. Our aim is to restore comfort, provide clarity, and support your long-term oral health - today and in the weeks ahead.
