Dental Emergencies

13 000 NO GAP (1300 066 427)

At DentalOne, we prioritise prompt and effective care for your dental emergencies. If you’re experiencing pain, contact our clinic to schedule the next available appointment. If for example you begin to experience moderate pain on a Sunday (out of hours) and believe you can make it through the night without being seen to immediately, the best course of action is to call a dentist Monday morning. DentalOne‘s emergency dentists set aside time and always strive to prioritise dental emergencies.

For emergencies after our regular hours, please call 000 or arrange an appointment at the Royal Dental Hospital. Your dental health and comfort are our top priorities, and we’re here to help whenever you need us.

Various dental conditions that cause discomfort can negatively impact not only your oral health but also your overall well-being in some instances.

Any of the following symptoms need urgent dental care:

  • Severe Toothache: Persistent or severe tooth pain can indicate an underlying issue like an infection or a damaged tooth.
  • Swelling: Swelling in the gums, face, or jaw can be a sign of infection, abscess, or another serious dental problem.
  • Bleeding: Uncontrolled bleeding from the gums, especially after an injury or dental procedure, requires immediate attention.
  • Trauma: If a tooth is broken, cracked, or knocked out due to an accident or injury, prompt dental care is necessary to save the tooth if possible.
  • Loose or Lost Filling/Crown: A loose or lost filling or crown can expose the underlying tooth to further damage and infection.
  • Painful Wisdom Teeth: Impacted or infected wisdom teeth can cause significant pain and may require extraction.
  • Abscess: A dental abscess is a serious infection that can cause severe pain, swelling, and fever. It requires immediate treatment to prevent further complications.

These are just a few examples, but any sudden or severe dental problem that causes significant pain, swelling, or bleeding should be considered a dental emergency and treated promptly by a dentist.
