Emergency Dentist East London
Tackle your dental emergency with same day appointments from Damira Island Health Dental Practice.
Dental emergencies in East London
Get your oral health back on track with the help of our emergency dental appointments. The nature of dental emergencies is that they are not planned, so booking a routine appointment isn’t going to help. Instead, you need access to same-day dental care with the aim of getting your oral health back on track quickly. We are pleased to be able to offer emergency appointment slots on a first-come-first-served basis. You don’t have to be a registered patient to access this premium quality emergency dental care.
If you are struggling with a dental emergency, contact our reception team. For out of hours emergencies, call our practice to hear instructions on what to do next. For life-threatening emergencies, please call 999. This would include uncontrolled bleeding, or swelling that restricts your breathing.
Emergency dental care explained
We accept patients and non-patients alike for emergency dental appointments. Perhaps your usual dentist is busy, or maybe they don’t offer same-day appointments. The goal of our same day emergency care will be to quickly diagnose the issue and stop the pain. You can then decide to complete treatment with us. If you’re not sure if you’re facing a dental emergency or if you should wait for a routine appointment, these are the types of patients we typically see for an emergency appointment slot.
If your pain is keeping you awake at night or preventing you from doing everyday activities, then you should treat this as a dental emergency. This also applies to injuries that leave you with a knocked out, loose or chipped tooth. It would also be an emergency if you have lost a filling, crown, bridge or denture. And finally, if you have complications following oral surgery, even if the treatment wasn’t carried out with us.
What to expect during an emergency appointment with us
During your emergency appointment slot, our goal is to diagnose the issue and then tackle your pain. We will start with a visual examination of your teeth and gums and then we might take X-rays so we can see what is happening with your roots and jaw bone. Resolving your pain is the main goal, and this could be through medication or treatment on the day.
Simple procedures like an extraction or filling may be carried out on the same day, whereas more complex treatment such as root canals or fitting a new crown will have to be booked as a separate treatment. If you decide to continue your treatment with us, this would be an ideal opportunity to register as a patient. You will be kept informed at every stage in your treatment journey so that you can make the right decision for your oral health.
