Emergency Dentist Loughborough

Dental emergencies can happen at any time, which means you can’t plan for them or schedule appointments in advance. When you’re dealing with a dental emergency, it can derail your entire day, making it difficult to sleep, eat, focus on work or enjoy everyday life. With our help, you can quickly get to the heart of the issue and put things right. This will prevent further discomfort and will also avoid further damage to your oral health. Any time you are in pain due to dental problems should be treated as an emergency. We set aside a number of appointments every day to help patients in need of emergency assistance. You don’t even have to be registered with us to make the most of this service, as we accept registered and non-registered patients alike. In some instances, a dental emergency can become life threatening and you should call 999 or go to A&E rather than waiting to see an emergency dentist. If you are struggling to breathe or swallow due to dental swelling, or if you have uncontrolled bleeding, always treat this as a medical emergency.

An emergency appointment is not like a routine checkup, as the goal is to assess the cause of your dental emergency. We’ll start with an examination of your mouth and ask questions about the issues you are having. We might take X-rays to get a better picture of what is going on below the gum line.

We’ll create a treatment plan that can either be completed on the same day, or during a follow-up appointment. Simple treatments like fillings and extractions can often be completed on the same day. We’ll always focus on helping you to overcome your dental pain so that you can get back to enjoying your life. If you are not registered with a dentist, we’ll invite you to sign up so you can get your oral health back on track with us.
