Dental emergencies in Southampton

If you’re struggling with dental pain in Southampton, then we are here to help. We’re able to offer same-day emergency dental care for both registered patients and non-registered patients. So if your usual dentist cannot accommodate you, or if you don’t currently have a dentist, you’ll always have somewhere to turn. We can also provide support for patients dealing with complex phobias, so you don’t have to avoid treatment any longer. Our friendly and supportive team can help you to navigate this process with ease, ensuring that your dental problem does not cause any further damage.

Our dentists in Southampton offer flexible appointment times, including evenings and weekends, so you can access care when you need it most. There are some situations that are medical emergencies, and you should therefore call 999 or go to A&E, rather than visiting the practice. This includes excessive bleeding, severe trauma to the face and jaw, and swelling that makes it difficult to breathe or swallow.

Emergency dental care explained

We recognise that patients cannot plan for dental emergencies, and we don’t recommend waiting until your next routine checkup to get help. By ignoring the problem, it could become much worse, causing further damage to your teeth and gums. At the first sign of a problem, we recommend booking an emergency appointment with our team. Examples of dental emergencies could include extreme or sudden toothache, knocked out teeth, chipped teeth with sharp edges, lost crowns, broken dentures or issues with your orthodontic appliance.

If you’re in pain due to a dental problem, you should always seek professional help, even if nothing appears to be wrong. With a same-day emergency appointment, we will quickly get to the heart of the issue and provide treatment to put things right. Call our reception team today to book your emergency dental appointment in Southampton.

Common types of dental emergencies

What to expect during your emergency appointment

The purpose of an emergency dental appointment is to quickly diagnose the issue and address your pain. In some cases, treatment might be available on the same day, but for more complex treatment you might be asked to return at a later date to complete your treatment. We will examine your teeth and gums, take a patient history, and then take X-rays to get a better picture of what is happening below the gumline. We’ll address your pain, either with treatment or with medication to control any infection. The goal will always be to help you to find relief from your dental pain so you can get back to enjoying your life. We can also support nervous patients who might find themselves in pain due to avoiding dental appointments. Our supportive staff provide a judgement-free environment where the focus will always be on resolving your discomfort.
