At Purley Dental Care, we provide a range of emergency treatments to address urgent dental concerns. Our priority is to relieve pain, restore function, and protect your oral health.

• Same-Day Toothache Relief: Tooth pain can be debilitating, affecting your ability to eat, sleep, and concentrate. We diagnose the cause of your toothache and provide immediate treatment, whether it’s a filling, root canal, or prescription medication to manage infection.
• Broken or Chipped Teeth Repair: Damaged teeth can impact both appearance and function. We offer composite bonding, crowns, and other restorative solutions to repair and strengthen broken teeth.
• Knocked-Out Tooth Treatment: If you’ve lost a tooth due to an accident or injury, acting quickly increases the chances of saving it. We provide emergency reimplantation where possible or alternative solutions like dental implants or bridges.
• Emergency Abscess & Infection Treatment: Oral infections can spread rapidly if left untreated. We manage dental abscesses with drainage, antibiotics, and root canal therapy when necessary to eliminate infection and prevent further complications.
• Replacement of Lost Fillings, Crowns, or Veneers: A missing filling or crown can leave your tooth exposed and vulnerable. We offer same-day replacements to restore function and protect the tooth from further damage.
• Treatment for Oral Injuries & Bleeding Gums: If you have excessive gum bleeding, cuts, or soft tissue injuries in your mouth, we provide expert treatment to stop the bleeding and ensure proper healing.

Knowing how to react in a dental emergency can make a big difference in treatment outcomes. Here’s what to do in common urgent situations:

Severe Toothache

• Rinse your mouth with warm salt water to ease discomfort.
• Avoid extremely hot or cold foods and drinks.
• Take over-the-counter pain relief if needed and contact us immediately.

Knocked-Out Tooth

• Handle the tooth by the crown, not the root.
• Rinse it gently with water—do not scrub or remove any tissue fragments.
• Try placing the tooth back in its socket or store it in milk and visit us immediately.

Broken or Chipped Tooth

• To clean the area, rinse your mouth with warm water.
• Put a cold compress on it to help with swelling.
• Avoid biting down on hard foods and schedule an emergency appointment.

Dental Abscess or Infection

• Do not ignore swelling or pus, as it can lead to serious complications.
• Rinse with warm salt water to manage discomfort.
• Seek emergency dental care as soon as possible to prevent further infection.
