When Every Second Counts: Emergency Dentistry at With U Dental

Dental emergencies don’t wait for a convenient time—they can strike when you least expect it.


Whether it’s a knocked-out tooth, severe pain, or a sudden swelling, you need quick, effective care that gets you out of pain and back to normal as soon as possible. That’s where we come in.

At With U Dental, we’re here to handle your dental emergencies with the speed and expertise you need, so you can focus on getting better.

What is Emergency Dentistry?

Emergency dentistry is all about providing immediate care for urgent dental issues that can’t wait for a regular appointment. This could be anything from a toothache that’s keeping you up at night to a broken tooth from an unexpected fall. The goal is to relieve your pain, address the immediate problem, and prevent any further damage.

At With U Dental, we understand that dental emergencies can be stressful and sometimes even frightening. That’s why we prioritise getting you seen as quickly as possible. Our team is equipped to handle a wide range of emergencies with the latest techniques and technology, ensuring that you receive the best care in the shortest amount of time.

What Is Emergency Dentistry At With U Dental

Problems this treatment solves

Emergency dentistry covers a variety of urgent dental issues, including:

  • Severe Toothache: When over-the-counter painkillers aren’t enough, and the pain is unbearable, it’s time for emergency dental care. We’ll diagnose the cause and provide immediate relief.
  • Knocked-Out Tooth: If you’ve had a tooth knocked out due to injury, time is of the essence. With prompt care, there’s a good chance we can save the tooth.
  • Chipped, Cracked, or Broken Teeth: Accidents happen, and when they involve your teeth, it’s crucial to get them fixed quickly to prevent further damage or infection.
  • Lost or Damaged Fillings/Crowns: A lost filling or crown can leave your tooth vulnerable to further damage. Emergency care ensures that your tooth is protected and restored.
  • Swelling or Abscess: If you have swelling, an abscess, or signs of infection, it’s important to seek emergency care to prevent the condition from worsening.

FAQS

What should I do if I knock out a tooth?

If you knock out a tooth, try to place it back in its socket without touching the root. If that’s not possible, store it in milk or a saline solution and get to our clinic immediately. The sooner you see us, the better the chances of saving the tooth.

How quickly should I seek help for a severe toothache?

If you have a severe toothache that doesn’t go away with painkillers or is accompanied by swelling or fever, you should seek emergency dental care immediately. Quick treatment can prevent the issue from worsening.

What if I lose a filling or crown?

If you lose a filling or crown, it’s important to protect the tooth until you can see us. Avoid chewing on that side of your mouth and try to keep the area clean. Contact us as soon as possible to get it repaired.
