DENTAL EMERGENCIES EDINBURGH

We allocate time each day to deal with dental emergencies or dental urgencies.

We ask that you contact the practice as soon as possible so we can allocate a space to you the same day.

If the practice is closed you will need to decide if you can wait for the practice to be open again or if you need to see a dentist urgently.

Again, just ring the practice out of hours and you can listen to a recorded message giving instructions on how to access emergency care.

If you are not a patient of the practice we would be delighted to see you for a same day emergency depending on availability.

COMMON DENTAL EMERGENCIES

There are few dental emergencies, usually a swollen face or complications following removal of a tooth, however, there are plenty of dental urgencies. When a tooth is broken or a crown becomes loose you will want to be seen as soon as possible.

There are other instances that you may not have considered such as a broken or even knocked out front tooth. More common in children, it also happens with adults who may be more active with sport.

Remember, if you are participating in contact sports you should always wear a close fitting custom made mouth guard.

For more information on guidance when a tooth is broken or knocked out visit Dental Trauma Guide

What to do if you knock a tooth out

  • Locate the tooth holding it by the white crown part
  • Place the tooth back into the socket if possible
  • If it is covered in debris rinse gently before placing back- not too much though
  • Once tooth is back in socket bite down on a handkerchief
  • If it is not possible to replace, store in some milk or even in the mouth and
  • Seek emergency dental care
