Severe Toothache
A sudden or severe toothache can signal decay, infection or a cracked tooth, and it shouldn't be ignored. In the meantime, rinse with warm water and gently floss to remove any trapped food. Call us straight away — we'll find the cause and relieve your pain as quickly as possible.
Broken or Chipped Tooth
A broken or chipped tooth often happens from a knock, a fall or biting something hard. Save any pieces if you can, rinse your mouth with warm water, and use a cold compress to ease swelling. Contact us promptly so we can repair the tooth and protect it from further damage or infection.
Knocked-Out Tooth
A knocked-out tooth is a true emergency, and fast action gives the best chance of saving it. Hold the tooth by the crown (never the root), gently rinse it, and if you can, place it back in the socket or keep it in milk. Then call us immediately — ideally you'll be seen within the hour.
Lost Filling or Crown
Losing a filling or crown can leave a tooth sensitive and vulnerable. Keep the crown if you have it, avoid chewing on that side, and book in as soon as you can. We'll restore the tooth and ease any discomfort before it becomes a bigger problem.
Dental Abscess & Swelling
Swelling of the gums or face, a bad taste, or persistent throbbing can point to an abscess or infection that needs prompt care. Dental infections can spread, so please don't wait it out. Call us as soon as possible and we'll treat the infection and relieve the pain.
Wisdom Tooth Pain
Wisdom teeth can cause sudden pain, swelling and difficulty opening your mouth when they become impacted or infected. Rinse with warm salt water for temporary relief and get in touch. We'll assess the tooth and talk you through your options, including removal if it's needed.
Sports & Accident Injuries
Knocks to the mouth from sport or accidents can damage teeth, lips and gums. We treat dental trauma for the whole family and can fit a custom mouthguard to help prevent future injuries. If you've had an injury, get in touch and we'll make sure everything is okay.
Children's Dental Emergencies
Children's dental emergencies — from a knocked or broken baby tooth to a sudden toothache — can be distressing for the whole family. Our gentle team is experienced with young patients and will help your child feel calm and cared for. Call us and we'll see them as soon as we can.
What to Do in a Dental Emergency
If you're in pain or have had an accident, the most important step is to contact us quickly — call 03 9369 3432. For bleeding, apply gentle pressure with clean gauze; for swelling, use a cold compress; and for a knocked-out tooth, keep it moist in milk until you reach us. We'll guide you through the next steps and arrange to see you as soon as possible.
