Urgent care for severe dental pain

Severe toothache, a knocked-out tooth, or a dental abscess with facial swelling cannot wait for a standard appointment. These symptoms usually mean an oral infection or a cracked tooth, and an untreated dental infection can spread to the adjacent teeth and, in severe cases, may need hospital treatment. Our emergency dentists in London find the cause at the first visit and stop the infection reaching the nerve inside the tooth.

Specialist-led emergency care outside normal hours

We diagnose before we treat, so you get the correct treatment rather than an unnecessary procedure, whether that is immediate relief or a referral for complex work. If you have a knocked-out tooth, time is critical to the outcome.

Every treatment is itemised, so you know the cost before we begin. If you are managing a crisis at home, our dental emergency aftercare guide gives immediate steps to take before you reach the practice.

Who we can help on weekends

We see patients in acute dental distress when standard clinics are closed, including those with a broken or chipped tooth, toothache and severe tooth pain, or a serious infection. If you feel anxious about visiting a dentist, sedation options are available.

We assess each case to decide the fastest way to resolve it, stabilise your condition, and manage the pain.

Your emergency visit process

Urgent clinical triage

We begin by assessing your symptoms to decide how urgent your care is, so patients in acute pain or with a dental abscess and facial swelling are seen first.

Emergency dental examination

The clinician examines the affected area to diagnose the problem, looking for infection, fractures, or a lost filling or crown. This defines the immediate steps needed to stop pain or prevent further damage.

Immediate pain relief

We provide the treatment needed to stabilise the tooth and manage the pain. We are honest about the timeline: some out-of-hours visits provide a temporary fix to get you through the weekend.

Stabilising the tooth

We protect the tooth and the surrounding gum, which may mean a dressing or a temporary restoration, and we explain any possible complications so you know what to expect during recovery.

Long-term treatment planning

Once the emergency is managed, we plan the permanent solution and the final restoration. You leave with a date for the follow-up appointment to complete the work.

Specialist-led emergency care

We prioritise pain relief and resolving the underlying problem, whether that is an abscess, facial swelling, severe toothache, or trauma such as a knocked-out tooth, and we carry out the restorative treatment that follows.

The clinical team is led by Dr Ope Sodeinde, GDC-registered specialist periodontist (GDC No. 104071).

Urgent Care Patient Experiences

We work in a calm, unhurried way and give honest options in a no-pressure consultation. You can find details of emergency dentist costs in London to help plan your visit.

She worked late into the night and although I had to hold my mouth open for 3 hours I was very impressed by her (and the Team’s) professionalism and it’s a credit to her desire to achieve the best result for her patients.

Emergency Care Questions

Do you have a clinic in Feltham?

No. We provide emergency appointments at our Primrose Hill practice in London NW1.

How much does an out-of-hours visit cost?

Fees depend on the clinical needs identified at your assessment. We explain all costs before starting any treatment.

How long will the visit take?

That depends on the complexity of the emergency. The assessment identifies the problem and the treatment time it needs.

Is the treatment painful?

We use local anaesthetic for emergency procedures. If you have bleeding after extraction or a serious infection, we assess it immediately.

Arrange your emergency assessment

We see urgent cases first at our Primrose Hill practice. We explain what happens at your same-day emergency appointment and how to book so you know what to expect when you arrive.
