Our endodontics specialist Dr. Neha Patel holds MClinDent(Ed) and MEndoRCS(Ed) qualifications, meaning she can perform advanced root canal treatments and pain management procedures that general dentists often refer elsewhere. We use 3D CBCT imaging to pinpoint exactly what's causing your pain, whether it's deep infection, nerve damage, or gum disease.
You get same-day emergency appointments at our Regent's Park location, plus sedation dentistry options if you're anxious about treatment. Our specialists work together to save your natural teeth whenever possible, using advanced techniques like microscopic endodontics and regenerative procedures that many practices don't offer. We're registered with the Care Quality Commission and follow strict infection control protocols. Most importantly, we don't just mask the pain with temporary solutions. We fix the underlying problem permanently, whether that requires root canal therapy, periodontal treatment, or in severe cases, extraction and immediate replacement with dental implants backed by our 10-year warranty.
Severe tooth pain is an intense, often debilitating discomfort that signals serious underlying dental problems requiring immediate professional attention. This acute pain typically indicates infection, advanced decay, or nerve damage within the tooth. The pain may be constant or triggered by temperature, pressure, or touch. It can radiate to your jaw, ear, or head, making daily activities like eating, drinking, or sleeping extremely difficult.
You should seek emergency dental treatment if you experience throbbing pain that keeps you awake at night. Swelling around the affected tooth demands urgent care. Fever accompanying tooth pain suggests infection spreading beyond the tooth itself. Pain that worsens rather than improves over 24 hours requires professional intervention. These symptoms indicate conditions that can become life threatening without proper treatment.
At London Dental Specialists, our expert team led by Dr. Ope Sodeinde provides immediate relief for severe tooth pain through advanced diagnostic techniques and targeted treatments. Dr. Neha Patel, our Endodontics Specialist, expertly manages complex root canal procedures when infection reaches the tooth's nerve. Our Central London clinic serves patients throughout the greater London area with emergency appointments available for urgent cases.

Severe tooth pain often signals serious underlying issues that require immediate attention. The pain may stem from deep decay reaching the tooth's nerve, an abscess or infection, a cracked tooth, or advanced gum disease. You should seek emergency treatment if you experience throbbing pain that keeps you awake, swelling in your face or gums, fever accompanying tooth pain, or pain when biting down. At London Dental Specialists, our experienced team, led by Dr. Ope Sodeinde, provides comprehensive emergency care throughout Central London and the greater London area. We understand that severe tooth pain can be frightening. Rest assured, we have the expertise to diagnose the problem quickly and provide effective relief.
We prioritise emergency cases and aim to see patients with severe tooth pain as soon as possible, often the same day. During your visit, we'll first focus on providing immediate pain relief through local anaesthesia and appropriate medications. Our assessment includes digital X-rays and clinical examination to identify the exact cause of your pain. Most patients experience significant relief within the first appointment. The complete treatment may take additional visits depending on whether you need root canal therapy, extraction, or other procedures. We also offer sedation dentistry for anxious patients, ensuring your comfort throughout treatment. Our goal is to eliminate your pain quickly whilst addressing the underlying problem to prevent future issues.
This depends entirely on the condition of your tooth, which we'll determine through careful examination and imaging. Many teeth experiencing severe pain can be saved through root canal treatment, especially when the pain is due to infected or inflamed pulp inside the tooth. Root canal therapy removes the damaged tissue whilst preserving your natural tooth structure. However, if the tooth is severely damaged, cracked beyond repair, or has extensive bone loss around it, extraction might be the best option. Our specialists will always attempt to save your natural tooth when possible. If extraction is necessary, we'll discuss replacement options like dental implants to restore your smile and function. You'll never be left wondering about your treatment options.
We provide comprehensive pain management to ensure your comfort throughout treatment. Local anaesthesia completely numbs the treatment area during procedures, so you won't feel pain during root canals, extractions, or other treatments. For anxious patients, we offer various sedation options ranging from mild oral sedation to more advanced techniques. After treatment, we provide detailed instructions for managing any discomfort at home. This typically includes recommendations for over-the-counter pain relievers or prescribed medications when necessary. We also advise on managing swelling with cold compresses and provide 24-hour contact information for any concerns. Our minimally invasive techniques help reduce post-treatment discomfort significantly. Most patients find their post-treatment discomfort is much less severe than their original tooth pain.
Treatment costs vary depending on the specific procedure needed to address your tooth pain. Emergency consultations and pain relief treatments are typically more affordable than you might expect. Root canal therapy, extractions, and other treatments have different fee structures, which we'll discuss transparently before beginning any work. Many dental insurance plans cover emergency treatments, and we accept most major providers throughout the London area. We also offer flexible payment plans and financing options to make treatment accessible when you need it most. During your emergency visit, we'll provide a clear treatment plan with associated costs before proceeding. Remember, delaying treatment for severe tooth pain often leads to more complex and expensive procedures later. Investing in prompt treatment usually saves money in the long run.
Yes, untreated severe tooth pain can lead to serious health complications that extend far beyond your mouth. Dental infections can spread to surrounding tissues, causing facial swelling and cellulitis. In rare but serious cases, untreated dental abscesses can lead to sepsis, a life-threatening condition. The infection can also spread to your jaw bone, requiring more extensive treatment. Additionally, chronic dental pain affects your overall quality of life, disrupting sleep, eating, and daily activities. Some studies suggest links between untreated dental infections and heart problems, particularly in patients with existing cardiovascular conditions. At London Dental Specialists, we've seen how quickly dental emergencies can escalate. That's why we emphasise the importance of seeking immediate treatment. Our emergency protocols are designed to prevent these complications whilst providing rapid relief from your pain.
While waiting for your appointment, several steps can help manage severe tooth pain safely. Take over-the-counter pain relievers as directed on the packaging, alternating between ibuprofen and paracetamol if needed for better pain control. Apply a cold compress to the outside of your cheek for 15-20 minutes at a time to reduce swelling and numb the pain. Rinse gently with warm salt water to help reduce bacteria and inflammation. Avoid very hot or cold foods and drinks, as these can trigger more pain. Sleep with your head elevated to reduce blood flow to the affected area. Never place aspirin directly on the tooth or gums, as this can cause tissue damage. Avoid chewing on the affected side and stick to soft foods. If you develop facial swelling, fever, or difficulty swallowing, seek immediate medical attention. Contact our practice as soon as possible to arrange emergency treatment, as these home remedies provide only temporary relief.
Severe tooth pain requires immediate attention. Don't wait. At London Dental Specialists, we understand that dental emergencies can't wait for regular appointments, which is why we prioritise urgent cases requiring immediate care. You should seek emergency treatment if you're experiencing intense, throbbing pain that prevents sleep or normal activities. Sharp, shooting pain when biting down may indicate a serious issue. Swelling around the tooth or face suggests possible infection. Pain accompanied by fever could signal a spreading infection requiring urgent intervention. Persistent pain lasting more than 24 hours, especially if over-the-counter pain relief isn't helping, warrants immediate professional assessment. If you've suffered trauma to your mouth or have a knocked-out tooth, time is critical for successful treatment. Our experienced team, led by Dr. Ope Sodeinde, provides comprehensive emergency care using advanced diagnostic equipment to identify the source of your pain quickly. We offer effective pain management through local anaesthesia and sedation options for anxious patients. For dental emergencies, call us immediately on 020 7589 7792.
