If you do have a tooth related trauma, you may want to follow these emergency tips while you wait for our expert attention.
Knocked out tooth
View our treatments for knocked out teeth
Chipped tooth
Rinse your mouth with water and stem any bleeding by applying a piece of gauze. A cold compress can help reduce swelling.
Lost filling or crown
If you’ve lost a filling, a simple temporary remedy is to stick a piece of sugar-free chewing gum in the hole.
A lost crown can be put back in place and secured with an emergency dental cement to adhesive, but please DO NOT use super-glue!
Abscesses
Rinse your mouth with warm salty water and use a cold compress if you have any swelling.
Take over-the-counter pain relief, such as ibuprofen and paracetamol to make yourself more comfortable (providing you are not allergic to these drugs).
