Advice for common dental emergencies in Mayfair
A knocked-out tooth
A knocked-out-tooth is very traumatic. If you have sustained any injuries to your face or body during the incident, you should visit A&E. You or a friend should call the emergency dentist as soon as possible as this type of dental emergency is time sensitive in saving the tooth.
Handle the knocked-out tooth by the crown only, never by the roots. Do not wash or over handle the tooth. You should store it in your mouth or a pot of cold milk until you get to see the emergency dentist.
Dental abscess
A dental abscess is caused by an infection in your tooth. You may experience pain, swelling or notice inflammation. You should book to see the emergency dentist. Take paracetamol for any pain and try rinsing your mouth in warm salty water. The emergency dentist will assess your tooth, eradicate pain and may book you in for root canal treatment.
A broken crown
If a dental crown breaks, take paracetamol for any pain and rinse your mouth in warm salty water to keep the area clean and free from infection. Avoid chewing on this side of your mouth. You should eat soft foods and avoid hot and sugary drinks whilst you wait to see the emergency dentist.
If you have them, take the broken pieces of the dental crown with you to see the emergency dentist. They may be able to repair your existing crown, or you may need a new one.
What happens at an emergency dental appointment in Mayfair?
We will thoroughly assess your mouth, teeth and gums to check for damage. We may use an x-ray to help give us a better understanding.
Our main priority will be to relieve you of any pain that you are experiencing, and we may use a local anaesthetic or medication to do this.
The emergency dental treatment will depend on the nature of the problem. We will either carry out an urgent procedure on the day, or we will perform temporary treatment such as a repair, with a follow up appointment to complete the treatment at a later date.
