If you are in pain and need emergency dental treatment, please call our team on (09) 837 2598 and book an appointment.

Dental problems don’t always arrive with a warning. Whether you’re in pain, have a cracked tooth, or something just doesn’t feel right, we’re here to help, fast.

When should you book an emergency dental appointment?

• If you’re in pain or discomfort.
  
• If you’ve lost a filling, crown or tooth.
  
• If you’ve experienced trauma to the mouth or jaw.
  
• If your gums are swollen or bleeding.
  
• If your tooth is chipped, cracked, or broken.
  

Even if it doesn’t hurt, a broken filling or tooth still needs urgent care to prevent infection or further damage.

For more serious injuries like a broken jaw or facial lacerations, please go to your nearest hospital or Emergency Department.

Still not sure if it’s an emergency?

• Call our friendly team who will talk through your symptoms and provide advice on what steps to take.
  
• We’ll help you decide whether you need to be seen urgently.
  
• We’re open Saturday mornings to make it even easier to book an emergency appointment.
  

How to prevent common dental emergencies:

• Wear a mouthguard when playing contact sports like rugby.
  
• Avoid biting directly into hard foods (like toffee, nuts or hard candy).
  
• Cut sticky foods into pieces, instead of tearing them with your teeth.
  
• Keep up with regular dental check-ups to maintain healthy teeth.
  

What to expect during your emergency visit:

• A same-day appointment where possible, with one of our caring, friendly dental experts.
  
• Fast pain relief and clear treatment advice.
  
• Gentle, professional care, with sedation options if you need them.
  
• A follow- up care plan to help you recover as quickly as possible.
