When to call about a dental emergency

Contact a dentist promptly for severe or worsening toothache, swelling, a knocked-out or broken tooth, a lost crown or filling, or bleeding after a mouth injury. Tell the team when it started, what happened, and whether the patient is a child. We can explain the earliest available appointment.

• Toothache or dental pain
• Gum infection or swelling
• Broken tooth
• Dental abscess
• Wisdom tooth concerns
• Broken denture

What to do before your appointment

Toothache or swelling: Gently rinse your mouth and use a cold compress on the outside of your cheek. If you consider pain relief, follow the label or your health professional’s advice for your own conditions and medicines. Do not put aspirin against the gum. Call for dental assessment.

Knocked-out permanent tooth: Handle the tooth by the crown, not the root. If dirty, gently rinse it in milk or saline. If possible, gently place it back in its socket only if the person is conscious; otherwise keep it moist in milk or saliva and seek urgent dental care. Do not store it in water.

Knocked-out baby tooth: Do not put it back in the socket. Contact a dentist urgently to check for other injuries.

Broken tooth or lost restoration: Keep any tooth fragment in milk or saline and bring it to the appointment. Avoid chewing on the affected side. A dentist can assess the damage and explain treatment options.

Bleeding or soft-tissue injury: Apply firm pressure with clean gauze or cloth. If bleeding does not settle, seek urgent medical care. For breathing or swallowing difficulty, rapidly spreading swelling or another life-threatening emergency, call 000.
