Emergency Dentist Penarth

Taking the correct steps immediately can make a big difference:

• For a Knocked-Out Tooth: Try to handle the tooth only by the crown (the chewing surface). If possible, gently re-insert it into the socket, or keep it in a container of milk on your way to the practice.

• For Pain/Swelling: Apply a cold compress or ice pack to the outside of your cheek to reduce swelling. Take your normal pain relief medication, but never apply aspirin directly to the gums.

• For Broken Teeth: Rinse your mouth with warm water to clean the area and cover any sharp edges with orthodontic wax or sugar-free chewing gum to protect your tongue and cheek.

We aim to make emergency dental care as straightforward as possible.

• Emergency Assessment Fee: The cost for your initial emergency appointment (assessment and diagnosis) is £75. This fee secures your urgent appointment and allows our team to diagnose the problem and provide immediate advice or temporary relief.

• Active Treatment: Following the diagnosis, if active treatment is required (such as a filling, extraction, or root canal), a separate fee will apply. Our team will provide you with a full, transparent quotation for any necessary treatment before proceeding, so there are no surprises.

We also offer various payment options to help you manage the cost of unexpected urgent care.
