What is considered a dental emergency?
At Medical Dental Spa West Hampstead, we provide fast, professional care for dental emergencies. Whether you are in severe pain, have suffered an injury, or are worried about swelling, our experienced team is here to help. These are general advices — always see a dentist or hospital in emergencies
Knocked-Out Tooth (Avulsed Tooth):
A knocked-out tooth is one of the most urgent dental emergencies.
What to do:
- Hold the tooth by the crown (never the root).
- Rinse gently with milk or saline – do not scrub.
- If not possible, keep the tooth in milk, saline, or inside your cheek (if safe).
- 👉 See an emergency dentist in London within 60 minutes.
Severe Toothache or Dental Pain:
Persistent toothache can signal infection or decay.
What to do:
- Use a cold compress to reduce discomfort.
- 👉 Book an emergency dental appointment in as soon as possible.
- âš If pain spreads with swelling or fever, go to A&E.
Facial Swelling or Spreading Dental Infection:
Facial swelling that affects swallowing, breathing, or opening your mouth is a serious medical emergency.
What to do:
- Do not attempt to drain the swelling.
- 👉 If bleeding does not stop, go to A&E immediately.
Uncontrolled Bleeding After Extraction or Injury:
Bleeding that continues despite firm pressure for more than 20 minutes requires urgent attention.
What to do:
- Sit upright, lean forward, bite down on a clean gauze or handkerchief.
- Avoid rinsing or spitting.
- 👉 If bleeding does not stop, go to A&E immediately.
Broken Tooth, Filling, or Crown:
If sharp edges are cutting your cheek or tongue, temporary measures can help.
What to do:
- Cover sharp edges with sugar-free chewing gum or dental wax.
- Keep any broken pieces safe.
- 👉 Arrange an urgent appointment with our emergency dentist.
Trauma to Teeth or Jaw:
A fractured jaw, loose teeth after an accident, or difficulty closing your mouth may require hospital treatment.
What to do:
- Support the jaw with a soft bandage or scarf.
- 👉 Go to A&E straight away.
Lost Filling, Crown, or Veneer (No Pain):
While not always urgent, this can become uncomfortable.
What to do:
- Use temporary dental cement from a pharmacy if available.
- 👉 Book a non-emergency dental visit at Medical Dental Spa.
- Bring the crown or filling to your appointment.
- 👉 See an emergency dentist in London within 60 minutes.
Wisdom Tooth Pain or Swelling:
Pain from wisdom teeth is common, especially if they are impacted or partially erupted. This can lead to infection (pericoronitis), swelling, or difficulty opening the mouth.
What to do:
- Rinse gently with warm salty water.
- Keep the area clean with careful brushing.
- Take suitable pain relief (paracetamol or ibuprofen).
- 👉 Book an emergency dentist appointment in West Hampstead if pain persists.
- âš Go to A&E immediately if swelling spreads to the face, neck, or affects breathing/swallowing.
