Dental emergencies can arise at any time of the day or night, and the quicker you contact the practice the sooner we can see you and get you out of pain. Whether you are a regular patient or a visitor to Bournemouth, we can provide emergency dental treatment.

What constitutes a dental emergency?

These are just some of the reasons you may need to see an emergency dentist:

Lost teeth

Accidents and injuries that involve a blow to the face or mouth often result in damage to the teeth. If your tooth is knocked out, your dentist may be able to reimplant it in the socket. If you still have the tooth, be sure to pick it up by the crown and avoid touching the root. You can clean it under cold water and put it in a clean container, covered in your own saliva or milk. Bring it with you to our practice. If we cannot reimplant it, your clinician will discuss tooth replacement options.

Broken teeth

Teeth are often broken in accidents and sporting injuries. Even if a tooth is only slightly chipped or cracked, infection may be able to enter the root canal system, so you should see an emergency dentist. At our Bournemouth practice we may be able to restore your tooth using composite bonding material (the same material used for white fillings), crowns or veneers.

Toothache

Toothache is a sign something is wrong and can quickly become unbearable. Come into our Bournemouth practice as soon as possible and we will get you out of pain.
