How do I know if I need an emergency dental appointment?
Emergency dental appointments are reserved for non-life-threatening issues such as a chipped or broken tooth, a knocked out tooth, sudden and severe pain or swelling in your mouth, jaw, gums or teeth, or any other urgent dental problem. If you are experiencing any of these issues, call us straight away and we will help you.
If you are experiencing heavy bleeding or you think you may have broken a bone, you should go to your nearest hospital emergency department.
How long will I have to wait to see an emergency dentist?
At Great White Smiles, we always make time for emergencies. We set aside time for emergency dental appointments every day so you can get the urgent care you need, when you need it. Simply give us a call and tell us what has happened. We’ll let you know when to come in and what to do until your appointment.
What if I can’t call you because my dental injury makes it too hard to speak?
If you’re in too much pain to speak and don’t have someone else to call us on your behalf, you can make your emergency dental appointment online using our easy booking system. If you think you might have a broken jaw, please go straight to the emergency room at your nearest hospital.
How much does emergency dental treatment cost?
Your emergency dental appointment will cost the same as a standard consultation at $60. However, if you require more complex treatment to fix your issue, such as a composite filling or dental crown, it may cost more. We understand dental emergencies are stressful enough without financial stress on top, so we’ll always be completely upfront with you about your treatment options and the fees involved. You’ve had enough surprises for one day!
