Dental emergency

A dental emergency is any issue causing severe pain, swelling, bleeding, or damage to your teeth or gums that cannot wait for a routine appointment.

Examples include severe toothache, knocked-out teeth, broken or chipped teeth, abscesses, or injuries from accidents.

If you’re unsure, call our practice for an emergency appointment in Epsom and we’ll advise you.

Pick the tooth up carefully by the crown (not the root), rinse it gently with water if dirty, and try to place it back in the socket. If that’s not possible, keep it in milk or saliva and bring it to your appointment.

Call our emergency dental team in Epsom immediately — the sooner we see you, the better the chance of saving the tooth.

Yes. We accept most major dental insurance providers for emergency dental care.

Coverage depends on your plan and the type of treatment required, but our team can provide receipts and documentation for reimbursement. If you’re unsure about your cover, give us a call before your appointment and we’ll guide you.

For patients without insurance, we also offer transparent pricing and flexible payment options at our Epsom practice.

If you experience a dental emergency outside our opening hours, call our practice number for guidance.

We provide advice and, if necessary, can arrange urgent treatment. For severe trauma or uncontrolled bleeding, go straight to A&E.
