At Dental on Cambridge we have emergency appointments available on the day for tooth aches, because these can be very serious. Additionally, if your child has a tooth ache or has had a fall, we will see them immediately as our first priority. Of course, a tooth ache doesn’t always occur during business hours, so please call our practice on (07) 3348 6661 and leave a message with your name and contact details and we will endeavour to get back to you as soon as possible. Alternatively, you can book online, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
Until we can see you it’s best to try to avoid aggravating the pain, but keep the area as clean as possible. If the pain feels gum related you could also rinse with warm salty water to help keep the area clean and assist with soothing of tissue irritation. If you have severe swelling causing asymmetry of the face, and are unable to see us promptly, please attend the hospital emergency department.
