Emergency Dental Care

Our highly skilled dentist is readily available to assist you in the case of an emergency.

Dental emergencies can be quite alarming and typically happen without any warning, at the worst possible time. As a patient-centric practise, we do our best to take on emergency cases in a timely manner.

Ignoring a dental emergency can increase the need for more extensive treatment later down the line. Whether you have a severe toothache, a cracked tooth, or require a tooth extraction, we are ready to assist you.

Our aim is to restore function to minimise the risk of permanent damage. In the event of an emergency, we do our best to see the patients as fast as possible. Preferential appointments during our operating hours will be given to emergency cases.

During a dental emergency, we do our best to assist you effectively and quickly in a comfortable and safe environment. We understand that dental anxiety is a big concern for many patients, especially during emergencies. To ensure your comfort during the procedure, we offer gentle service in a relaxing environment.
