When to come in
Do you really need to see an emergency dentist?
If you are bleeding or holding on to a loose tooth, there’s no time to waste. Call us on 01202 160 522 to get seen quickly.
Tooth fell out
If you are literally holding on to a bloody tooth, see a dentist quickly to save the tooth.
Visibly broken tooth
If you can see a crack or a chip on your tooth, seek dental care even if you don’t feel much pain. The crack could get infected otherwise.
Swelling above the neck
Dental pain accompanied by mouth, jaw or other facial swelling needs medical attention without delay.
Non-stop bleeding
It’s best not to ignore bleeding in the mouth. Don’t wait to address bleeding from tooth or gum injuries.
Back teeth pain
Pain in the back part of your jaw could mean a wisdom tooth problem or an abscess. The longer you wait, the more painful and infected it would get.

Toothache vs dental abscess vs knocked-out tooth: How urgent is it?
Our dentists explain how the three most common dental emergencies compare and whether it’s something that can really wait until the morning.
| Toothache | Dental Abscess | Knocked-Out Tooth | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Signs | Aching or throbbing, often worsens at night | Painful swelling on the gum, maybe bad taste | Tooth completely out of the socket |
| Urgency | Same day if painkillers aren't working | Same day as it won't clear on its own | Within the hour for the best chance of saving it |
| What We Do | Find the cause, then treat the tooth or nerve | Drain the infection and treat the source | Clean and reposition the tooth, then splint it |
| If Untreated | Pain worsens and decay spreads deeper | Infection can spread to the face or beyond | The tooth is unlikely to be saved |

Treatment questions
Questions patients ask emergency dental care in Bournemouth
We believe in transparent pricing. Whatever treatment you are considering, your full cost is confirmed upfront before you commit to anything.
Yes, we do not charge extra for emergency treatments carried out during normal working hours in Bournemouth. Your emergency booking will be £60, and the costs of any treatments carried out during the appointment will be clearly explained in full beforehand.
Bring any previous dental records, a list of medications, and your ID or insurance card. This helps the dentist provide accurate and effective treatment.
Yes, our emergency dentists in Bournemouth accept walk-ins. However, it’s recommended to call ahead if possible so the team can prepare for your visit and reduce waiting times.
We offer rapid access to emergency appointments and have experienced, highly qualified dentists equipped with advanced diagnostic technology. We are pioneers in patient-centred care, and we also accommodate patients with dental anxiety.
While waiting for your appointment, do these to relieve some pain and facilitate treatment: Rinse your mouth with warm water (ideally warm salt water); for facial swelling, apply a cold compress; if you experience tooth pain or sensitivity, avoid chewing on the affected side; keep a knocked-out tooth moist in milk or saliva; if possible, avoid taking painkillers without medical advice. These steps can provide temporary relief, but professional care is essential to resolve the issue.
We offer the best quality treatments in Dorset that everyone can afford. Our clinicians are experienced and highly qualified to deliver impressive results.
