Dental Pain or a Worsening Tooth Problem?
Many patients contact us when pain worsens, a tooth breaks, or dental problems have been left for some time.
You are not alone, and you won’t be judged. Our emergency appointments are designed to understand what’s happening, stabilise the issue, and help you regain control.
Toothache Emergency
Including persistent toothaches, which could indicate an underlying infection or a damaged tooth or root canal issues.
Lost Filling or Crown
A lost filling or crown can be painful and expose your tooth to further damage. We can replace them promptly.
Broken or Chipped Teeth
If you have had a dental trauma or an injury we have same day dental appointments and can help to restore your tooth, normally on the same day.
Dental Swelling and Infections
Dental infections can develop rapidly and often result in noticeable dental swelling. If you’re experiencing swelling in the face or gums, redness, pain, or a fever, these could be signs of a dental infection or abscess that requires immediate attention.
Timely Emergency Dental Treatment in Bromley

What You Can Do For a Toothache
Theses steps may offer temporary pain relief, but they do not address the cause of dental pain. Ongoing or severe toothache should always be assessed by a dentist.
Take pain relievers: You can try over-the-counter painkillers such as paracetamol or ibuprofen. If you’re under 16, do not take aspirin. If you’re taking ibuprofen, be sure to eat something first.
Use numbing gel: You can buy a numbing gel at the pharmacy to help ease the pain.
Rinse your mouth: Rinse with warm salty water.
Apply a cold compress: If your toothache is from an injury, you can place a cold pack on the outside of your cheek.
If dental pain persists or worsens, a proper dental assessment is the safest next step.

Root canal treatment (endodontic treatment), is used to treat tooth pulp infections or damage. The pulp, containing nerves, blood vessels, and tissue, can become compromised due to decay, cracks, or previous dental procedures. During the procedure, the infected or damaged pulp is carefully removed under local anaesthesia. This is done through an access point created in the tooth to reach the pulp chamber and root canals.
Yes in some instance a broken or chipped tooth can be repaired using a white composite filling. The composite is sculpted and polished to restore the tooth’s natural shape and strength, blending seamlessly with your existing tooth.
