Common Dental Emergencies We Treat
Emergency dental problems can occur suddenly and often require prompt assessment. Our emergency dentist in Bromley regularly treats patients experiencing:
Severe Toothache:
Persistent or worsening tooth pain may indicate infection, nerve inflammation or deep decay that requires urgent assessment.
Dental Abscess or Swelling
Swelling in the gums, face or jaw may indicate a dental infection that requires urgent treatment to prevent it spreading.
Emergency Tooth Extraction
If a tooth is severely damaged or infected, an urgent tooth extraction may sometimes be necessary to relieve pain and prevent complications.
Broken or Chipped Teeth
Dental trauma can leave teeth painful, sharp or vulnerable to further damage and may require same-day repair.
Timely Emergency Dental Treatment in Bromley
Dental pain and emergencies often worsen when the underlying cause is not properly identified.
Our emergency dental appointments in Bromley focus on understanding what is happening, stabilising the issue and helping you make an informed decision about your treatment, rather than simply masking symptoms.
Prevent Further Damage: Timely emergency dental treatment can prevent problems from worsening and reduce the need for more extensive treatment later.
Addresses the Cause of Dental Pain: Pain relief alone often leads to repeat emergency appointments if the underlying problem is not properly assessed and resolved.
Protects Your Teeth for the Long Term: Our structured emergency dental approach helps preserve your natural teeth wherever possible.

What Our Patients Say About Shmile Dentist 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.
