We'll do everything we can to see you on the same day at either our Brookvale practice in Honiton or Merrifield practice in Sidmouth.

What counts as a dental emergency?
A dental emergency is any situation requiring immediate attention to relieve severe pain, stop bleeding, or save a tooth. If you're unsure whether your situation is urgent, it's always better to call us. Common dental emergencies we treat include:
- Dental abscess – swelling, severe pain, or infection
- Knocked-out tooth – requiring immediate attention for the best chance of saving it
- Broken or chipped tooth – especially if causing pain or sharp edges
- Lost filling or crown – leaving the tooth vulnerable and often painful
- Dental trauma – from accidents, falls, or sports injuries
- Severe toothache – persistent pain that won't respond to over-the-counter relief
- Bleeding that won't stop – following an injury or procedure

Getting the urgent care you need
Call us straight away
The moment you experience a dental emergency, get in touch with us. We'll prioritise your call and arrange the earliest possible appointment at our Honiton or Sidmouth practice.
Your emergency appointment
We'll carry out a thorough assessment, provide pain relief, and perform any immediate treatment needed to address the problem and make you comfortable.
Follow-up care
Depending on the nature of your emergency, we may schedule a follow-up appointment to complete treatment or monitor your recovery.
How much does an emergency dental appointment cost?
The cost of emergency treatment depends entirely on what's needed to address your situation. We'll always explain the treatment options and associated costs before proceeding.
If you subscribe to one of our membership plans, you’ll receive access to the Global Dental Scheme, which offers temporary emergency treatment when you are over 25 miles away from the practice.

Do I need an emergency dentist?
It's not always obvious whether something needs immediate attention or can wait for a routine appointment. If you're experiencing any of the following, don't hesitate to call us:
- Severe or persistent toothache
- Knocked-out or broken tooth
- Dental abscess or facial swelling
- Lost filling or crown causing pain
- Bleeding that won't stop
- Sharp edges or trauma
You don't need to be certain it's an emergency before calling. We'd much rather reassure you over the phone than have you suffer in discomfort. Our team is here to help with any dental concern.
