What is considered a dental emergency?

According to NHS guidance, you should only attend A&E for the following dental emergencies:

  • Uncontrolled or heavy bleeding
  • Serious injuries to the face, mouth, or teeth
  • Severe or rapidly increasing swelling affecting the mouth, lips, throat, neck, or eyes


A&E departments provide 24-hour emergency care for these specific conditions.

At Battersea Dentist, we agree with the NHS definition of a dental emergency. However, we also understand that there are many situations where urgent dental care is needed to relieve pain or address functional or aesthetic concerns, including:

Emergency Dental Frequently Asked Questions

The cost of an emergency dental appointment is £64. At this appointment your emergency dentist will assess your dental issue and be able to provide you with a personalised treatment plan to detail your treatment options and costings. Depending upon the treatment you need this can sometimes be performed on the day of your emergency consultation, however you may require multiple visits. We will do everything we can to get you out of pain at your appointment.

This is influenced by several factors, including location, limited government funding, and high demand. Our dentists choose to work in a private setting, allowing them the time to focus on patient care rather than targets.

To ease dental discomfort, you may find relief from warm salt water rinses, using a cold compress externally, and taking over-the-counter pain medication. Please ensure you do not exceed the stated dose and seek advice from a pharmacist if you have any concerns.
