If you or a family member has toothache or an injury to your teeth or gums, get help as soon as possible.
You need urgent dental advice if you have:
- Facial swelling extending to eye, neck, or floor of mouth
- Bleeding following an extraction or due to trauma which does not stop after 20 mins of firm pressure with gauze
- Severely broken tooth/teeth due to accident
- Toothache that is preventing sleeping combined with swelling or fever, which is not manageable with painkillers
If you have any of these please call us and leave a message on 06 878 8171
You need to go to the A&E if you have:
- Facial swelling affecting your vision, breathing, or preventing mouth opening
- Trauma causing loss of consciousness, double vision, or vomiting
- Severe or continuous bleeding
Management at home
- For toothache pain, over the counter painkillers such as Paracetamol or Ibuprofen will help symptoms
- If you have extreme sensitivity to hot or cold, rub desensitizing toothpaste such as Sensodyne or Colgate Pro-Relief directly on the affected area and don’t rinse afterwards. Do this several times a day
- Wisdom tooth pain can be managed with regular mouthwashes using warm salt water or Savacol, combined with painkillers and thorough cleaning of the area
- If you have trouble swallowing or have swelling of your cheek you may need antibiotics. Please call us.
