Emergency Dental Appointments in London
If you have a severe dental emergency which requires immediate care them please visit your local accident and emergency at the nearest hospital to you which if you live in Euston is UCLH, you can visit their website here.
If your dental emergency is not life-threatening and can wait until you see a dentist then we would be happy to see you at The Dental Centre London. We routinely schedule places in the diary each day for walk in dental emergencies with our emergency dentist.
Emergency dentist number
The number to call for our dental surgery emergency dentist is (020) 7679 7186.
Emergency dental appointments
Whilst we do offer a drop-in emergency service it is always preferable if we have a specific appointment book for you. If you can cope with the situation for a while we would prefer that you call us on the number above to book an appointment. This way we can be sure that we have exactly the right amount of time to see you and get you out of pain.
First aid for dental emergencies
Toothache
The first thing to do is to clean the area thoroughly and floss between the teeth to remove any trapped food. You can then wash your mouth thoroughly with warm salted water and call the emergency dentist as soon as possible to make an appointment.
Knocked out teeth (avulsed)
The first thing you need to do is to remain calm and deal with the situation. We recommend that you always handle the tooth by the crown, or the top part that is usually visible. The roots are rather delicate and so it is preferred that you do not touch these if at all possible. Another thing to bear in mind is that the roots can easily be damaged if you try to clean the tooth, so if the tooth has come out completely simply pick it up place it in a sterilised pack or carton of milk and then come to see the emergency dentist.
If you are absolutely sure about the way the tooth fits back into the socket then you can gently reinsert it, however it is possible to do more damage so it’s best not to reinsert tooth unless you are absolutely sure and confident to do so.
If this is outside of surgery hours then the best thing to do would be to go to your local accident and emergency hospital.
Teeth that have broken
Generally speaking this would not be considered a dental emergency unless the tooth itself is bleeding. This would indicate that the pulp chamber has become exposed, this certainly is a dental emergency. If a small amount of tooth has chipped off and there is no pain and no bleeding then it will normally be okay to wait until the next day for you come to see us. Typically we can repair the tooth and build it back up to its original shape using instant dental veneers or direct tooth bonding.
Severe dental trauma
This could include things like suspected broken jaw and multiple avulsed teeth. This would always be considered an extreme dental emergency and you should go to visit your local Hospital in Euston, London as soon as possible.

While tooth grinding disappears typically as soon as the stressful conditions are over, some people continue to grind their teeth throughout the day – even during their sleep. ![]()

What makes the grinding more dangerous is that many people are not even aware of this habit, and they only come to know from their partners or loved ones.![]()

This practice has the BEST customer service ever you could get in UK not only medical industry but also entire... industry.
.
I am a PhD student at UCL. Firstly, I found the pracrice at UCL website and they take care of UCL students. Thus, I went to the practice because of terrifying toothache from wisdom tooth. I was panicked from upcoming intense pain but the receptionist tried to make me calm down and tried me to go throw emergency session ASAP on the day I just registered. Even the doctor was very calm and friendly. I could see he tried to arrange the next session ASAP to get rid of the horrifying pain.
.
They are 100/100 professional with their title.
.
I STRONGLY recommend this practice.
.
Additionally they have [specialist orthodontist].read more

I’ve been coming to Dr Jones for about ten years now and I’ve always been impressed by her attention to detail. I’m a... fairly nervous patient and she’s done some fairly complex work on me with utterly no pain and to a really high standard.
I had grinding pain for a number of years and she’s tailored a splint for me to successfully get rid of it. I briefly tried a new dentist when I moved house, but it just wasn’t the same and have since returned to her and now make the long commute to see her because of the level of care she provides. Highly recommend!read more

Been to my second appointment at dental smiles had my impressions done it was a breeze, I have a diabolical gagging... reflex so I did what Dr Patel asked me to do and I went through it without any gagging whatsoever, in past times at other dentists it was always a rush to get you in and out with no consideration for the patients but at dental smiles what they have to do you comes second the nerves disappear after a reassuring chat and gentle approach they go through everything without any problems, which is why this is the dental practice to head for when you have any problems what so ever, don't be afraid of this practice, they are out of this world, ggggreat workread more

Told I needed a crown for a simple filling which fell out. Decided to trust her word and get it done. When the... temporary filling fell out, she was unavailable for a week, while I called every day, walking around with a hole in my mouth. Turns out she actually was in the practice, but was too keen to leave every day at 5pm to provide basic care to her customers.
Also told I needed a filling on another tooth for a superficial spot of decay. Saw another dentist about this who advised this is an out of date practice - superficial decay can recover and is best left to heal until it becomes a problem. Now I suspect the crown was also overkill to hand out a larger bill.
I was also advised to get a splint, which would cost £900 - the "Rolls Royce" of splints (how very professional...). Another dentist advised that this can be done for £450. Not the same "Rolls Royce" - but they at least provide a more affordable option.
Takes ages to get appointments - don't expect anything for 2 weeks. Receptionist seems to think she runs the practice.
Bottom line is this place is run as a business, not a health care facility. Private patients are subsidising care for students, but don't expect any better service for your hard earned money - you're just a number in their books, and they're going to try making that number as large as possible.read more

I would recommend to any London based students!read more

Good price and friendly, but I was told I need a filling however another dentist (who family members have used and... trusted for years) assured me that I don’t. I got the impression that they were more interested in me spending money than the health of my teeth. The dentist also recommended I pay something like £50 to attend a session on brushing. Overall not great.read more

Carla and her team have looked after my teeth for 5 years now and I have always received excellent service even though... I can be an awkward patient particularly with taking impressions. Under her care I have become a less nervous dental patient. Gemma the hygienist also performs wonders to my teeth and in a very professional manner. The surgery has ultra modern equipment, with excellent reception staff who are always helpful. I highly recommend the practice.read more
