What is the Need for a 24 Hour Dentist in Sydney when you have Broken, Chipped or Cracked Tooth?
The need for a 24 hour dentist could occur at any hour of the day and the crack of dawn or late at night is no exception.

Normally a dental facility is closed at these hours, but an emergency dentist such as the one in Smile Concepts will always be available ...
... for patients all day, every day.

Typical emergency situations usually involve:

Emergency dental need due to a broken, chipped or cracked tooth

This needs to be treated straight away with antibiotics and pain relief as above.

The wisdom teeth have to be PLANNED TO BE REMOVED.

They are not like normal teeth and cannot be removed on the day that you have the infection.

Removal of wisdom teeth has to be planned.

Therefore be patient. After three days of antibiotics & painkillers, the pain will go away.

You need to see us to get your teeth planned to be removed by our specialists.

Emergency dental need due to severe infection

1. Take nurofen 400mgs every 4 hours for the first 2 days.

You also need antibiotics. If painin not relieved then change to 2 nurofen first, then 2 panadols after 2 hours and then 2 hours later 2 nurofen and repeat for next 48 hours.

Please call our after hours dentist for more advice.

2. You will need the tooth treated with root canal treatment or have to take the tooth out based on the severity of the infection.

Emergency dental need due to front tooth has come out after an accident

If it is your child and is less than 6 years of age, please go straight to either Westmead Children’s Hospital or Children’s Hospital in Randwick.

If above 6 years of age or an adult call our after hours dentist immediately.

We will attempt to save the tooth.

Missing Teeth
Recklessness may be fun, but if you get your teeth knocked out you may change your mind.

When a tooth falls out it can be reattached by an emergency dentist if you get to one soon enough.

Avoid making contact with the roots of the tooth and transport it in a glass of milk.

If severe damage has been done to the gums then it may be impossible, so dental implants would be an option if this were the case.

As mentioned above contact our emergency dentist in Sydney immediately in case of missing tooth.
