Emergency Dental Care Corby

We provide emergency dental treatments. We understand dental problems can occur at the most inconvenient times and can be very distressing.

If you are in urgent need for dental care then please call us and we may be able to help, sometimes on the same day. We are happy to see guests who are not registered with us.

Patients who are a member of our Dental Plans.

We will always prioritise our members for urgent appointments.

If you are a member and in need of urgent care outside of our opening hours, or away from the practice, then you will be able to contact The Global Dental Scheme. They will be able to assist you for dental care.

To help you with common issues and symptoms:

• For a broken tooth or lost filling – Keep the area clean and contact us as soon as possible.
• For a toothache – Carefully clean the area around the affected tooth. Rinse your mouth out with warm saltwater. If you experience any swelling, apply a cold compress to the area on your face and contact us as soon as possible. Use over-the-counter medications for temporary relief. If the swelling increases and affects your eyesight or leads to difficulty swallowing or breathing, then please contact your local hospital A&E department immediately.
• If you lose a tooth – Pick up the tooth by the crown (top) not the root (bottom). If you can put it back in its socket, do so and try to keep it in place with a piece of cloth or gauze. If you can’t then place some clean gauze or a towel over the socket and apply firm pressure to stop any bleeding. Keep the area clean by doing regular mouth rinses after 24 hours. Place the tooth in cold milk and bring it to your emergency appointment.
• If you break your braces – If you can easily remove the broken piece, do so. If you can’t, or it causes discomfort when you try, cover the protruding piece with wax, gauze or cotton to protect the insides of your cheeks, gum and tongue.
• If you lose a crown/ veneer – Please keep it safe and bring it to your emergency appointment to see if it can be replaced.
• If you experience pain after treatment – Sometimes treatment can irritate a tooth or its adjacent area. Do not be alarmed and this should naturally settle. Pain killers can be taken if necessary. If it is still uncomfortable after a week then please contact us.
