The price of your emergency consultation covers all x-rays and the issue of a prescription, if necessary. As a private practice, we do not issue NHS prescriptions but our private prescriptions can be taken to any local pharmacy for dispensing.
Wherever possible, we will always try to fully treat the problem but, on occasion, this may not be possible due to time constraints or because you want the treatment to be undertaken by your regular dentist. In such cases, we can provide a temporary solution which will be applied ‘as is’ without any preparation/drilling of the tooth:
- Crown recement
- Temporary filling
- Temporary crown
Other temporary repairs can also be undertaken and will be priced individually according to the extent of the work needed. You will be advised of the cost of any such work at the time of your emergency appointment and your agreement sought to proceed before the work commences. We will always try to fit emergencies in as quickly as possible. However, please be aware that, at busy times, you may have an extended wait or we may request that you contact NHS 111 (see below).
If you have a dental emergency outside our opening hours, then please phone NHS 111 or click on the button in the resources box.
