Dental emergencies can be sudden, painful, and incredibly stressful. Whether it’s a cracked tooth during lunch, a severe toothache at midnight, or a knocked-out tooth on the weekend — acting quickly can help save your smile.

At Marsh Lane Dental in Stanmore, we specialize in same-day emergency dental care for patients from Harrow, Edgware, Mill Hill, and surrounding areas. Here’s everything you need to know if you're facing a dental emergency — and how we can help.

🦷 What Counts as a Dental Emergency?

Many people aren't sure what qualifies as a dental emergency. If you’re asking “Should I call my dentist now or wait?”— it’s always safer to call.

Common dental emergencies we treat at Marsh Lane Dental:

  • Severe toothache or facial     swelling
  • Broken, chipped, or cracked tooth
  • Knocked-out tooth (sports injury,     accident, etc.)
  • Lost filling or crown
  • Bleeding from the gums or mouth
  • Signs of infection like pus,     swelling, or fever

If you’re in pain, discomfort, or some thing just feels “off” — it’s a reason to contact us.

🛑 What Should I Do Before I See an Emergency Dentist?

Until you arrive at our clinic in Stanmore, here are some first-aid tips to protect your oral health:

➤ For a Knocked-Out Tooth

  • Handle the tooth by the crown (not the root).
  • Gently rinse it with milk or saliva — don’t scrub.
  • Try placing it back into the socket, or store it in milk.
  • Get to us within 30–60 minutes for     the best chance of saving the tooth.

➤ For Toothache or Swelling

  • Rinse your mouth with warm salt water.
  • Take paracetamol or ibuprofen (avoid aspirin for kids).
  • Use a cold compress to reduce swelling.
  • Call us as soon as possible — it may be an abscess or     infection.

➤ For a Chipped or Broken Tooth

  • Rinse your mouth and collect any broken pieces.
  • Avoid chewing on that side.
  • Apply a cold compress to manage any swelling.

➤ For Lost Fillings or Crowns

  • Avoid chewing on the affected tooth.
  • Keep the crown safe if it’s come out.
  • Contact us for prompt repair or replacement.
