Overview

An emergency appointment at Manningtree Dental and implant Centre is a service designed to provide immediate care if you are experiencing severe dental issues that require urgent attention. These appointments are prioritised to address acute pain, trauma, or serious dental problems that cannot wait for a regular scheduled visit.

What Does An Emergency Appointment Address?

Emergency dental appointments are crucial for several reasons. They provide rapid relief from severe pain caused by issues such as toothaches, infections, or injuries. Prompt treatment can prevent the condition from worsening, potentially saving the tooth and avoiding more complex procedures. Immediate care can address dental trauma, such as knocked-out or broken teeth, which may need urgent intervention to ensure the best possible outcome.

The Treatment Process

The process for an emergency appointment typically involves the following steps:

Contact and Scheduling

Call Manningtree Dental and Implant Centre as soon as you experience a dental emergency. Our team will prioritise your case and schedule an immediate appointment.

Evaluation and Diagnosis

Upon arrival, the dentist will perform a thorough examination to assess the issue. This may include taking X-rays to get a clear understanding of the problem.

Immediate Treatment

Depending on the diagnosis, the dentist will provide the necessary treatment to address the issue. This could include pain management, treating infections, performing extractions, or repairing damaged teeth.

Treatment Aftercare

After the emergency treatment, it’s important to follow the dentist’s aftercare instructions to ensure proper healing and prevent further issues. This may involve taking prescribed medications, avoiding certain foods, and maintaining good oral hygiene. Follow-up appointments may be scheduled to monitor recovery and complete any additional necessary treatments.

Treatment Fees

We believe in clear and upfront pricing for all our services. Our detailed price list is available to help you understand the costs associated with each treatment. We strive to ensure there are no hidden fees, providing a transparent overview so you can make informed decisions about your care. The fee list is a guide; and will be determined by the clinician in charge of your oral care or facial aesthetics.

FAQs

What qualifies as a dental emergency?

Dental emergencies include severe toothaches, knocked-out or broken teeth, dental infections, abscesses, and injuries to the mouth. If you are experiencing significant pain, swelling, or bleeding, it’s important to seek immediate dental care.

How quickly can I get an emergency appointment?

Manningtree Dental and implant Centre prioritises emergency cases and will schedule you as soon as possible, often the same day. Contact us immediately to explain your situation, and we will arrange prompt care.

What should I do if I knock out a tooth?

If you knock out a tooth, try to handle it by the crown (top part) without touching the root. Rinse it gently with water if dirty, and try to place it back in its socket if possible. If not, keep it moist in milk or a saline solution and see the dentist immediately.

What can I expect during an emergency appointment?

During an emergency appointment, the dentist will perform a thorough examination and may take X-rays to diagnose the issue. Immediate treatment will be provided to alleviate pain and address the problem. Further appointments may be scheduled for follow-up care.
