Types of Dental Emergencies We Treat in Our Castle Hill Clinic
- Cracks can cause sharp pain when chewing or sensitivity to temperature. Some minor cracks can be repaired with fillings or bonding, while larger ones often require crowns to strengthen the tooth. If the nerve is affected, root canal therapy may be required. Early attention prevents the crack from worsening.
- A lost filling can leave the tooth exposed and sensitive to hot, cold, or sweet foods. The tooth may also trap food, increasing the risk of decay. We provide prompt replacement fillings to protect the tooth and restore function. Temporary solutions may be used until a permanent filling is placed.
- Injuries from accidents or sport may cause teeth to chip, loosen, or be knocked out completely. A quick response is essential. We stabilise damaged teeth with splints where possible, repair fractures, and, if necessary, refer for further medical assessment. Acting quickly improves the outcome.
- Partially erupted or impacted wisdom teeth can cause gum pain, swelling, and infection. This may make it difficult to eat or open the mouth. Treatment options include cleaning, antibiotics, or extraction if the tooth is unlikely to erupt properly. X-rays are used to assess the position of the tooth.
- Bleeding gums may result from gum disease, trauma, or irritation. While occasional bleeding can be common, persistent or heavy bleeding requires professional assessment. Treatment may include a dental clean, home care advice, and further periodontal therapy if needed. At our Castle Hill clinic, we prioritise emergency appointments to ensure urgent issues are managed without delay.

What to do if you have a Dental Emergency?
Cracked tooth
Avoid chewing on the cracked tooth and stick to soft foods until you can see a dentist. Rinse your mouth gently with warm water to keep the area clean. Apply a cold compress if there is swelling. Take over-the-counter pain relief if suitable. Arrange an urgent dental visit to prevent further damage.
Lost filling
Avoid hard or sticky foods that may worsen sensitivity. Rinse after meals to reduce food trapping. Some pharmacies sell temporary filling kits which may provide short-term relief, but this is not a substitute for treatment. Book a dental appointment as soon as possible to replace the filling.
Wisdom tooth pain or swelling
Apply a cold compress to reduce swelling and discomfort. Eat soft foods and avoid chewing on the sore side. Over-the-counter medication may help control pain. Do not attempt to force the tooth to erupt. A dentist will examine the area and may recommend cleaning, antibiotics, or extraction.
Bleeding gums
Rinse gently with warm salty water to soothe irritated gums. Brush carefully with a soft toothbrush and avoid aggressive flossing. Persistent bleeding should not be ignored, as it may be a sign of gum disease. Book an appointment promptly so your dentist can check and advise on treatment.
Frequently Asked Questions
- Smoothing may reduce irritation from a rough edge, but it does not protect the tooth from further decay or fracture. Most broken fillings require proper replacement to restore the seal and prevent worsening damage. A dentist will examine the tooth and recommend the safest treatment option.
- Root canal treatment usually takes two to four visits depending on the complexity of the tooth. Each appointment may last between 30 and 60 minutes. The exact number of visits can only be determined after your dentist has examined the tooth and assessed its condition.
- While antibiotics may reduce swelling, they do not remove the source of infection. Unless the tooth is treated with a filling, root canal, or extraction, the infection is likely to return. A dentist must carry out a full assessment to provide a permanent solution.
- Yes, some sensitivity is common after tartar is removed because the newly exposed surfaces may feel tender. This usually settles within a few days or weeks. Using a sensitive toothpaste and avoiding very cold foods can help during this period. If sensitivity persists, see your dentist for further advice.
- Cracks can cause sharp pain when chewing or sensitivity to temperature. Some minor cracks can be repaired with fillings or bonding, while larger ones often require crowns to strengthen the tooth. If the nerve is affected, root canal therapy may be required. Early attention prevents the crack from worsening.
