Emergency dentist FAQs
Can I see an emergency dentist in Portsmouth today?
We offer same day emergency appointments where possible at our Drayton practice. Call 02392 380822 as early as you can. We prioritise patients in pain and will always aim to offer the earliest available appointment.
Do I need to be registered to be seen?
No. We welcome both registered and non registered patients for emergency dental appointments, including visitors to the Portsmouth area.
How much does an emergency dental appointment cost?
An emergency exam for new patients is £134. The cost of any treatment depends on the problem and what is needed, and you can see our prices on the fees page.
We will always explain any costs clearly before starting treatment.
What counts as a dental emergency?
Severe or lasting toothache, facial or gum swelling, a broken or knocked out tooth, a lost filling or crown, and bleeding after an extraction that will not stop are all reasons to call us. If you are unsure, ring 02392 380822 and our team will advise you.
Can you treat the problem on the same day?
We aim to provide immediate relief and may begin treatment during your emergency appointment. Some treatments may need a follow up visit depending on how complex they are.
What will happen at an emergency dental appointment?
During your appointment, the dentist will:
- Examine the problem
- Identify the cause
- Relieve pain where possible
- Explain your options
The priority is to get you comfortable and stabilise the issue.
What should I do if a tooth is knocked out?
Hold the tooth by the crown (the white part), not the root. If it is an adult tooth and it is clean, try to place it gently back in the socket and bite on a clean cloth. If that is not possible, keep it in milk. Then call us straight away on 02392 380822, as acting quickly gives the best chance of saving the tooth. Do not try to put a baby tooth back in.
Can a tooth infection go away on its own?
No, a dental infection will not go away without treatment. While symptoms may temporarily improve, the infection will remain. Our dentists can give you full detailed advice during your appointment.
Why is my tooth pain worse at night?
Tooth pain can feel worse at night because lying down increases blood flow to the head, which can increase pressure in the affected tooth. There are also fewer distractions, making the pain feel more intense. If toothache is keeping you awake, call us in the morning.
What if I need an emergency dentist out of hours?
We are open Monday to Friday, 8:00am to 5:30pm. Outside these hours, ring the usual practice number on 02392 380822 and the recorded message will advise you how to contact the Envisage Dental team. You can also send us the form on this page and we will get in touch as soon as possible, or contact NHS 111 for urgent advice.
