Guides and cost comparisons
Looking outside Kensington and Chelsea?
Dental emergencies include severe toothache, knocked-out or broken teeth, abscesses (facial swelling), uncontrolled bleeding after extraction, and damage to dental work. If swelling affects your breathing or you have a high fever, go to A&E immediately.
For a knocked-out tooth, keep it moist in milk and see a dentist within 30 minutes. For severe pain, take over-the-counter painkillers (ibuprofen is usually most effective). For swelling, apply a cold compress to the outside of your cheek. Avoid aspirin directly on gums.
NHS emergency dental care costs £26.80 (Band 1). Access is through NHS 111 or walk-in dental emergency departments. Private emergency appointments typically cost £50–£150 for assessment, with treatment costs additional. Private practices often offer same-day availability.
Regular dental check-ups help identify problems before they become emergencies. Wear a mouthguard for contact sports. Address tooth sensitivity or minor pain early — most emergencies develop from untreated issues. Keep your dentist's emergency contact details saved in your phone.
NHS dental access is very limited in this borough. Most practices are entirely private, with premium pricing reflecting the area. Chelsea and Westminster Hospital provides limited NHS dental services.
