Where is the nearest emergency dental service in Wandsworth?

For life-threatening dental emergencies (heavy bleeding, facial swelling affecting breathing), go directly to St George's Hospital A&E in Tooting (SW17). For urgent dental pain, contact NHS 111 for an out-of-hours appointment, or call private emergency practices near Clapham Junction or Putney. Several practices on Lavender Hill and Upper Tooting Road keep same-day emergency slots available on weekdays.

Does St George's Hospital handle dental emergencies?

St George's Hospital in Tooting has an oral and maxillofacial surgery department that treats serious dental trauma, jaw fractures, abscesses requiring hospital admission, and dental emergencies in medically complex patients. For routine dental pain or broken teeth, you should contact a high street dentist or NHS 111 rather than attending A&E, as the hospital prioritises serious cases.

Can I get an emergency NHS dental appointment in Wandsworth at the weekend?

Do I need to be registered with a dentist?

No. You can request an emergency appointment without being an existing patient. Private emergency clinics will see new patients on the same day.

Will they fix the problem permanently?

Emergency visits focus on stabilising pain and infection. Definitive treatment such as a crown, root canal, or extraction may be planned after assessment.

What if I'm not sure it's an emergency?

It's safer to be assessed. If you're in pain or have swelling, a dentist can diagnose the cause and advise on next steps. Pearlie helps you connect with clinics quickly.

How much does an emergency dental appointment cost?

A private emergency assessment typically costs £50 to £150, with additional charges for treatment. For example, a temporary filling is £80 to £150, an extraction £100 to £400, and an emergency root canal £300 to £700. Pearlie shows you expected price ranges before you attend.

Can I see an emergency dentist on weekends or at night?

Some private dental clinics offer weekend and evening emergency appointments. NHS 111 can also direct you to out of hours dental services. If you have a life threatening emergency such as severe breathing difficulty or uncontrolled bleeding, go to A&E.

Should I go to A&E for a dental emergency?

A&E is only appropriate for life threatening situations: severe facial swelling that affects breathing or swallowing, uncontrolled bleeding, or facial trauma. For most dental emergencies such as toothache, broken tooth, or lost filling, an emergency dental clinic is the right place. A&E doctors are not equipped to provide dental treatment.
