Common dental emergencies we treat in Lynbrook and Lyndhurst

If you need an emergency dentist in Lyndhurst or Lynbrook, these are the problems we see most often. If yours isn’t listed, call us anyway and we’ll help you work out how urgent it is.

Toothache relief

A toothache can come from decay, a cracked tooth, an irritated nerve or a gum problem. We’ll find the cause with a careful exam and, if needed, X-rays. Then we’ll work to relieve the pain and get you comfortable, and explain your options before any treatment starts.

Broken or chipped teeth

A chip might feel small and sharp against your tongue, while a bigger break can expose the sensitive inner layers of the tooth. We’ll check how deep the damage goes, settle any pain and talk you through repair options, such as a filling or a crown, depending on what the tooth needs.

Knocked-out teeth

A knocked-out adult tooth is very time-sensitive. Ideally, you should be seen within 30 minutes, so please call us straight away. We’ll check the tooth and the area around it and, where possible, No images (cards) work to secure the tooth back in place.

Lost fillings or crowns

When a filling or crown comes out, the tooth underneath can feel sensitive and is more likely to break. We’ll check the tooth, replace the filling, and re-fit or replace the crown where we can. Lynbrook has its own in-house dental lab, which helps with crown and denture repairs.

Abscesses and infections

An abscess is an infection, often around the root of a tooth or in the gum. Signs include a throbbing ache, a pimple-like bump on the gum, swelling, a bad taste or a fever. It needs prompt treatment of the source, so please call us early.

Orthodontic emergencies

Braces and clear aligners can have their own small emergencies, like a wire that pokes, a loose bracket or a cracked aligner. They can make it hard to eat or sleep. We’ll check the problem, adjust or repair what’s needed and help keep your treatment on track.

Knocked-out tooth? What to do in the first 30 minutes

Knocks happen, at school, at footy training or on the backyard trampoline. A knocked-out adult tooth is one of the few dental emergencies where minutes count. The sooner it’s back in place or kept moist and seen by a dentist, the better the chance of saving it.

Try to stay calm, and if it’s your child, keep them calm too. These steps are simple and you can do them before you get in the car.

1

Find the tooth and pick it up by the crown, the white part you chew with. Try not to touch the root.

2

If it’s dirty, rinse it briefly in milk or saline. Don’t scrub it, and don’t let it dry out.

3

If you can, gently push it back into the socket the right way round, then bite softly on a clean cloth to hold it there.

4

If it won’t go back, put it in a small container of milk. An adult can also hold it inside their mouth against the cheek.

5

Call us straight away on (03) 8782 0026 and say a tooth has been knocked out, so we can see you as soon as we possibly can.

Is it a baby tooth? Don't put it back.

Never put a baby tooth back in. It can damage the adult tooth growing underneath. Press a clean cloth on any bleeding, keep your child comfortable, and call us for advice.

When you arrive

When you get to Dyson Drive, we'll check the tooth, the socket and the teeth around it, and take an X-ray. If the tooth can go back, we'll gently reposition it and splint it to its neighbours while it settles. We'll explain the follow-up visits you'll need and what to watch for at home.

If we're closed

We're open until 8:30pm on weeknights and on Saturdays. If it happens when we're closed, don't wait until we open: go to your nearest hospital emergency department. Call 000 if there's also a head injury, loss of consciousness or bleeding that won't stop.

Your emergency visit to Lynbrook Dental Care, step by step

1 We listen and take a look

We’ll start by asking what happened and how you’re feeling. Then we’ll gently examine the area and take X-rays if they’re needed, so we understand what’s causing the problem, not just the symptoms.

2 We explain your options

We’ll tell you what we found in plain words, along with your options and their costs, before any treatment begins. Ask as many questions as you like. Nothing goes ahead without your OK.

3 We relieve pain and plan what's next

Our first priority is to relieve your pain and get you comfortable. If the tooth needs more care later, such as a crown or a wisdom tooth removal , we’ll plan follow-up visits at times that suit you.

This page is general information only and isn't a substitute for advice from a dentist or doctor about your situation. Any surgical or invasive procedure carries risks, so before going ahead, seek advice from an appropriately qualified health practitioner.

FAQs

Can I get a same-day emergency dental appointment in Lynbrook?

We’ll do our best to see you within 24 hours, and often sooner, but we can’t always guarantee it. The earlier you call, the more options we usually have. Phone (03) 8782 0026 and we’ll find the earliest time available and tell you what to do until then.

Are you open on weekends?

Yes, we’re open Saturdays from 9am to 4pm, which helps when a tooth plays up over the weekend. We’re closed on Sundays, so if it can wait, call us when we open on Monday. For red-flag symptoms like spreading swelling or trouble breathing, call 000.

My wisdom tooth is really painful. Can a specialist help?

Wisdom tooth pain is a common reason people call us. Dr Naser Albarbari, a registered specialist oral surgeon, works at our Lynbrook clinic and cares for patients needing complex extractions and wisdom tooth removal . We’ll first assess what’s causing the pain, then talk you through your options, including whether seeing Dr Albarbari is right for you.

Yes. There’s free on-site parking at the entrance on Dyson Drive, with no tolls or parking meters, and a lift up to our upstairs reception. The 901 SmartBus stops about a five-minute walk away. Let us know when you call if you need extra help getting in.

My crown or denture has broken. Can you help?

Do you see children for dental emergencies?

Yes. Kids can chip or knock out a tooth at the park or playing sport, and a toothache can be really upsetting for little ones and their parents. Call us and we’ll talk you through what to do. If a baby tooth is knocked out, don’t put it back. Call us for advice instead.
