Bad pain, bleeding that will not stop, swelling in your mouth or face, and knocks to your teeth or jaw are all urgent. NHS 111 can check it with you if you are not sure.

How much does an emergency appointment cost?

Each dentist sets their own private prices, so they vary. Where a dentist shows the price on their website, we show it above. NHS urgent care has a set NHS price. In England it is £27.90.
