Your teeth can on occasions be a source of utmost pain and discomfort. Accidents happen and suddenly finding yourself in the situation where your tooth has been knocked out or become dislodged can be distressing. Trying to locate an emergency dentist in Edinburgh while dealing with the pain and anguish can put you under a great deal of strain. Since 1955 Polwarth Dental Clinic has been providing quality dental care.

You are never on your own

Monday to Friday we offer same-day emergency appointments, because it is important to be treated as soon as possible to relieve the pain and prevent any further damage. All members of our team are trained to deal with dental emergencies and getting you in as soon as possible will be a priority.

If your emergency occurs out of our normal dental hours, all you have to do is phone us and listen carefully to the instructions of the online call dentist. You can relax in the knowledge that this service is available to you for 365 days a year.

Rather be safe

It is difficult to define a dental emergency and our advice to you is phone us sooner rather than later, we can then discuss your condition and make an informed decision. As an emergency dentist in Edinburgh we have a vast amount of experience and rather than trying self-diagnosis it is better to speak with us, if only for peace of mind. You may not regard toothache as a dental emergency, but we would rather that you phoned us so that we can identify the location and duration of the pain. There may be other signs associated with the pain, such as swelling or bleeding.  An abscess may have developed and if not treated this can cause an infection which in turn can lead to other complications and health problems.

Guiding you

Preventive dentistry will help to eliminate having to use our emergency dentist in Edinburgh services. At Polwarth Dental Clinic we provide a range of dental services including preventive, restorative and cosmetic. Regular brushing and flossing and a visit to our dental surgery at least twice a year will reduce the number of unscheduled dental appointments because of poor dental hygiene. During each routine visit we will examine, identify and treat any problem that may be manifesting. This should ensure that your teeth stay healthy until the next scheduled appointment. We encourage you to bring your little ones in to see us, if you have children, so that they can get used to us and we can see how their teeth and gums are progressing. Early detection will also reduce the chance of any unexpected appointments. Our warm and friendly team will also be able to explain to them the importance of getting into a routine of proper teeth cleaning. Even if you have taught them to brush their teeth, reinforcing your teaching will not do any harm.
