Emergency Dentist in St Ives
What is a Dental Emergency?
A dental emergency is any situation that causes sudden pain, bleeding, swelling or trauma that requires immediate professional care. These issues can escalate quickly if left untreated, leading to infection or permanent damage. Recognising the signs early can ensure you receive timely and effective treatment.
Common dental emergencies include:
- Severe or persistent toothache that won’t subside
- Broken, chipped or knocked-out teeth
- Swelling in the gums, jaw or face
- Lost fillings, crowns or other dental work causing discomfort
- Dental abscesses or infection
If you experience any of these symptoms, contact St Ives Dental Boutique on (02) 8529 8159 for prompt, compassionate care from our emergency dentist team.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is considered a dental emergency?
A dental emergency includes any oral issue that causes sudden pain, bleeding or trauma that requires immediate attention. This may involve broken teeth, severe infections, knocked-out teeth or swelling in the gums and jaw. Acting quickly can prevent permanent damage, reduce pain and preserve oral health.
Do I need to make an appointment for an emergency?
Yes—always call ahead. Emergency slots are set aside daily for patients needing urgent treatment. Calling (02) 8529 8159 can help ensure our team can prepare for your arrival, provide advice on what to do before you come in and prioritise your care upon arrival.
How much does an emergency dental visit cost?
Costs vary depending on the treatment required. A consultation and pain relief may be all that’s needed, while more complex procedures—like root canals or extractions—can affect pricing. You’ll often receive a quote before treatment begins, and HICAPS facilities are available for on-the-spot health fund claims.
What should I do if I knock out a tooth?
Pick up the tooth by the crown (avoid touching the root), gently rinse it in milk or saline and try to place it back in the socket. If that’s not possible, store it in milk or saliva and get to a dentist within 30–60 minutes. Early action significantly improves the chances of saving the tooth.
Can children see an emergency dentist?
Yes. Children experiencing dental pain, swelling or injury should see an emergency dentist immediately. Early assessment prevents complications and supports proper tooth development. Our friendly, family-focused team ensures young patients feel comfortable throughout their visit.
Do you accept private health insurance?
Yes. Most emergency dental services can be claimed through private health insurance, depending on your level of extras cover. On-the-spot HICAPS claiming is available for added convenience.
