Yes. We keep same-day emergency appointments open every weekday and Saturday for patients in Berala, Auburn, Lidcombe and surrounding Sydney suburbs. Call (02) 9649 6468 or message us on WhatsApp and we'll triage you straight away.
A dental emergency is anything causing severe pain, swelling, bleeding that won't stop, a knocked-out or broken tooth, lost crown or filling, or facial trauma. If you're not sure, call us — we'll help you decide whether to come in today or this week.
Emergency consults start from $80 including any necessary X-rays. Treatment costs depend on what's needed — we always provide a written quote before any work goes ahead. We accept all major health funds, Medicare CDBS for eligible kids, and offer Afterpay and Zip payment plans.
If a permanent tooth is knocked out, time is critical. Pick it up by the crown (not the root), rinse gently in milk or saline if dirty, and either re-implant it in the socket or store it in milk. Call us immediately on (02) 9649 6468 — re-implantation is most successful within 30 minutes.

While waiting to be seen, take ibuprofen (400mg) if not contraindicated — it works best for nerve-related pain. Apply a cold pack to the outside of the cheek for 20 minutes on, 20 off. Avoid heat, aspirin placed on the gum, or alcohol. Severe persistent pain usually means infection or nerve damage that won't settle on its own — call us for a same-day appointment.
