 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I recently had extensive dental work completed and cannot recommend Alex highly enough.  Her warm, friendly demeanour,
ability to explain each process of dental procedure and patience
with me as I am real “stressbag”  helped me to feel comfortable
through the whole process.
Thank you Alex and all the team for your gentle care and understanding.
I would unhesitatingly recommend Alex and team to all my fiends,
anyone looking for a great dentist.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. This is a great Dental Practice!
The receptionists are polite and friendly, and the dentists are highly skilled and
GENTLE, and very pleasant to the patients.
If any dental work needs to be performed the dentists discusses the situation with the patient and doesn't start until the patient is fully informed and consents to the work.
Check it out; you won't be disappointed.
Any waiting time at pre-arranged appointment times has always been minimal (from my personal experience).

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Absolutely amazing dental practice! We are visiting from the uk and unfortunately I had a bad toothache flare up. We got a same day emergency appointment and after X-rays, I was offered several options. The ladies on the reception were really kind and supportive and Dr Asela was thorough with his examination and clear with the cause and prescribed relevant medications. Would 100% recommend this practice.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I came to the dental clinic to get impressions for whitening trays. I never had alginate impressions before, but I’ve heard that they are messy and uncomfortable.. But that wasn’t the case at all! Dr Geeta was so quick and the whole process was very comfortable and clean. You can tell the dentist has a lot of experience and I will definitely be back. The receptionists at the front were also very welcoming, and the overall vibe of the office was very clean and organized. I felt like I was at a spa.
Highly recommend this place

Urgent Dental Care, Delivered with Comfort and Clarity

We prioritise your comfort first, then provide a straightforward diagnosis and treatment options to help you resolve the problem safely and confidently.

Fast
Relief, First

Our first goal is to reduce pain and pressure where possible, so you can function comfortably while we address the underlying issue.

Thorough
Assessment

We don’t guess. We assess the tooth and surrounding tissues carefully, and use X rays when clinically needed to understand the cause.

Clear
Next Steps

You’ll leave knowing what is happening and what comes next, whether it’s same visit treatment, medication support, or a planned follow up.

Gentle,
Calm Approach

If you are anxious, we slow down, explain step by step, and keep the experience as comfortable as possible.

When Is It a Dental Emergency

Not every dental problem needs urgent care, but some symptoms should be assessed quickly to prevent complications. You should contact us as soon as possible if you have:

Severe toothache that does not settle
Swelling of the gums, face or jaw
A broken tooth, chipped tooth with pain, or sharp edge cutting your cheek
Bleeding that does not stop after an injury
A knocked or loosened tooth from trauma
A lost crown or filling causing pain or sensitivity
A bad taste, discharge, or a “pimple” on the gum (possible infection)

If you feel unwell, have fever, or swelling is spreading, seek urgent medical support in addition to contacting us.

Common Emergency Treatments We Provide

Emergency visits are about stabilising the issue and preventing it from getting worse. Depending on what we find, treatment may include:

Pain relief and infection control advice
Temporary or definitive fillings
Management of cracked or broken teeth
Re cementing or replacing crowns (where suitable)
Assessment and management of dental infections
Root canal assessment or emergency relief procedures
Tooth extraction when a tooth cannot be saved
Trauma assessment for knocked or loosened teeth

Your treatment will always be based on what is clinically appropriate for your situation.

Your Local Dentist in Northern Beaches QLD

What to Expect at Your Emergency Appointment

Quick check in and symptom review
We start by understanding your pain, timing, triggers, and any swelling or trauma history.
Targeted examination
We examine the tooth, gums and bite, and check for cracks, infection signs and gum involvement.
X rays if required
X rays may be recommended if we need to see infection, root issues, hidden decay or trauma damage.
Relief and stabilisation
We focus on the safest way to ease discomfort and stop the problem from escalating.
Clear plan and follow up
Some cases can be resolved quickly, while others need staged care. We will explain timelines, options and costs clearly.

What to Do Right Now (Before You Arrive)

Toothache

Rinse gently with warm salt water, avoid chewing on that side, and call us for an assessment.

Swelling

Do not apply heat. Use a cold pack on the outside of the cheek and contact us urgently.

Broken tooth

Keep any fragments, avoid hard foods, and call. If there is bleeding, apply gentle pressure with gauze.

Knocked out tooth

Time matters. Handle the tooth by the crown only, keep it moist (milk or saliva), and call immediately.

Aftercare and Ongoing Prevention

Emergency care solves the urgent problem, but long term comfort often requires prevention and follow up.

We may recommend a review appointment to confirm healing, check gum health, and plan restorative treatment such as a crown or filling. We will also guide you on home care, diet and habits that reduce the chance of recurrence.

Can you see me today?

We prioritise urgent cases where possible. Call us on 07 4059 2291 and we will advise the earliest suitable time.

Swelling can indicate infection and should be assessed quickly, especially if it is increasing or you feel unwell.

What if my pain comes and goes?

Intermittent pain can still indicate decay, cracks or infection. It is best to assess early before it escalates.

Will emergency treatment be painful?

Our priority is gentle care. We aim to relieve discomfort first and keep treatment as comfortable as possible.
