Your Emergency Appointment in East Brisbane, Step by Step
The moment you arrive, our priority is getting you out of pain. We will check the tooth and surrounding area, take an x-ray if we need one, and explain clearly what is going on before we do anything. From there we will talk through your options, give you a straight answer on cost, and only move ahead once you are comfortable. Most of the time we can start treatment the same visit so you leave feeling better than you came in.

Fees, health funds & payment options
Ours is a private billing practice, which means we discuss the fees with you openly before anything happens. We would rather you feel informed and comfortable than surprised by a bill.
- The type of problem
- Any diagnostic tests required (e.g. X-rays)
- Whether treatment can be completed at the same appointment
Have private health insurance? We will supply the relevant item numbers so you can see your level of cover, and we can discuss flexible payment options where they help. Never let cost stop you from being seen.
Children's Dental Emergencies in East Brisbane
When it comes to younger patients, the emergencies we manage often include:
- Knocked-out or displaced teeth from falls or sports
- Dental trauma to baby teeth
- Toothache due to decay or infection
Children need a bit of extra reassurance, and our team is great at giving it. We focus on making the visit as relaxed as possible while we sort out the problem and keep you fully in the loop.
After-Hours Emergency Care for East Brisbane
Emergencies do not keep office hours. If something goes wrong after we have closed, phone through anyway, follow the guidance on our message, and we will prioritise getting you seen as soon as we reopen.
- For severe pain, swelling, trauma or uncontrolled bleeding, call 000 or attend your nearest hospital emergency department.
- For non-life-threatening issues, you can leave a message or request an appointment online and we will contact you on the next business day.

Frequently asked questions
How long can I wait with a toothache?
If you have persistent or severe toothache, you should seek care as soon as possible. Pain that doesn’t settle can indicate infection or nerve damage and usually won’t resolve on its own.
Do I need to see a dentist if the pain goes away?
Yes. Pain that comes and goes can still indicate an underlying problem. It’s best to have the tooth assessed to prevent a more serious emergency later.
Can you see me today?
We keep time aside for emergencies and will do our best to see you on the same day. Please call us early in the day if possible.
Do you accept health funds?
Yes, we can provide item numbers and receipts for your health fund and discuss estimates before treatment is carried out.
