Arana Hills Dental Emergencies: When To Call Us
It is not always obvious what counts as an emergency. As a rule, call us if you are dealing with any of these:
- Severe or persistent toothache that does not respond to pain relief
- Facial swelling, especially around the jaw, cheek or eye
- Broken, cracked or chipped teeth, particularly if they are painful or sharp
- Knocked-out teeth, (avulsed teeth) following a fall or sports injury
- Dental abscess or infection (often with throbbing pain or a bad taste)
- Lost fillings or crowns, especially if the tooth is sensitive or painful
- Trauma to the mouth, lips or soft tissues
Still not sure how serious it is? That is completely normal. Give us a call and we will help you work out whether you need to come in today or whether it can safely wait a little longer.

What To Expect at Your Arana Hills Emergency Visit
Your comfort comes first. We start by easing the pain, then take a proper look at what has caused the problem, using an x-ray where it helps. We will explain what we have found in plain language, lay out the choices, and make sure you understand the cost before we begin. Wherever possible we treat you on the spot so you are not left waiting for relief.
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
For patients with private cover, we provide the item numbers you need to make a claim, and we are open to discussing payment options so care stays within reach. Ask us and we will point you in the right direction.

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.
