Call your emergency dentist in Edinburgh, at Polwarth Dental Clinic, as soon as you can if you think you need urgent treatment. If necessary, you can ask someone else to call for you but ensure they have all the details to pass on to the dentist.

Dental emergencies include times when you think you might lose a tooth, when you are in intense pain or if there is a lot of blood coming from anywhere in your mouth. If you have other injuries, have sustained a blow to the head or you think you might be sick in a way that is unrelated to your tooth, call your doctor or visit your local A&E who will take care of you.
