- Step 02: Depending on the severity of the pain, the area will be numbed with a local anaesthetic.
- Step 03: The damaged teeth will be restored temporarily or permanently, depending on the case.
- Step 04: The tooth may be removed, and replacement options will be discussed.

frequently asked questions
Emergency Dental Appointments in Chesham

When should I seek emergency dental care?
- In general, you should visit your dentist if you are experiencing severe pain or bleeding in your mouth, have a broken tooth or filling, or need immediate treatment due to an infection. Additionally, if you have a lost crown or bridge, a cracked tooth, swelling in the face or neck, or any other dental injury that requires urgent attention, it's important to seek help as soon as possible.
If you are unsure whether your situation qualifies as an emergency, it's best to call our reception team, and they will arrange an appointment with the dentist. They can then advise you on the best course of action and provide further guidance about what steps to take next.
What happens during an emergency appointment?
- During an emergency dental appointment, the dentist will assess your dental problem. Depending on the severity of your condition, they may need to take X-rays to better understand what is going on. Common treatments for emergency cases include filling a cavity or tooth extraction. If needed, more complex procedures, such as root canals and crowns, may be recommended to restore the health of your mouth.
Throughout the appointment, your dentist will explain each step of the process so you know exactly what is happening. It's important to follow all instructions from your dentist to maintain good oral health and reduce the risk of needing another emergency appointment in the future.
What should I do if I have severe pain or a knocked-out tooth?
- If you experience severe pain or have a knocked-out tooth, you should seek emergency dental care as soon as possible. In these cases, it is important to visit a dentist right away to prevent further damage and to receive the necessary treatment. If you have a knocked-out tooth, try to keep the tooth moist by storing it in milk until your appointment. Bring the tooth with you when you go for treatment, and your dentist may be able to re-implant it if your condition permits. If not, they can discuss other options, such as bridges or implants, to restore your smile.

I consider myself extremely lucky to have such a professional dental practice in my hometown. When I was contemplating Invisalign to correct the alignment of my teeth, Chess House were my immediate ‘go to’. They explained the process in a clear and understandable manner, with support and advice available at every stage. The results speak for themselves - I’m now able to smile in pictures! I am so pleased that Chess House guided me through this procedure. I wouldn’t trust anyone else with my teeth and oral health!

Dr Shah has done an amazing job with my teeth, I started Invisalign® a year ago and at the final stages now. My teeth and smile have completely transformed and I’ve got my confidence back. The whitening treatment and composite bonding has been worth it. Highly recommend Chess House!

I had some cosmetic dental work done recently at Chess House Dental Practice and it was great from start to finish. Yash and his colleagues were brilliant. I felt they really took great care in what they did and also offered me plenty of options along the way, mindful of costs. Thanks so much to all at the practice - I'm very happy with the outcome.
