Emergency Dental Care at our practice
If you have a dental emergency - severe toothache, swelling, a broken or knocked-out tooth, or an injury to your mouth - call Anstey Family Dental Centre as early in the day as possible on 0116 236 2534. Calling early gives us the strongest chance of offering you the soonest available appointment.
Emergency treatment is available on both NHS and private terms. Most emergency care, including pain relief and first-stage treatment, falls under NHS Band 2 (£76.60).
Out of hours: If you need urgent dental help when the practice is closed, call NHS 111, who can direct you to the nearest available urgent dental service.
Please do not attend Accident and Emergency for dental pain alone - NHS 111 or an urgent dental service is usually the right route.
