Frequently asked questions
Dental emergencies: your questions
What should I do if I have severe toothache?
Call the practice: we assess your situation and do our utmost to offer you an emergency appointment the same day. In the meantime, your usual painkiller may help; do not put aspirin directly on the gum and avoid hot and cold on the tooth. Severe toothache is often treated with root canal treatment.
What should I do if a tooth has been knocked out?
Pick the tooth up by the crown without touching the root, rinse it briefly without rubbing and keep it in milk or in your mouth, against your cheek. See a dentist immediately: the chances of putting it back decrease quickly.
When should I call 112?
If facial swelling comes with a high fever or makes breathing or swallowing difficult, or after a serious injury to the face, call 112 or go to a hospital emergency department.
Who should I call in the evening or at the weekend?
Outside opening hours, the Brussels dental on-call service gives the list of on-call dentists on 02 426 10 26.
