Need an Emergency Dentist Today? We’re in Weybridge, Surrey

Finding an NHS emergency dentist can be very difficult due to ongoing NHS dental service challenges. At our private practice in Weybridge, Surrey, we offer same-day emergency dental appointments for £55, including x-rays. For NHS emergency care, patients should contact NHS 111 if they experience severe pain, injuries, or swelling. NHS emergency appointments aim to see patients within 24 hours, but availability varies by location.

Finding an NHS dentist these days is no easy feat, especially one that can see you urgently

Unfortunately, the state of NHS dentistry is in crisis, and little is being done to rectify or improve the situation. So hopefully we can help you.

Full disclosure, we’re not an NHS dentist; we’re a private dental practice. But we can still help.

Searching for an “emergency dentist near me?”

If you’re not interested in booking our emergency dentist appointment in Surrey for £55, we can help you find an emergency dentist near you.

To find an emergency dentist in your area, the best option is first to contact NHS 111, which can provide you with advice and potentially refer you to urgent dental care services in your location.

That said, the NHS website outlines that patients should only get in touch with 111 if:

  • Patients have an injury affecting their teeth
  • Patients have a knocked-out tooth
  • Patients have severe pain affecting sleep/activities
  • Severe dental pain is not helped by painkillers like paracetamol
  • Patients have swelling or a lump inside their mouth that’s growing
  • Patients have recently had a tooth removed and have severe pain or non-stop bleeding

Alternatively, you can also try searching the NHS website (“Find a dentist” service) with your postcode to locate local NHS dentists that might be currently accepting new patients.

However, for patients experiencing severe pain or a particular dental injury, it’s advisable to call 111 immediately. NHS 111 can also assist with any out-of-hours dental emergencies.

How long will you have to wait for an emergency dental appointment?

The answer depends on whether you opt for private care or use the NHS – not to mention your location and the availability of your preferred practice.

When being seen by an NHS dentist for an emergency dental appointment, the aim is to see you within 24 hours.

Please note that this might take longer, depending on the severity of your issue and the availability of your local NHS dental practice.

Typically, many dental practices, like ours, reserve slots for emergencies, which means we can often accommodate you on the same day or, at the latest, the next day.

As a private clinic, we understand how frightening and painful dental emergencies can be and will always go out of our way to get you in as soon as possible.

Getting an urgent appointment faster

For same-day or next-day appointments

It’s typical for private practices like MyoDental to prioritise emergency appointments and see patients quickly. The NHS will try to do this, but it’s not always possible. Call MyoDental on 01932 989785 today to book an immediate emergency appointment for £55.

Out-of-hours help

If your dental emergency occurs outside of our regular opening hours, you can always try our local practice’s answerphone, which we’ll check as soon as we arrive and reserve an appointment for you. Alternatively, you can message us on WhatsApp.

If you can’t get in touch with a dentist or any immediate service, you can call NHS 111 for guidance and information on local emergency services.

Being on a waiting list

It’s not uncommon for NHS dental practices to have waiting lists for routine appointments, so it’s worth checking the type of remedial treatment you can expect on the day.
