Frequently asked questions

Can I get same-day help for toothache in Richmond?
Yes — we keep emergency slots each weekday (Mon–Fri). Call as early as you can and we'll do our best to see you the same day.
How can I relieve toothache at home?
Rinsing with warm salt water and taking over-the-counter pain relief as directed can help temporarily. These ease symptoms but don't fix the cause, so see a dentist promptly.
Why does my toothache come and go?
Pain that settles can still mean an active problem like decay or infection. It often returns and worsens, so it's best to get it checked even if it eases.
How much will it cost?
It starts with an exam to find the cause, and any treatment is quoted before we proceed. Health fund rebates apply on the spot via HICAPS.
When should I see a dentist urgently?
Severe or worsening pain, facial swelling, fever, or pain stopping you sleeping or eating all warrant prompt care. Call us, or for serious after-hours emergencies contact your nearest hospital.
