If you are looking for a trusted emergency dentist in London, Ontario, Apple Tree Dental is ready to help. We have two clinics — North London and South London — both accepting emergency patients. Call us between 9 AM and 8 PM and we will get you seen the same day.
What Counts as a Dental Emergency?
Severe Toothache
A throbbing or constant tooth pain with swelling is a sign of infection or nerve damage. Painkillers only mask the pain — they do not stop an infection. Call us right away. Our team may recommend a root canal if the nerve is affected.
Knocked-Out Tooth
Pick up the tooth by the crown (not the root). Rinse gently, place it back in the socket or keep it in milk, and call us immediately. Time is critical — we aim to see you within the hour.
Chipped or Broken Tooth
Broken teeth from sports injuries or accidents need same-day attention. Sharp edges can injure your tongue and cheek. Contact us right away. Learn more about how cosmetic dentistry can restore your smile after trauma.
Lost Filling, Crown, or Bridge
An exposed tooth becomes sensitive fast. Call us as soon as possible — we will schedule you at the earliest available time.
Dental Abscess or Swelling
Swelling in your gum, jaw, or face can spread to your neck or jaw bone if untreated. This is a serious emergency — call immediately.
Wisdom Tooth Pain
Sudden pain at the back of your mouth is often caused by an impacted or infected wisdom tooth. Our team handles wisdom teeth extraction including emergency cases.
Dental Anxiety During Emergencies
If fear is stopping you from calling us — we offer sedation dentistry to keep you calm and comfortable throughout your treatment.
What to Do Before You Reach Us
- Pain: Take ibuprofen — do not place aspirin directly on the gum
- Swelling: Cold pack on cheek — 10 minutes on, 10 off
- Knocked-out tooth: Keep it moist in milk or saliva
- Bleeding: Clean gauze with gentle pressure for 10–15 minutes
- Lost crown: Dental cement from pharmacy can temporarily hold it
Call us and we will guide you on the way.
