Emergency Dentist for Logan & Brisbane's Southside

Dental emergencies include severe toothaches, knocked-out teeth, facial swelling, dental abscesses, broken teeth, uncontrolled bleeding and injuries to the mouth or jaw.

My Dental Home is in Underwood, roughly a 15-minute drive from Logan Central, and sees patients from Logan, Springwood, Rochedale and surrounding suburbs. How soon we can see you depends on the day's bookings — call and our team will check the earliest appointment available. Severe tooth pain, broken or chipped teeth, swelling, dental infections, knocked-out teeth and lost fillings or crowns are all concerns we assess as a priority. Calling early in the day gives you the best chance of a slot that day.

If you break or chip a tooth, contact a dentist promptly and explain what happened and whether you have pain, bleeding or swelling. At an emergency appointment, the dentist can examine the damaged tooth and may take an X-ray to determine the extent of the injury before discussing treatment. My Dental Home offers emergency appointments for broken and chipped teeth at its Underwood clinic.

Tooth pain should be assessed promptly when it is severe, persistent or accompanied by swelling or other signs of infection. These symptoms can have several causes, including untreated decay, a cracked tooth, an infection or an abscess. An emergency dentist can identify the cause and recommend treatment rather than simply masking the pain.

If you've broken or chipped a tooth, seeing a dentist for a broken tooth promptly can help prevent further damage and determine whether the tooth can be repaired. Same-day treatment may be available depending on the type of injury.

For a knocked-out adult tooth, urgent dental care is needed. Handle the tooth by the crown, not the root, and avoid scrubbing it. If it cannot be safely returned to its socket, keep it in milk while seeking immediate dental care. Contact a dentist as quickly as possible for instructions.

Do not put a knocked-out baby tooth back into its socket. Arrange prompt dental assessment for the child. If you are unsure whether the tooth is a baby or adult tooth, seek immediate professional advice.

Most dental emergencies should be treated by a dentist. If you have difficulty breathing, heavy bleeding or a suspected broken jaw, seek emergency medical attention immediately.
