A dental emergency is any situation that requires urgent dental care to stop severe pain, bleeding, or prevent further damage. This often includes issues like intense toothache, infections, abscesses, or trauma such as a knocked-out or broken tooth. If you’re in pain or have sudden swelling, it’s important to see an emergency dentist as soon as possible to avoid complications.
At Knighton Dental, an emergency dental appointment costs £37, which includes a full assessment and a personalised treatment plan. Same-day appointments are available, including Saturdays, to ensure you get fast relief when you need it most. This affordable pricing makes Knighton Dental one of the most accessible options for urgent dental care in Leicester.
We proudly serve patients from Leicester and surrounding areas including Oadby, Wigston, Market Harborough, Lutterworth, Blaby, and Great Glen.
Our reception team will ask you a few questions about your condition and book you in for an emergency appointment.
During your appointment, our dentist will examine your mouth and determine a diagnosis. If your dental emergency is a cosmetic issue, we will do our best to fix your tooth with a temporary solution. If you have come to us in a great deal of pain, we will do everything we can to send you home feeling well and pain-free.
Depending on the emergency, we may need to see you again for a follow-up restorative treatment or check-up.
At Knighton Dental, our emergency dentistry team is dedicated to providing prompt and effective care to relieve your dental pain and address urgent dental issues as quickly as possible. In emergency situations, acting fast is essential to prevent complications and ensure long-lasting relief.

A dental abscess is a serious emergency.
An abscess usually starts as a gum infection, tooth infection or cavity.
Symptoms include severe toothache, swelling, fever, and a bad taste in your mouth.
If you suspect you have an abscess, it’s crucial to seek immediate care at Knighton Dental Practice to receive the necessary treatment and prevent further complications.
If you’re unable to find an NHS dentist, especially during a dental emergency, it’s important not to delay treatment. Dental problems like infections, swelling, or severe toothache can quickly worsen without care. At Knighton Dental, we offer affordable private emergency appointments from £37, with same-day availability, even on Saturdays. You don’t need to be registered with us — we welcome all patients in need of urgent dental care when NHS options are unavailable.
If you need emergency dental care out-of-hours, please call NHS 111 or visit you nearest A&E department if you’re experiencing severe pain, swelling, or trauma. For less urgent issues, you can leave us a message or use our online booking system, and we’ll prioritise your appointment as soon as we’re open.
