We explain what we recommend, and why, before any treatment begins. Our commitment to you
If you are in pain or have had a dental injury, call us on the number at the top of this page during clinic hours, Monday to Saturday, Janakpuri 11am–7pm, Gurugram 10am–7pm, and say it is urgent. Urgent cases are fitted in during clinic hours wherever possible. Outside those hours, please do not assume emergency cover: a hospital emergency department is the right place for a facial swelling that affects breathing or swallowing, uncontrolled bleeding, or an injury to the face or jaw.
What to do right now
A knocked-out adult tooth: hold it by the crown, not the root; rinse briefly if dirty; put it back in the socket if you can, or keep it in milk; come in immediately: the first hour matters.
A broken tooth or lost crown: keep the piece or the crown, avoid chewing on that side, and call.
Swelling of the face or difficulty swallowing or breathing: go to a hospital emergency department.
Toothache: ordinary painkillers as directed on the pack; avoid putting aspirin on the gum; call for the earliest appointment.
