FAQS

The cost of an emergency dental appointment can be found on our fees page. The cost of your dental treatment can vary depending on the problem and any treatment required.

 We will always explain any costs clearly before starting treatment.

We aim to provide immediate relief and may begin treatment during your emergency appointment. However, some treatments may require a follow-up visit depending on complexity.

No, a dental infection will not go away without treatment. While symptoms may temporarily improve, the infection will remain. Our dentists can give you full detailed advice during your appointment.

If you experience pain, trauma, swelling, or damage to a tooth, contact the practice as soon as possible. Our team will assess your situation and arrange an urgent appointment where needed.

During your appointment, the dentist will:

  • Examine the problem
  • Identify the cause
  • Relieve pain where possible
  • Explain your options

The priority is to get you comfortable and stabilise the issue.

Tooth pain can feel worse at night because lying down increases blood flow to the head, which can increase pressure in the affected tooth. There are also fewer distractions, making the pain feel more intense.

I have been a patient at the surgery about 12 years. All staff have been polite, friendly and empathetic. This has encouraged me to keep going regularly, even though I have a big phobia of dentists

It's shows in the score . They were very good at their job.

I have been with Unique Smiles for years and have never had a problem. The Hygenist (my least favourite appointment) is very good and knows how much I dislike the procedure. Estelle, my dentist has always been very good and caring. We can, and do, have conversations about the treatment and any other options available. All in all I have no complaints whatever.

I have highly sensitive teeth and gums. I have built a rapport with the Hygienist and dentist and they know which areas are sensitive and give extra care to those areas, very reassuring.

Dentist explained treatment options clearly and explained field of expertise required. Careful check up related to my current state of health.Good to see that this practice is involved with the practical training of future professionals. Most impressed with the explanations given by the hygienist preparing the trainee for the next step and the knowledgeable and careful supervision and guidance of the experienced dental nurse.
