Emergency Dentist in Banstead

Dental emergencies can happen at the worst times, and when they do, you need fast, reliable care to relieve pain and prevent further complications. At Zen House Dental, our emergency dentist in Banstead services are designed to provide quick relief and expert treatment for a wide range of dental issues. Whether you’re dealing with a broken tooth, an intense and sudden toothache or an infection, our experienced team is here to help.

What is a Dental Emergency?

Any case where immediate treatment is necessary to save a tooth, relieve persistent pain, or address damage that could result in more serious issues is considered a dental emergency. If you’re in pain, have suffered trauma to your mouth, or notice swelling or bleeding that won’t stop, it’s time to seek help. At Zen House Dental, we offer same-day emergency appointments to ensure you get the care you need right when you need it.

Common Dental Emergencies We Treat

Severe Toothache

If you’re experiencing a throbbing or sharp pain in your tooth, it could be a sign of an infection, decay, or an abscess. Untreated, this can lead to more severe complications. We’ll assess the issue and provide the necessary treatment to relieve your discomfort.

Broken, Cracked, or Knocked-Out Teeth

Accidents can happen at any time, and a broken or knocked-out tooth can cause immediate pain and long-term damage if not treated quickly. Our team will work swiftly to repair the tooth or, in the case of a knocked-out tooth, attempt to save and re-implant it.

Lost or Damaged Fillings/Crowns

When a filling or crown falls out, it leaves the tooth exposed and vulnerable to further damage. We offer same-day solutions to repair or replace the filling or crown, ensuring your tooth remains protected.

Swelling or Infections

If you have swelling in your mouth, gums, or face, it could indicate an infection that requires urgent attention. Infections can spread quickly and become more dangerous, so prompt treatment is essential.

Mouth Injuries and Bleeding

Any injury that causes persistent bleeding in your mouth needs immediate care. We will stop the bleeding and assess any damage to your teeth and gums.

What To Do Before You Arrive

In some cases, you may need to take steps to protect your teeth before you can get to our clinic. Here’s what you can do:

For a Knocked-Out Tooth: Keep the tooth moist by placing it in milk or holding it in your mouth (in the cheek). Get to the dentist as quickly as possible for the best chance of saving the tooth.
For a Broken Tooth: To clean the region, rinse your mouth with warm water. To reduce swelling, apply a cold compress, and save any shattered teeth pieces.
For Severe Tooth Pain: Rinse your mouth with warm saltwater and take over-the-counter pain relief to manage discomfort until you can be seen.
For Lost Fillings or Crowns: Cover the exposed area with dental cement (available at most pharmacies) or sugarless gum to protect the tooth until your appointment.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I really don’t enjoy seeing a hygienist… I’ve had one or two bad experiences in the past but honestly Leah was superb… the best I’ve seen. Really took time to put me at ease, was caring, thoughtful and a fantastic bed side manner. Really happy with the service.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Super professional establishment with friendly staff who make you feel welcome each time. I was having issues with my front teeth moving and crumbling and so went to Zen House Dental to see what can be done.
I was not by any means expecting perfection, just something better than what I had, but perfection is exactly what I got.
I had some veneers and implants done. Now I cannot stop smiling.
Specifically, I cannot thank Dr.Eassun and his assistant Lauren enough for not only giving me a perfect smile but also oodles of confidence and also putting up with an occasional tantrum of mine. He stuck with me and made sure I was looked after and happy with the end result.
I am not just happy but over the moon and highly recommend this dental practice, but specifically, Dr.Eassun.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I can’t recommend Dr Shivali highly enough. From the very beginning, she has been incredibly patient and always happy to go at my pace, which made such a difference to my confidence and comfort. She took the time to clearly explain all of my options, was very informative throughout, and never once pushed any treatment that she didn’t genuinely feel would benefit my teeth repair and improvement journey.

My treatment started with a root canal, and from there all the way through to the end of my Invisalign treatment, Dr Shivali has been amazing. She’s not only highly skilled, but also so friendly and reassuring — she really puts you at ease and makes every appointment feel far less daunting.

If I ever need any more dental work in the future (hopefully not!), I wouldn’t hesitate to return to Dr Shivali at Zen. She will always be my first choice.

I also have to mention how welcoming the front reception team are — they’re always a pleasure to see and chat with, and they truly add to the positive experience every time I visit.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I’ve struggled to find a decent dentist near me for some time and I’m so pleased I have found Zen House. I had a hygienist appointment today by way of my own introduction to them and I couldn’t have been happier. The ‘house’ is beautiful, the receptionist warm and friendly and both the hygienist and nurse were so comforting, capable and made me feel at ease. They took the time to explain everything that was going on and how best to help me on my healthy teeth journey with great advice and tips. I feel very lucky to have found them and I look forward to my next appointment (who says that about a dentist?!)

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Very happy with my composite bonding with Dr Ashkay. Great attention to detail ensuring my teeth look very natural. I had an old cap on my front tooth that was loose leaving only a small amount of tooth and he managed to match this with my other teeth using composite. Great result thank you!
