Fast, Expert Care When You Need It Most
Dental emergencies rarely happen at a convenient time. Whether you're experiencing severe tooth pain, a broken tooth, swelling, or a dental injury, prompt treatment can relieve discomfort and improve the chances of saving your tooth.
At the American Medical & Dental Center, we provide emergency dentistry in Dubai for children and adults. Our priority is to diagnose the problem quickly, relieve your pain, and provide the treatment you need as soon as possible.
What Is Emergency Dentistry?
Emergency dentistry focuses on the diagnosis and treatment of urgent dental problems that require immediate attention. While some dental issues can wait for a routine appointment, others become more serious if left untreated.
Common dental emergencies include:
Severe or persistent toothache- Knocked-out (avulsed) tooth
- Broken, chipped, or fractured teeth
- Swelling of the gums, face, or jaw
- Lost fillings, crowns, or bridges causing pain
- Injuries to the teeth or soft tissues of the mouth
If you're unsure whether your situation is an emergency, it's always best to contact our clinic. Our team can advise you on the next steps and arrange an urgent appointment if needed.

What to Expect
When you arrive, our team will first assess your symptoms and examine the affected area. Depending on your condition, digital X-rays may be taken to identify the underlying cause and help us determine the most appropriate treatment.
The first priority is to relieve pain and stabilise the problem. Depending on the diagnosis, treatment may include repairing a broken tooth, treating an infection, performing root canal therapy, replacing a lost restoration, or extracting a tooth if it cannot be saved.
If additional treatment is required, we'll explain your options, answer your questions, and create a clear plan for the next steps.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Book Appointment
What should I do if my tooth is knocked out?
Hold the tooth by the crown, not the root, gently rinse it if it's dirty, and try to place it back into the socket. If that's not possible, keep it in milk or saliva and seek emergency dental care immediately. The sooner you receive treatment, the greater the chance of saving the tooth.
Should I go to the emergency room or a dentist?
For toothache, broken teeth, lost fillings or a knocked-out tooth, contact a dentist first. Go to a hospital emergency department if you have heavy bleeding that won't stop, swelling that affects your breathing or swallowing, a high fever, or a suspected jaw fracture.
Can a toothache wait until my next appointment?
A mild, short-lived ache may be able to wait a few days, but pain that is severe, persistent, keeps you awake or comes with swelling or fever should be seen as soon as possible. If you're unsure, call us and we'll advise you.
