How to get NHS emergency dental treatment

A dental emergency means that you need urgent assistance for a serious problem in your mouth.

This could be caused by things such as infection and dental injury.

Common emergency dental problems include:

  • severe toothache where painkillers have not helped
  • bleeding after a tooth extraction
  • visible swelling of the neck or face
  • knocked-out teeth

If you are registered at this dentist as an NHS patient, please call us on 01443 842301

If you are registered with another NHS dentist, please contact your dental practice directly for an emergency appointment.

If you are not registered with an NHS dentist, please visit the NHS 111 Wales website for more information, or call Cwm Taf Morgannwg University Health Board’s Emergency Dental Helpline on 0300 123 5060.

Sut i gael triniaeth ddeintyddol frys y GIG

Mae argyfwng deintyddol yn golygu bod angen cymorth brys arnoch ar gyfer problem ddifrifol yn eich ceg.

Gallai hyn gael ei achosi gan bethau fel haint neu anaf deintyddol.

Mae problemau deintyddol brys cyffredin yn cynnwys:

  • dannoedd ddifrifol lle nad yw cyffuriau lladd poen wedi helpu
  • gwaedu ar ôl tynnu dannedd
  • chwyddo gweladwy yn y gwddf neu’r wyneb
  • dannedd wedi’u bwrw allan

Os ydych wedi’ch cofrestru gyda’r deintydd hwn fel claf y GIG, ffoniwch ni ar 01443 842301

Os ydych wedi cofrestru gyda deintydd y GIG arall, cysylltwch â’ch practis deintyddol yn uniongyrchol am apwyntiad brys.

Os nad ydych wedi cofrestru gyda deintydd y GIG, ewch i wefan GIG 111 Cymru i gael rhagor o wybodaeth, neu ffoniwch Linell Gymorth Ddeintyddol Brys Bwrdd Iechyd Prifysgol Cwm Taf Morgannwg ar 0300 123 5060.

Friendly and very professional Dentist. I used to be petrified of visiting the dentist and now I can honestly say I feel relaxed, comfortable and reassured that I am going to receive the best treatment for my needs. Many thanks.

A very caring and considerate dentist who has given me faith in trusting a dentist again. He always talks through my care and options available. Couldn’t ask for better!

Fantastic staff, nice environment, welcoming and relaxing. I recently had anti-wrinkle treatments and they were fab! I feel ten years younger. Will be back soon and will definitely recommend you to my friends and family.
