Calm Assessment
We take time to understand your symptoms and examine the area properly, so you are not left guessing about the likely cause of the pain or damage.
Emergency Dental Care
If you have toothache, swelling, a broken tooth or another urgent dental concern, it is sensible to get advice promptly. Keep Smiling Dental Practice offers calm, practical emergency dental care from our Westbourne Grove clinic, helping you understand what is happening and what needs to be done next.
A dental emergency can be painful, distracting and difficult to judge. Some problems need prompt treatment, while others may need advice, temporary care and a planned follow-up. The safest first step is to speak to a dental team who can help you understand the level of urgency.
When you contact Keep Smiling Dental Practice, we will ask what has happened, where the discomfort is, how long it has been present and whether there is swelling, bleeding, trauma or a broken restoration. This helps us guide you towards the right appointment and advise you on what to do in the meantime.
Emergency dental care is not only about relieving pain. It is also about identifying the cause, protecting the tooth where possible and deciding whether you need immediate treatment, a temporary measure or further restorative care.
Our practice on Westbourne Grove is convenient for people in Notting Hill, Bayswater, Kensington, Holland Park and nearby West London areas who need calm, practical advice for an urgent dental problem.
When something feels wrong, clear communication matters. We focus on assessing the problem carefully, explaining what we can see and helping you make a sensible decision about treatment.

Urgent dental problems can have different causes, even when the symptoms feel similar. An assessment helps identify what is happening and what kind of care is most appropriate.
Toothache can come from decay, cracks, gum inflammation, infection or pressure around a tooth. Assessment helps identify the source and the treatment needed to reduce symptoms.
Request an urgent appointmentA broken tooth may feel sharp, sensitive or unstable. We can check how much tooth structure remains and advise whether smoothing, bonding, a filling, a crown or further care is needed.
