Emergency Dentist in Side, Antalya: Help When You Are in Pain

Rinse gently with warm salty water, keep your head raised when you lie down, and avoid very hot, very cold and sugary things and chewing on that side. A painkiller you would normally take, used exactly as its packet says, can take the edge off. Never hold aspirin against the gum, it burns the tissue. Painkillers only mask the cause, so message us on WhatsApp at any hour and you will be offered the earliest slot.

For a permanent adult tooth, pick it up by the crown, the part you normally see, and never by the root. Do not scrub it and do not wrap it in tissue. If it is dirty, rinse it briefly in milk. Put it back in the socket if you can and bite gently on a clean cloth; otherwise keep it in milk or in your own saliva. Get to a dentist as fast as you can, and message us on the way.

Sometimes it can simply be cemented back on, and sometimes the tooth underneath has to be rebuilt first. Only an examination tells you which. Keep the crown or veneer somewhere safe and bring it with you, do not stick it back with household glue or a shop-bought repair kit, and do not chew on that side. The tooth underneath can be sensitive to air and cold. Send a photo on WhatsApp.

Facial swelling from a tooth is not something to sleep on. Go straight to a hospital emergency department if the swelling is closing your eye, spreading down your neck or under your jaw, or if you have trouble swallowing, breathing or opening your mouth, or a high fever. Otherwise message us on WhatsApp with a photo, say when the swelling started and whether it is growing, and you will be offered the earliest slot we have.

The chairs run Monday to Saturday, 09:00‑19:00, and the day is usually booked in advance, so turning up unannounced can mean a long wait or a wasted trip. Message on WhatsApp first, even ten minutes before you set off. It is answered at any hour, your pain is weighed against the day's list, and you are given the earliest slot available. The clinic is closed on Sundays, but WhatsApp is not.

Yes. Many holiday emergencies turn out to be old fillings, crowns or implants placed somewhere else that have failed at the wrong moment. You will be told plainly what is wrong with the work and what the sensible options are, including leaving it alone until you are home. Our written guarantee, 10 years on implants and 5 years on crowns and veneers, covers work done here, not work done elsewhere.

We do not publish figures for emergency work, because until the tooth has been looked at nobody honestly knows whether it needs a filling, root canal treatment or removal, and an invented range would only mislead you. Send photos on WhatsApp: your case is reviewed and you get a written treatment plan with the price for your case, within 24 hours, before anything is started.

Cabin pressure changes can make an inflamed or infected tooth much more painful in the air, and an abscess is far better dealt with on the ground than mid-flight. If you have swelling, throbbing pain or a broken tooth and a flight coming up, get it looked at before you travel. Send a photo on WhatsApp and say when you fly, so the slot fits around it.
