What Affects the Price

NHS vs private. NHS urgent care is £27.90 for the assessment and immediate treatment to relieve pain. Private emergency appointments range from £100 to £300 for the visit, with treatment on top.

Out of hours. Evening, weekend and bank-holiday appointments cost more privately. NHS 111 directs you to urgent NHS dental care.

What to Know

For severe pain, facial swelling, bleeding that will not stop, or a knocked-out tooth, seek same-day care. A knocked-out adult tooth should be kept moist (in milk or saliva) and re-implanted as soon as possible.

NHS urgent dental care is available through NHS 111 even if you are not registered with a dentist. Private practices often keep emergency slots but charge a premium.
