Emergencies

Dental emergencies or same-day appointments are available on request.

During opening hours:

If you urgently require an appointment during normal surgery hours, please call 020 8205 5636 or 020 8205 0337, and every effort will be made to see you as soon as possible.

At Colindale Dental, we ensure that every patient has individual attention, plenty of time and a first-class service experience. We will do our best to help you with the emergency dental treatment you require. Colindale Dental has provided extensive emergency dental treatments for over 25 years.

Any dental emergency, like an injury to the teeth or gums, can be potentially serious and should not be ignored. Ignoring a dental problem can increase the risk of permanent damage and the need for more extensive and expensive treatment down the road.

Out-of-hours/weekend/bank holiday cover:

If you have a problem outside our normal opening hours, call us, and our answer-phone message will tell you how to contact the on-call dentist and out-of-hours emergency services.

Private patients

For private registered patients, Colindale Dental offers a weekend call-out service for dental emergencies that cannot wait until we re-open.

Call us, and the dentist will contact you as soon as they become available.

NHS patients

Please call Emergency Dental Services at 020 3594 0938, where you will be directed to a dentist in the local area who will provide cover for dental emergencies on that day.

For NHS patients, out-of-hours emergency care and advice can be accessed 24 hours a day via NHS Choices on 111. You can also contact the NHS Choices website at www.nhs.uk.
