Severe toothache, a swollen face, a knocked-out tooth or a tooth that just broke: these need a dentist today, not next week. Both Smile Dental clinics keep room for same-day emergency visits. We stop the pain first, make the tooth stable, and then explain what happened and what your options are.
An emergency visit costs ₹1,000 to ₹3,000. That covers the examination, the X-ray and the pain relief or stabilisation done that day. There is no emergency surcharge, and any follow-up treatment is quoted at our normal prices in a written plan before it starts.
Call before you come, so the doctor is ready for you:
- Kondapur: Monday to Saturday, 10 AM to 8 PM (2 to 5 PM by appointment), +91 7416 644 400
- Vizag: Monday to Saturday, 9 AM to 1 PM and 5 PM to 8:30 PM, +91 98491 32388
Both clinics are closed on Sunday.

Call us today if...
- "The tooth pain kept me awake and painkillers are not touching it."
- "My cheek or gum near a tooth has swollen up."
- "My child fell and a front tooth came out." (Time matters here: see what to do on the way, below.)
- "I bit on something hard and half the tooth broke off."
- "A tooth is loose or pushed out of place after a fall or a hit."
- "My crown or filling fell out and the tooth is sharp or sensitive."
- "The bleeding after an extraction has not slowed down."
These can wait for a regular appointment
- Mild sensitivity to hot or cold that comes and goes
- A small chip with no pain and no sharp edge
- A filling that feels slightly rough but does not hurt
- A routine cleaning or checkup
Not sure which one yours is? Call or send us a WhatsApp message. We would much rather tell you "that can wait for a normal appointment" than have you sit with pain you did not need to.
When a hospital comes first
If swelling spreads towards your eye or down your neck, if you find it hard to breathe or swallow, or if you have a high fever with the swelling, go to the nearest hospital emergency department straight away. They can treat a spreading infection on any day and at any hour, and we take over the dental part once you are settled.
When you call
- We ask a few questions about your symptoms to judge how urgent it is
- We tell you what to do before you arrive
- We give you a same-day time at the clinic nearest you
When you arrive
- Pain relief comes first. Numbing and calming the tooth happen before anything else
- Examination and X-ray to find the cause (for broken teeth and trauma, an iTero 3D scan when it helps)
- Stabilisation: a temporary filling, a splint for a loose tooth, or draining an abscess
- A clear explanation of what happened and what the options are
Before you leave
- The pain is under control
- The tooth is stable
- You have a written plan with prices for any follow-up treatment, so you can decide calmly at home
Most emergency visits take 30 to 60 minutes.
What to do on the way to us
Knocked-out adult tooth: Pick it up by the white crown, not the root. Rinse it gently in milk or clean water for a few seconds, without scrubbing. If you can, push it back into the socket and bite on a clean cloth. If not, keep it in a cup of milk. Reaching us within 30 minutes gives the tooth the strongest chance of taking.
Knocked-out baby tooth: Do not put it back. Bring your child in so we can check the adult tooth growing underneath.
Severe pain: Take a painkiller you have taken safely before, at the dose on the pack. Hold a cold pack on the outside of your cheek. Do not put aspirin on the gum, it burns the skin.
Broken tooth: Rinse with warm water, use a cold pack for swelling, and bring any broken pieces in a small container.
Bleeding: Bite firmly on clean gauze or a folded cloth for 20 minutes. If it has not slowed after that, come in straight away.
After the emergency visit
The emergency visit settles the pain and makes the tooth stable. Most teeth then need one follow-up treatment within days to a few weeks, such as a root canal, a crown, or, if a tooth cannot be kept, an implant or bridge. You leave with the timeline and the price for each option, so nothing is decided in a rush.
Take any medicine exactly as prescribed. If the pain comes back or the swelling grows after the visit, call us the same day.

Emergency visit: ₹1,000 to ₹3,000
The emergency visit covers the examination (the same ₹500 consultation as any visit), the X-ray (₹200 to ₹500) and the pain relief or stabilisation done that day. Where you land in the range depends mostly on what stabilising takes: a temporary filling sits at the lower end, draining an abscess or splinting a loose tooth at the upper end.
Treatment beyond that, such as a root canal, an extraction or a crown, is separate. It is quoted at our normal prices and written down before we start, and you can choose to have it another day.
There is no emergency surcharge.
Why we treat the pain first and decide the rest later
Big decisions made in pain are rarely good ones. So an emergency visit at Smile Dental has a narrow job: make you comfortable and make the tooth stable. The longer conversation about root canal, crown or implant happens once the pain has settled, with the X-ray and the written plan in front of you. Many teeth that come in as emergencies can be saved, and sorting it out early usually keeps the follow-up simpler and less expensive.
Who sees you
Smile Dental has looked after families in Hyderabad and Vizag since 1997 and is ISO 9001 certified.

Smile Dental Clinic Kondapur, on Masjid Banda Road, gives same-day emergency visits Monday to Saturday, 10 AM to 8 PM (2 to 5 PM by appointment). Call +91 7416 644 400 before you come so the doctor is ready.

Can I come in without an appointment?
For a real emergency, yes, but please call first so we can keep a chair and a doctor free for you. For concerns that are not urgent, booking a normal appointment gives you more unhurried time.
What if it happens on a Sunday or after hours?
Both clinics are closed on Sunday and after hours. Send us a WhatsApp message and we reply with what to do and the earliest slot when we open. If swelling spreads towards your eye or neck, or you find it hard to breathe or swallow, go to the nearest hospital emergency department straight away.
Will you pull my tooth out in an emergency?
Only if it is the right clinical choice and you agree. The first goal is pain relief and a stable tooth. Many teeth can be saved, and we talk through every option before anything permanent is done.
My child knocked out a tooth. What do I do?
If it is an adult tooth, hold it by the crown, rinse it gently, put it back in the socket or keep it in milk, and come in within 30 minutes if you can. If it is a baby tooth, do not put it back; bring your child in so we can check the adult tooth underneath.
My crown or filling fell out. Is that an emergency?
If the tooth hurts or has a sharp edge, come in the same day and we cover it with a temporary filling. If it does not hurt, keep the crown safe and book the next normal appointment; it can often be cemented back.
