Very friendly and extremely helpful staff, needed an emergency appointment and they managed to fit me in on the same day. Dentist was lovely, explained treatment and dealt with problem efficiently.
If you are experiencing a dental emergency contact Kreate Dental to book an urgent appointment. Our friendly team can advise you over the phone on how to manage any discomfort and preserve your tooth while you are waiting to see a dentist.
If your emergency is during working hours, call our Rugby, Dartford or Gravesend practice as early as possible. Our emergency appointments are designed to treat severe toothache and get your teeth in a stable condition until permanent treatment can be arranged.
Fast, gentle treatment for urgent dental problems:
Toothache can start small and suddenly take over everything. If your mouth is sore, throbbing, or sensitive to hot and cold, it’s a clear sign something’s not right - and it won’t fix itself.
We’ll help you find the cause and stop the pain quickly.
Before your appointment:
If you’ve been told you need a root canal - or think you might - it usually means infection has reached the centre of the tooth. This can cause deep pain, pressure, or swelling.
It sounds serious, but root canal treatment is a routine way to save your tooth and prevent things getting worse.
Before your visit:
Pain at the back of your mouth can make everyday things feel uncomfortable. Swollen gums, tenderness, or pain when opening your mouth could mean your wisdom teeth are impacted or infected.
This is a common problem - and one we deal with every day.
A broken tooth can be painful or just annoying - but either way, it needs attention. Sharp edges, exposed nerves, or sudden cracks can all lead to bigger problems if left untreated.
We’ll assess the damage and give you the right fix.
In the meantime:
Whether it came out suddenly or has been working loose for a while, losing a tooth can be a real worry. But quick action makes all the difference.
If it’s just happened:
If your denture has cracked, chipped, or stopped fitting properly, it can feel like your whole day is off balance. We know how important it is to get things sorted quickly and discreetly.
What to do for now:
When you arrive, your dentist will start by reviewing your medical and dental history before carefully examining the area that’s causing concern. If needed, they’ll take X-rays to get a clearer picture of the problem.
The priority is always to relieve your discomfort and stabilise the issue. Once the immediate pain is under control, your dentist will talk you through any follow-up treatment options and answer any questions you might have.
Our goal is simple - to get you out of pain fast and protect your long-term dental health.

We aim to offer same-day appointments. Call us as early in the day as possible for the best chance of securing a slot.
Hold the tooth by the crown (not the root), rinse gently, and try to place it back in the socket. If that’s not possible, store it in milk and contact us immediately.
