Frequently Asked Questions

How do I schedule an emergency dental appointment?

To schedule an emergency dental appointment at Mackay Dental Clinic, simply give us a call at 7777777777. Our friendly receptionist will assist you in finding a convenient time for your visit.

What should I do if I have a toothache?

If you have a toothache, rinse your mouth with warm water and gently floss around the affected tooth to remove any debris. Avoid applying aspirin directly to the tooth or gums, as this can cause irritation. Contact Mackay Dental Clinic immediately, and we will prioritize your emergency appointment.

Can you help with a broken or chipped tooth?

Yes, we can help with a broken or chipped tooth. If possible, gently rinse your mouth with warm water and place a cold compress on the affected area to reduce swelling. Avoid chewing on the broken tooth, and contact Mackay Dental Clinic as soon as possible for an emergency appointment.

What should I do if a tooth gets knocked out?

If a tooth gets knocked out, handle it by the crown (top part) and rinse it gently with water, taking care not to remove any attached tissue fragments. If possible, try to place the tooth back into its socket, but do not force it. If you can’t reinsert the tooth, keep it moist by placing it in a container of milk or saliva, and contact Mackay Dental Clinic immediately for an emergency appointment.
