When an unexpected dental issue disrupts your day, having access to compassionate, same-day care is essential. If you have a dental emergency and live in or around Hervey Bay, call Viva Family Dental. We prioritise same-day emergency dental appointments, ensuring you receive prompt attention. We also guarantee same-day appointments when booked before midday, Monday to Friday.
Delaying treatment for a dental emergency can escalate pain or even risk your long-term oral health – especially when your dental issue makes eating, drinking, or even sleeping uncomfortable. Our team is here to ensure you get the care you need before it becomes a bigger issue. Let’s get you back to feeling like yourself again, and call us without delay.
A tooth that has been completely dislodged requires urgent care to attempt reattachment.
Tooth fractures that expose a nerve can result in intense pain and sensitivity, while also increasing your risk of infection.
If your toothache persists despite medication, it could indicate an underlying issue such as a cavity, infection, or nerve damage. Symptoms often include sharp or throbbing pain, sensitivity to hot or cold, and swelling.
A lost filling or crown can leave your tooth exposed, causing discomfort and increasing the risk of further damage.
A bacterial infection near the tooth root or gums can lead to a pus-filled abscess, causing intense pain, swelling, a bitter taste in the mouth, and sometimes a fever.
Ongoing bleeding, particularly after surgery, could indicate complications with healing or underlying clotting disorders. Our emergency dentists will assess any cuts, tears, or excessive bleeding in the gums, lips, or cheeks.
Often caused by an infection or abscess in the mouth, facial swelling can impact your jaw or gums, leading to pain, warmth, tenderness, and sometimes fever.
When in doubt, it’s always best to contact our Hervey Bay emergency dentists. Early intervention can prevent complications and ensure the best outcome for you.
Depending on the cause, treatment options may involve fillings, root canals, drainage, or other restorative procedures to alleviate discomfort and address the root problem.
We don’t want cost to stand in the way of your dental care, so we’ve got plenty of flexible payment options to make things easier. As a preferred provider for NIB, its subsidiaries, smile.com.au, and HCF, we’ll help you get the most out of your health insurance. Need a payment plan? Choose Denticare or Afterpay (for treatments up to $2,000), or ask about our in-house plans for more extensive treatments. We’ll work with you to find a solution that fits your budget, so you can focus on your smile – not the bill.
Our Hervey Bay clinic is equipped to help with urgent dental care, no matter how minor you might think it is. From severe toothaches to unexpected trauma, our advanced digital X-rays allow us to quickly pinpoint the problem, providing an accurate diagnosis and the right treatment to resolve your issue.
For particularly anxious patients, we offer oral sedation to relieve any discomfort.
In the rare instance that we can’t see you immediately, our team will assess your situation and suggest targeted tooth pain management over the phone until your appointment.
