When you call 111, they will triage your symptoms and connect you with the Inverclyde Out of Hours Dental Service or direct you to the nearest open urgent dental clinic (typically based at Inverclyde Royal Hospital in Greenock or a designated out-of-hours hub).

What You Should Do:

  • Call NHS 24 on 111: Free to call from any mobile or landline.

  • Have your details ready: They will ask for your current address/location, GP, and a description of your symptoms.

When to Go Straight to A&E / Call 999:

Head directly to the nearest Emergency Department (such as Inverclyde Royal Hospital) or call 999 if you experience:

  • Severe swelling that is affecting your breathing, swallowing, or eye

  • Heavy or uncontrollable bleeding after an extraction or injury

  • Facial trauma, such as a suspected broken jaw

For severe pain while you wait for a response, over-the-counter painkillers like paracetamol or ibuprofen (if safe for you to take) can help manage discomfort.

At The Waterfront Clinic, we understand that dental emergencies can be both painful and distressing. That’s why we’re committed to providing swift, professional, and compassionate care to address your urgent dental needs.
