Understanding the service
What counts as a dental emergency in Koramangala?
A knocked-out permanent tooth, displaced tooth, facial trauma, uncontrolled bleeding and rapidly increasing swelling need urgent action. Severe tooth pain, a broken tooth, lost restoration or painful wisdom tooth also deserve prompt dental assessment, although the required timing and setting differ.
Facial swelling with breathing or swallowing difficulty can threaten the airway. Call 112 or attend the nearest emergency department. Head injury, loss of consciousness, major facial wounds or suspected jaw fracture also need medical emergency assessment.
Telephone triage cannot provide a definitive diagnosis. The clinic will ask when the problem began, what caused it, whether swelling is spreading and whether there are medical conditions or medicines that change bleeding, infection or healing risk.
Swelling, fever or severe pain
Infection can spread. Breathing, swallowing and systemic symptoms determine whether medical emergency care is needed.
Broken tooth or uncontrolled bleeding
Protect the area, use clean pressure for bleeding and obtain urgent professional assessment.

Informed decisions
First aid before urgent dental care
For a knocked-out permanent tooth, hold it by the crown rather than the root. If it is dirty, rinse it gently without scrubbing. If immediate reinsertion is not possible, keep it moist in milk or an appropriate tooth-preservation medium and go to a dentist immediately. Keep the clinic telephone number accessible and know the nearest emergency department. For sports and travel, a small kit with clean gauze, a suitable tooth-storage container and basic medical details can reduce delay. First aid protects tissues while professional care is arranged; it does not determine the diagnosis.
- For a cracked tooth, rinse gently with warm water and use a cold compress outside the face for swelling.
- For bleeding, apply steady pressure with clean gauze; persistent or heavy bleeding needs urgent assessment.
- Do not put aspirin on gums, probe with sharp objects or rely on messaging when symptoms are escalating.
Important: Call India’s emergency number 112 or go to the nearest emergency department for breathing or swallowing difficulty, rapidly spreading neck or facial swelling, loss of consciousness, major facial trauma or severe uncontrolled bleeding. WhatsApp is not monitored as an emergency service.

Questions patients ask
Dental emergency FAQs for Koramangala patients
Should I call or send a WhatsApp message?
Call for urgent dental problems. Do not use WhatsApp for emergencies or airway symptoms.
What should I do with a knocked-out permanent tooth?
Handle the crown, keep it moist and reach a dentist immediately because time affects the chance of saving it.
Should a baby tooth be put back in its socket?
No. Reinserting a baby tooth can damage the developing permanent tooth; obtain urgent dental advice.
Is facial swelling always a dental emergency?
It requires prompt assessment, and breathing or swallowing difficulty requires emergency medical care.
Can an emergency visit finish all treatment?
Sometimes. Other cases need stabilisation, imaging, staged treatment or specialist or hospital referral.
Should I take leftover antibiotics?
No. They may be inappropriate and do not replace drainage, restoration or other definitive dental care.
