- Swelling: Apply a cold compress to the outside of your cheek
- Pain: Over-the-counter pain relief as directed, avoiding aspirin directly on the gum
Dr Mohammed Sohail Memon brings over 25 years of clinical and academic experience to our Bankstown clinic, including a PhD in jaw function and orofacial pain. This background helps when an emergency involves jaw pain or a damaged tooth, and our team will assess your situation and explain your options clearly. We are open Monday to Saturday at Suite 1, 1 Jacob Street, Bankstown, so you can get help close to home when you need it.
Our team treats urgent problems such as a cracked tooth, severe toothache and infection, and may recommend a root canal, a tooth extraction or a follow-up dental check-up after your emergency visit.
If you call early in the day, we are more likely to have an appointment available the same day. Call 02 9893 9044 or contact us and we will find the earliest suitable time.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is a broken tooth a dental emergency?
It can be. A broken tooth is an emergency if it causes pain, has sharp edges cutting your mouth, or exposes the nerve inside the tooth. Call our Bankstown clinic on 02 9893 9044 and we will assess how urgent it is.
Can I see an emergency dentist in Bankstown on the same day?
Often, yes. We offer emergency appointments Monday to Saturday at Suite 1, 1 Jacob Street, Bankstown, and same-day appointments are subject to availability. Call us as early as you can and we will find the earliest suitable time.
What should I do with a knocked-out tooth?
Pick the tooth up by the crown (the white part), not the root. If it is dirty, rinse it briefly with milk or saline, not tap water, and avoid scrubbing it. For an adult tooth, try to place it back in the socket if you can, or keep it in milk. See a dentist as soon as possible, ideally within 30 to 60 minutes. Do not put a knocked-out baby tooth back in. Still call us so we can check your child.
Does health insurance cover emergency dental work?
Often partly, under extras cover, but this depends on your fund and policy. Check with your health fund and call our clinic before your visit so we can explain what is involved.
What if it is after hours or the clinic is closed?
If you have swelling that makes it hard to breathe or swallow, go to your nearest hospital emergency department. For other dental emergencies, call 02 9893 9044 when we reopen and we will give your call priority.
How much does emergency dental treatment cost?
The cost depends on the treatment you need. Call our clinic on 02 9893 9044, tell us what is happening, and we will explain your options and an estimate before treatment begins.
Do you treat dental emergencies for children?
Yes. We see children for dental emergencies, including knocked-out or broken baby and adult teeth. Call us as soon as it happens so we can advise you on what to do next.
