Pain does not wait. Neither do we.

If you are in pain, have a broken tooth, swelling or an orthodontic appliance that is hurting you, call us. We always try to fit you in on the same day, in Almada, Fernão Ferro or Baixa da Banheira.

Out of hours

If it cannot wait until tomorrow, call SNS 24.

For situations that cannot wait until the next working day, contact SNS 24 — Portugal's national health line, available 24 hours a day.

During clinic hours, call us first so we can triage the urgency over the phone and book the earliest possible slot.

What we treat

What we treat as emergencies

  • Acute pain or pain that keeps you awake

    Deep decay, abscess, pulpitis — we start by relieving the pain, then we address the cause.

  • Trauma or a broken tooth

    Falls, sports accidents, fractures. The sooner you are seen, the greater the chance of saving the tooth.

  • Swelling, infection or fever

    Dental infections can become serious quickly. Do not wait for the weekend — call us.

  • An orthodontic appliance that is hurting

    Loose wires, detached brackets, broken aligners — we sort it there and then, without rescheduling your entire treatment.

  • Post-operative complications

    Bleeding, disproportionate pain, dry socket after an extraction — come in so we can assess you.

  • Children in pain

    In paediatric dentistry, any pain is a priority. We see children on the same day, with enough time to put them at ease.

How it works

How to request an emergency appointment

  1. Step 01

    Call the nearest clinic

    We answer the phone directly — no call centre. Describe what is happening and we will find the earliest available slot.

  2. Step 02

    Come at the time we agree

    Please bring an ID and, if possible, a photograph of the area. If you have had recent scans or X-rays, bring those too.

  3. Step 03

    Leave with a clear next step

    We rarely resolve everything in one appointment — but you will always leave with the pain under control and a clear plan ahead.
