Yes. In England you do not register with a dentist the way you do with a GP. Many private practices see new patients for emergencies; the cards marked 'Sees non-registered patients' say so on their own websites. For NHS urgent care, contact NHS 111 online or by phone and you should be offered treatment within 24 hours or 7 days depending on your symptoms.

Go to A&E or call 999 if you have facial swelling affecting your eye or neck, swelling that makes it hard to breathe, swallow or speak, bleeding that will not stop after 10 minutes of pressure, or a serious injury to your face, mouth or teeth.

In England the NHS urgent dental charge is £27.90 from 1 April 2026, the same as Band 1, unless you are exempt. Follow-up work such as a filling or root canal is charged at Band 2 (£76.60).
