Key takeaways
- For a dental emergency in Pune, call the clinic and describe the problem rather than booking online, so you can be prioritised.
- We are open all 7 days, 10 AM to 8 PM, including Sundays and most public holidays. We are not a 24-hour clinic.
- For a knocked-out adult tooth, keep it in milk and get to a dentist within about an hour for the best chance of saving it.
- For uncontrolled bleeding, spreading facial swelling, or trouble breathing or swallowing, go to a hospital emergency department.
A dental emergency, a sudden severe toothache, a swelling, a tooth knocked out or broken, is frightening, and it always seems to happen in the evening or on a Sunday. Prudent Dental Care Clinic in Viman Nagar, east Pune, is open every day of the week, 10:00 AM – 8:00 PM, led by Dr. Puja Bansal, BDS, and we keep time aside for urgent problems. If you are in pain now, the fastest thing you can do is call.
Signs it should not wait
Call the clinic the same day if you have any of these:
- Severe or throbbing toothache that painkillers are not controlling
- Swelling of the gum, face or jaw, especially if it is spreading
- A tooth that has been knocked out, pushed out of position, or badly broken
- Bleeding that will not stop after an extraction or an injury
- A dental abscess (a painful pimple on the gum, often with a bad taste)
- A lost filling or crown that has left a sharp or painful tooth
Book a normal appointment
These are worth seeing us about, but they are not usually emergencies:
- Mild sensitivity to hot, cold or sweet foods
- A small chip with no pain and no sharp edge
- A dull ache that comes and goes
- Food catching between teeth
- A check-up, cleaning or a filling you have been meaning to book
For these, use the online booking form or call during clinic hours and we will find you a convenient slot.
What to do right now
Simple first aid can make a real difference while you get to the clinic. It does not replace treatment, but it can ease pain and, in the case of a knocked-out tooth, protect your chance of saving it.
Knocked-out tooth
Hold it by the crown, not the root. Rinse briefly with milk or clean water if dirty, then either slot it back into the socket and bite on a clean cloth, or keep it in a cup of milk. Get to a dentist within about an hour if you can. Time matters most here.
Severe toothache
Rinse with warm salty water and take your usual painkiller at the normal dose, following the packet. Avoid very hot, cold or sweet food on that side. Do not hold an aspirin against the gum, it burns the tissue. See our guide to a toothache at night.
Broken or chipped tooth
Save any pieces in milk if you can. Rinse your mouth with warm water, and if there is a sharp edge, a little orthodontic wax or sugar-free gum over it protects your tongue and cheek until we see you.
Swelling of the face or gum
A spreading facial swelling is the one to take seriously. Call us straight away during our hours. If it is spreading fast towards your eye or throat, or you are struggling to breathe or swallow, do not wait for a dentist, go to a hospital emergency department. Our full guide covers what to do in a dental emergency.
Open 7 days, and honest about the hours we are not
Most dental clinics in Pune take a weekday half-day and close on Sunday, which is exactly when working people are free and when problems tend to surface. We are open all seven days, 10:00 AM – 8:00 PM, including Sundays and most public holidays, so a Saturday-night toothache does not have to wait until Monday.
We will be straight with you about what we are not: we are not a 24-hour clinic. If it is the middle of the night and you have uncontrolled bleeding, a swelling spreading towards the eye or throat, or trouble breathing or swallowing, that is a medical emergency, go to a hospital emergency department, not a dental clinic. For everything within our hours, call +91 70287 22200 and we will help.
