Dental emergencies we treat for Washingborough patients
We regularly see patients from Washingborough and the surrounding lanes for problems that cannot wait for a routine appointment, including:

Getting to us from Washingborough
Washingborough sits just to the east of Lincoln, only around three miles away by road via the B653 and Lower Waddington Road. For most patients that is under ten minutes by car, so you can usually be seen far faster than waiting for an NHS 111 emergency slot. When you call, we will give you directions and parking guidance so you arrive with no fuss.
What to do while you wait
A few simple steps can keep you comfortable until your appointment:
- For pain, take paracetamol or ibuprofen at the normal recommended dose (follow the packet, and only if suitable for you).
- For a knocked-out adult tooth, hold it by the crown, do not scrub it, and keep it in milk or inside your cheek — then call us straight away.
- For swelling, rinse gently with warm salty water; do not put aspirin directly on the gum.
- Keep any broken pieces of tooth or a dislodged crown and bring them with you.

What should I do if I have knocked out a tooth?
