Your emergency dentist is already in the village

This page is for anyone in Deepcar, Stubbin, Carr Road or the streets off Manchester Road who has a tooth that has finally had enough. No registration is needed. Ring 0114 288 2121, say what is happening, and we will find you the earliest slot that day. Around eight in ten of our emergency patients are treated on the day they phone.

Most of the village can walk here, so something that starts throbbing at 7.45am can be looked at before the school run is over. From Bolsterstone or the far end of the village it is a few minutes by car, with free parking at the door. We are open seven days a week, including most bank holidays, and overnight the emergency line is answered personally by Dr Ibraheem Ijaz, the principal dentist.

NHS 111, A&E or a village practice: the honest picture

Deepcar sits in the far north-west of Sheffield, and the NHS urgent dental route here is the same as for the rest of the city: NHS 111 by phone or online. NHS South Yorkshire is open about the fact that urgent appointments are not available 24 hours a day and that you may need to travel to reach one. Charles Clifford Dental Hospital on Wellesley Road, beside the Hallamshire, runs a free weekday urgent clinic staffed by supervised students, in the morning and early afternoon, roughly 25 minutes from Deepcar.

A&E is for a different kind of problem. Northern General Hospital on Herries Road, about 20 minutes from the village, is the right place if swelling is spreading towards the eye or under the jaw, if swallowing or breathing feels harder than usual, or if bleeding will not stop after half an hour of firm pressure on gauze. Toothache on its own, however fierce, does not meet the threshold for A&E and you will usually be told to find a dentist. Our guide to what counts as a dental emergency draws the line in plain terms.

Finding us on Manchester Road

The practice is on Manchester Road, the old main road that threads the length of the village between Wharncliffe Side and Stocksbridge, on the Stubbin side of Deepcar. From the Stocksbridge end, keep on Manchester Road past the Carr Road turning for Fox Glen woods and we are a short distance further on. From the Sheffield side, come through Wharncliffe Side on the A6102, which turns into Manchester Road as you enter Deepcar.

Buses are straightforward. The Stagecoach 57 and 57a, the Stocksbridge Flyer, stop on Manchester Road within a short walk of the door, running towards Hillsborough and Sheffield in one direction and Stocksbridge in the other. Deepcar lost its passenger station in 1959, so the bus is the only public transport in the village; the nearest tram is the Middlewood terminus. The surgeries are on the ground floor with level access from the car park.

The first fifteen minutes after you arrive

You will have a 15-minute emergency examination with any X-rays needed, and the dentist will tell you what is wrong before anything else happens. If the tooth can be settled that day, it usually is: a temporary dressing, drainage of an abscess, the first stage of a root canal or an extraction. Nothing starts until you have a written price and have agreed to it. The full sequence is set out on our same-day emergency appointment page.

What Deepcar neighbours usually come in with

Deepcar is a working village with a lot of long-standing fillings, and the emergencies follow that pattern. The three we see most often:

  • A big old filling that has finally given way, leaving a sharp edge or a hole that catches food. See lost filling.
  • A tooth that hurts when you bite and eases the moment you let go, which very often turns out to be a crack. See pain when biting.
  • A wisdom tooth gum flap that has flared after a cold or a run of late shifts. See pericoronitis.

Cold sensitivity that lingers for more than half a minute after the cold has gone deserves an examination too, because it points to the nerve rather than the enamel. The nerve inside a tooth lives in a space about the width of a hair, so once it is inflamed there is nowhere for the swelling to go, which is why the pain builds so fast.

What it costs to be seen

The emergency examination is £30 including X-rays. Treatment is priced separately and agreed in writing before it starts, and there is an additional out-of-hours charge after 6pm on weekdays and at weekends. Starting prices for the common treatments are on the emergency dental fees page.

Questions, answered

Questions from Deepcar patients

Can I just walk in from the village without phoning first?

You can, but a call is better. Emergency slots are held each day and a quick phone call lets us put you in the right one rather than waiting in reception.

Is there an NHS emergency dentist in Deepcar?

No. There is no NHS urgent dental centre in Deepcar or Stocksbridge. NHS 111 will direct you to the nearest available NHS appointment, which may be some distance away. We are private and see anyone, registered or not.

Which A&E should Deepcar residents use for a dental emergency?

Northern General Hospital on Herries Road, about 20 minutes away, for adults with spreading facial swelling, difficulty swallowing or bleeding that will not stop. Children go to Sheffield Children's Hospital on Western Bank. For toothache without those signs, a dentist is the right place.

Does anyone answer the phone at night?

Yes. Outside 8am to 8pm the emergency line is answered personally by Dr Ijaz. He can talk you through what to do overnight and book the first slot in the morning.

My child has knocked a tooth out playing in the garden. What do I do?

If it is an adult tooth, hold it by the crown, rinse it briefly in milk if it is dirty and put it back in the socket if you can. If not, keep it in milk and come straight down; the first hour matters most. Baby teeth are never put back. Our knocked-out tooth guide walks you through it.

I called Friday evening to see if they had emergency appointments due to serious tooth pain. They were very polite and willing to accommodate. Due to me being a 45-minute drive away — the closest dentist I could find on Google that was open — they assured me they would see me when I got there. Upon arrival the staff were so polite and welcoming. The expertise and advice before the procedure was amazing. Definitely worth the trip to get the pain away. 100% recommend them.

Dr Ibrahim helped me today with a difficult extraction. He is my hero for the dedication, skill and professionalism shown today. It was a tough one but wow. I was in so much pain and he saved me from it. I am eternally grateful to him. Just brilliant.

Visited today for a private emergency appointment. The practice was very clean and tidy, the staff very friendly and helpful. They really listened to my concerns and put me at ease. Addressed the problem and extracted my tooth — nothing was too much trouble. Swift service — top notch.
