Tooth pain and urgent treatment
Tooth pain never waits for a convenient moment. The key is knowing what can wait a few days and what cannot: throbbing pain at night, a swollen cheek or fever mean an infection that needs a dentist immediately, not next week.
Below you will find guides to fillings, root canal treatment and extractions, answers to common questions and real prices. In Prague, emergency dental care is available at the clinic on Vladislavova street; elsewhere ask at the nearest hospital.
Treatment guides
Root canal treatment (endodontics)
Removing the infected pulp, disinfecting and filling the canals. It saves the tooth from extraction.
Tooth extraction
Pulling a tooth that cannot be saved. Surgical or standard. A basic procedure at most practices.
Treating tooth decay (fillings)
Drilling out the decay and filling it with white composite or amalgam. A basic treatment at every practice.
