Quick answer
If you have a toothache, a broken tooth or a lost filling or crown in Seoul, message us with a photo or call +82 2-3273-7528. During opening hours (Mon–Fri 9:00–17:00, Sat 9:00–14:00) we keep time to see travellers the same day. If swelling spreads to your eye or neck, or you have trouble breathing or a high fever, call 119.
What we can help with
- Toothache and sudden sensitivity
- Chipped or broken teeth (same-day bonding or a same-day crown is often possible)
- Lost fillings or crowns
- Swollen or painful gums and wisdom tooth pain
- A dental problem that started before your trip and got worse
What to do before you get here
- Toothache: rinse with warm water and take a painkiller you normally use. Don't put aspirin directly on the gum.
- Broken tooth: keep any pieces, rinse gently and chew on the other side.
- Lost crown: keep it and bring it with you. Don't glue it back yourself.
- Knocked-out tooth: hold it by the top, not the root, keep it in milk or inside your cheek and come straight away. The first hour matters most.
When to call 119 instead
Call 119, Korea's free emergency number, if swelling spreads to your eye or neck, you have trouble breathing or swallowing, a high fever, bleeding that won't stop, or a facial injury from an accident.

Questions patients ask
How much does emergency dental care cost?
It depends on what you need. An examination is ₩27,000 and a panoramic X-ray ₩18,000 when booked online. Bonding a chipped tooth starts at ₩75,000 and a same-day crown is ₩520,000. We confirm the fee before treatment.
Can I be seen today?
Usually, yes, if you contact us during opening hours. Send a photo by chat and we'll tell you the earliest time we can see you.
Will my travel insurance pay?
Many policies cover emergency dental treatment for sudden pain. Keep your receipt and ask us for the documents your insurer needs.
Can you fix a broken tooth in one visit?
Often, yes. Small chips can be bonded the same day, and a same-day ceramic crown can be made in the clinic in one appointment.
Are you open on Sundays?
No. The clinic is closed on Sundays and Korean public holidays. Leave a chat message, call the 1330 helpline, or go to a hospital emergency room if it is severe.
