What counts as a dental emergency?
A dental emergency is a problem that needs prompt assessment because of pain, injury, swelling or damage to a tooth or restoration. Severe toothache, a knocked or broken tooth, a lost filling or crown, and swelling are reasons to contact a dentist for advice. Facial swelling that affects breathing or swallowing needs urgent medical attention.
Describe your symptoms and when they began when you contact us. We will advise on arranging an appointment during practice hours, then assess the problem in person. The cause and appropriate treatment can only be determined after an examination.
How do I get from Little Falls to the practice?
Dr Chalita le Roux Inc is at Unit 2 Amorosa Office Park, Amorosa, Roodepoort, near Little Falls. From Little Falls, take Hendrik Potgieter Road towards Amorosa and follow the route to Amorosa Office Park. It is a short drive; allow for traffic and check your route before setting off.
Being close by can make it easier to attend an assessment and any follow-up that is needed. Dr Chalita le Roux, BChD cum laude from the University of Pretoria and an SAAAD member, provides personalised care from consultation through treatment.
What happens at an urgent dental appointment?
Dr le Roux will ask about your symptoms and dental history, examine the affected area and, where appropriate, take diagnostic images. This helps identify the likely cause and whether the problem involves a tooth, gum, restoration or injury. We assess this in person rather than diagnosing from a message or photograph alone.
You will be given an explanation of the findings and the suitable options, including any risks and aftercare. Depending on the assessment, the immediate priority may be to relieve the problem, protect a damaged tooth or plan further treatment. The right approach depends on your clinical needs.
Can a crown or veneer be completed in one visit?
Our digital workflow combines digital scanning with CEREC CAD/CAM technology to design and make certain restorations at the practice. Many suitable crowns and veneers can be completed in a single visit, which may mean less time away from work and fewer trips than a process requiring separate appointments for laboratory work.
Same-day treatment is not suitable for every tooth or case. The material, condition of the tooth, bite, complexity and clinical findings all matter. Dr le Roux will assess this in person and explain whether this workflow is appropriate for you.
What should I do while waiting for an appointment?
Keep the area clean and avoid chewing on a damaged tooth. If a tooth has been knocked out, handle it by the crown rather than the root and contact a dentist promptly for advice. Do not place aspirin or other medication directly on a tooth or gum, as this can injure the tissue.
If you have swelling, fever, worsening pain or an injury, tell us when you contact the practice. For difficulty breathing or swallowing, seek urgent medical care. We treat patients Monday to Friday, 08:00 to 17:00; our WhatsApp booking assistant replies 24/7, and appointments are confirmed during practice hours.

Frequently asked questions
Can I see an urgent dentist near Little Falls today?
Contact Dr Chalita le Roux Inc to describe the problem and ask about appointment availability. We treat patients Monday to Friday, 08:00 to 17:00, and assess urgent dental concerns in person. Our WhatsApp booking assistant replies 24/7, but appointments are confirmed during practice hours. Availability depends on the schedule, so contact us as soon as you can.
Is the practice in Little Falls?
No. Dr Chalita le Roux Inc is at Unit 2 Amorosa Office Park in Amorosa, Roodepoort, near Little Falls. From Little Falls, the practice is a short drive along Hendrik Potgieter Road towards Amorosa. Check your route and traffic before travelling. The practice is not located in Little Falls itself.
What should I do if I have severe toothache?
Contact the practice and explain when the pain began, where it is and whether you have swelling, fever or an injury. Avoid chewing on the painful side and keep the area clean while waiting for advice. Pain can have several causes, so Dr le Roux needs to assess this in person before recommending treatment. Seek urgent medical care if swelling affects breathing or swallowing.
Can you treat a broken tooth in one visit?
Some broken teeth can be restored promptly, but the suitable treatment depends on how much tooth is damaged, whether the nerve is affected and how the tooth functions when you bite. Digital scanning and CEREC CAD/CAM allow many suitable crowns or veneers to be completed in a single visit. Dr le Roux will examine the tooth and explain the options, risks and likely follow-up.
Do you offer same-day crowns or veneers?
Our digital scanning and CEREC CAD/CAM workflow can complete many suitable crowns and veneers in a single visit. This may reduce time away from work and avoid repeated trips for cases that fit the workflow. Not every tooth or restoration is suitable for same-day treatment. Dr le Roux will assess your tooth, bite and clinical needs in person before advising you.
What affects the cost of urgent dental treatment?
Cost depends on the diagnosis, materials, any laboratory work, the number of teeth involved and the complexity of treatment. A straightforward repair and a more involved restoration fall into different relative tiers: $ for lower, $$ for moderate and $$$ for higher. The exact, personalised estimate is given after the consultation, in writing, before any treatment starts.
Can I book on WhatsApp outside practice hours?
Yes. Our WhatsApp booking assistant replies 24/7, so you can send a booking request at any time. We treat patients Monday to Friday, 08:00 to 17:00, and appointments are confirmed during practice hours. Sending a message outside those hours does not mean treatment is available then. Include a brief description of your concern so the team can respond appropriately.
