- Linné is a dense inner-city district with several dental clinics on and around Linnégatan — but no out-of-hours clinic that is open evenings and weekends.
- There is no permanent out-of-hours dental clinic in the district. Out-of-hours dental care in Gothenburg means a few times that private clinics keep open, and what is on offer changes from day to day.
- The location helps: from Linnégatan it is only a few minutes by tram to Hagakyrkan, Vasaplatsen and Avenyn, so in practice all of central Gothenburg is within reach.
- Tandakut Nu is a referral service. Send an enquiry and we will call you if we can help. The clinic provides the care.

Emergency dental care in Linné
Linnéstaden, usually just called Linné, is one of Gothenburg's liveliest inner-city districts. It is built around Linnégatan, which runs for just under a kilometre from Järntorget in the north to Linnéplatsen by Slottsskogen park. The district includes Olivedal, Annedal, Kommendantsängen and parts of Masthugget. It is a dense area of old stone and wooden-framed apartment buildings, with cafés, restaurants and shops along Linnégatan and Andra Långgatan. Many people live, work and move around here every day, so the need for fast emergency dental care is real.
Tandakut Nu is a referral service and only works with private clinics. Right now we have no connected clinic, and we would rather say so plainly than list clinics we have no agreement with. If you are looking for Folktandvården (the public dental service), contact Folktandvården Västra Götaland directly. If you want help finding a private emergency appointment in or near the district, describe your problem in the form below. We review enquiries during office hours (weekdays) and call you if we can help.
Out-of-hours care and getting to a clinic from Linné
Trams 1, 2 and 6 stop at Järntorget, Prinsgatan, Olivedalsgatan and Linnéplatsen. From there it is only a few minutes to the clinic areas around Hagakyrkan, Vasaplatsen and Avenyn. The travel time is usually shorter than waiting for a time to open up on exactly the right street.
There is no address on Linnégatan where you can walk in on a Sunday evening and expect to be seen. Individual private clinics keep a few times open for emergencies — often late afternoons, sometimes the odd weekend shift. Contact them as early in the day as you can, and expect that the appointment may be somewhere else in central Gothenburg. We don't state opening hours that we have not checked with the clinic.
- Weekday, office hours: a clinic in or near Linné is usually both the closest and the fastest option.
- Weekday evening: get in touch early; evening times are few and are released during the day.
- Weekend: expect central Gothenburg rather than the district itself.
- Night: no regular dental care is open. If you have fever with swelling, or difficulty breathing or swallowing, go to an emergency department or call 112.
When do you need emergency dental care?
These are the problems that make people in Linnéstaden look for emergency dental care instead of waiting for a regular appointment:
- toothache that keeps you awake or makes it hard to eat
- a swollen tooth or swollen gums
- a suspected infection, pus or pressure
- a knocked-out tooth after a fall, blow or accident
- a lost filling or crown that hurts
- a cracked or broken tooth
- bleeding from the gums that does not stop
- a wisdom tooth that swells or makes it hard to open your mouth
Get care straight away — do not wait for a dental appointment — if you have fever together with swelling, swelling that grows fast or spreads towards the eye or neck, or difficulty swallowing, opening your mouth or breathing. Go to an emergency department, or call 112 for life-threatening symptoms.
How Tandakut Nu works
Tandakut Nu is a Swedish referral service. We pass your contact on to a private clinic if we can help you. We do not book anything on your behalf.
- You choose an area and a preferred time, and leave your contact details and a short description for the dentist. No personal identity number.
- We review enquiries during office hours (weekdays) and call you if we can help.
- If you say yes on the phone, the clinic gets your details and confirms the time with you. The clinic is responsible for examination, diagnosis, treatment and price.
The service is free for you as a patient. We can't guarantee that an appointment is available — the clinics decide that, not us. Many dentists in Gothenburg speak English, but we can't promise it for a specific clinic.
Evenings and weekends
Most private clinics in Linnéstaden keep normal weekday hours. Emergency care in the evening and at weekends is mostly handled by emergency clinics and by clinics that keep a few emergency times open. It changes from day to day, and we give no opening hours we have not checked with the clinic.
- Weekday evening: send your enquiry as early as you can.
- Weekend: expect that a time may be in central Gothenburg, even if you live in another area.
- Night: no regular dental care is open. With fever, or difficulty breathing or swallowing: go to an emergency department or call 112.
What does emergency dental care cost?
The clinic sets the price, not Tandakut Nu, and it depends on what the dentist needs to do. We publish no prices for individual clinics in Linnéstaden — only the general ranges for private emergency dental care in Sweden.
- Emergency examination: usually 500–1 200 SEK
- X-ray: from about 80 SEK per image (reference price 2026) – private clinics often charge more
- Treatment: from about 1 000 SEK and up, depending on what is done
You have the right to a written cost estimate before treatment starts. You pay the clinic directly. If you are covered by the Swedish dental subsidy system, the general dental allowance (ATB) and high-cost protection also apply to emergency care. You don't need a Swedish personal number to send an enquiry.
Emergency dentist near Linnéstaden
Linné borders Järntorget and Masthugget to the north, Majorna to the west and Slottsskogen to the south, with Vasastaden and Hagakyrkan just east of Annedal. That makes these areas the realistic alternatives when there is no time in the district:
Questions about emergency dental care in Linnéstaden
Is there an out-of-hours dentist in Linné?
No, there is no permanent out-of-hours clinic in Linnéstaden. Out-of-hours dental care in Gothenburg means a few times that private clinics keep open outside normal hours, and this changes from day to day. Get in touch as early as you can, and expect that the appointment may be somewhere else in central Gothenburg. We don't state opening hours we have not checked with the clinic.
Is there an emergency dentist in Linnéstaden itself?
There are dental clinics on and around Linnégatan, and during office hours one of them can often see emergencies. Right now Tandakut Nu has no connected clinic, and we don't list clinics we have no agreement with. Send an enquiry and we will call you if we can help.
How quickly can I get from Linné to an emergency appointment in central Gothenburg?
A few minutes. From Linnégatan the tram goes towards Hagakyrkan, Vasaplatsen and Avenyn, and Järntorget is at the north end of the street. So it is almost always faster to take a confirmed time in the city centre than to wait for a time on exactly the right address in the district.
Where do I go for emergency dental care if I live in Annedal or Olivedal?
Annedal is closest to Vasastaden and Hagakyrkan, and Olivedal is in the middle of Linné around Olivedalsgatan and Prinsgatan. From both, central Gothenburg is a few minutes away. Choose the clinic that can give you a confirmed time first, not the one closest on the map.
Can I go to Folktandvården instead?
Tandakut Nu only works with private clinics and never refers to Folktandvården. For Folktandvården's emergency and out-of-hours dental care in Gothenburg, contact Folktandvården Västra Götaland directly.
When should I seek emergency medical care instead of a dentist?
If you have fever together with swelling, swelling that grows fast or spreads towards the eye or neck, or difficulty swallowing, opening your mouth or breathing, seek care immediately — don't wait for a dental appointment. Go to an emergency department, or call 112 for life-threatening symptoms.
