How we picked emergency dentists in Sydney City

Ranking starts with which practices say they take emergency or same-day bookings, then moves to the after-hours and weekend opening times they publish. Patient feedback comes next, weighted so that practices with more reviews count for more. Each practice's own pages were read for its emergency work and treatments, and anything a practice doesn't publish is said as such. Where a practice is based outside the city centre, its entry says so.
