Maria's dental emergency

Maria had been experiencing toothache - enduring 6 weeks of pain, reaching the point where she could no longer eat. At this point Maria booked an emergency appointment with us at Lynn Road Dental Practice. She called the clinic first thing in the morning and we booked her in within a few hours to see the dentist.

What we did

We saw Maria as soon as we could. Although our dentists are booked up well in advance we always leave a few appointments each day for the unforeseen emergency. When Maria came in, we took time to understand the problem and then used a digital X-Ray to help diagnose the issue as well as examine the tooth and surrounding areas carefully.

Outcome

The X-Ray showed Maria had an infection. Our dentist prescribed a course of antibiotics and invited Maria back a week later to ensure the problem had been resolved.

What did Maria say?

"I have been going to Lynn Road Dental Practice for over 25 years and I wouldn't consider changing to another clinic as I am always happy with service. I always get a warm and friendly welcome from all the team. I felt a few twinges with my tooth a while ago, but this had developed to the point where my mouth was swollen and I was in so much pain that I couldn’t eat. I was so relieved when I called the practice and they said they could see me the same day! The experience was actually fine, brilliant! My dentist gave me a course of antibiotics and I made a review appointment to see her a week later. I felt things had improved and she examined the area to check that was the case and the infection had gone. I am now totally out of pain and booked in for my 6 month Dental health review and with the hygienist too!"

Always great care. This occasion it was an urgent appointment as I had broken a tooth. I phoned in the morning and was offered an appointment the same day. The treatment was then completed in the same appointment.

The overall patient experience from checking in with the receptionist,who was both friendly and efficient,to my treatment with the dentist,ably assisted by the dental nurse. No problems or issues were encountered and it was a hassle free appointment. The waiting area,which must see a high volume of footfall during the day,was very clean,tidy and gave an impression of a caring and professional evironment.In the past,at other dental practices where I have been a patient,the waiting area has resembled a jumble sale but not in this practice.Long may it continue!

The dentist made my daughter feel at ease. It was her first injection and a tooth extraction and she felt at ease and safe. It was all done very quickly and efficiently

Dentist was very attentive and could tell I was nervous.Has a tooth the size of a lions pulled out and he made sure it was on “my terms” and if I wanted to stop for any reason to let him know.

There were no negative issues. I booked in, didn’t have time to sit in the waiting room before being call in for treatment. Treatment explained clearly, and completed. My next appointment was confirmed, and having thanked the staff, I left.

6th December 2024

Never had any sort of problem with the practice. Polite and friendly staff. The only downside it is becoming expensive for treatment.

I love my dentist because he knows I'm a nervous patient and he's so kind

The whole team is great from the moment of initial contact to signing off treatment. I am on a dental plan so the routine preventative treatments are covered. I always feel reassured and as a nervous patient, more relaxed
