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!"

I've been a patient with your surgery for around 7 years and have only had positive experiences. This particular appointment was to have a wisdom tooth removed. My dentist is fabulous. He knew I was nervous and between him and the dental nurse, they went out of their way to help me relax. My nerves came from a previous experience with a different dental practice and this experience was completely different. I felt no pain, and it was calm all the way through.

The treatment that I received and always receive is exemplary. I feel comfortable with my dentist and hygienist, the support staff are excellent, always taking into account my specific needs and time constraints without any stress.

Shirley is my new hygienist at the practice after being with Debbie for quite few years. I can honestly say I was really impressed and felt at ease straight away. Shirley is very experienced and very informative in all that did. Really happy with her treatment and very happy she is my new hygienist after leaving Debbie as they are both really nice and great at there work. Paul McCarthy Snettisham Norfolk

Regular check up with Sarah (hygienist). As always Sarah greeted me with a cheery welcome and I felt at ease and comfortable right from the start. With her friendly manner it’s easy to forget that I’m there for a professional appointment and not for a social catch-up.
