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!"

Great dentist, friendly reception and nice waiting area

Brais ( sorry about the spelling!) knows I do not like going to the dentist from experience when I was young. I am also disabled and have just had a hip replacement. He and all the staff are so kind and put you at ease. Their professionalism is extremely high as is their standard of care. Having been in the medical profession for over 40 years I can’t but praise their patient care.

For someone that hates going to the dentist all the staff here make the experience stress free. From my experience they always run on time which makes it stress free if I’m going to straight to work from my appointment. I can’t recommend them highly enough.

Jay is always very patient with both of my boys who attended. He explains everything clearly and offers good advice on how they can look after their teeth better. He puts both of them at ease so that they have a good experience at the dentist. The reception team are also friendly and helpful. It is quick and easy to get booked in, and to book future appointments. It’s good to have the magazines in the waiting room (ones suitable for children too) although we didn’t need to wait long and were seen straight away at our appointment time.
