It’s Friday morning and that dull toothache has now become real pain. What do you do?
Ignore it? That’s impossible!
Hope it goes away with the help of a few painkillers? That may only help in the short-term. And you have the whole weekend ahead of you.
You need to find a solution before it gets worse.
Call us straight away!
Try to call us as early in the day as possible so that we can fit you into the schedule. We keep sometimes open for emergency patients, but they fill up as people ring in during the day. Therefore the earlier you make your call, the sooner we can arrange your appointment.
The receptionist will ask you lots of questions in order to provide the treating dentist with as much information as possible.
Common questions include:
- How long has the pain been there?
- Can you identify the tooth?
- Is there any swelling on the inside or outside of the mouth?
- Does the pain come and go or is it constant?
- Have you been kept awake?
- Are you taking painkillers?
If you have pain, don’t leave it until the afternoon to call us as there is no guarantee we can see you on the same day, and you may need to wait until the following day.
If you have a problem, then it’s best to take action and call us, so we can help!
