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 Guildford Dental Centre. 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 Guildford Dental Centre 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 have not had a tooth extracted since childhood, so was frankly terrified at the prospect, even allowing for having arranged sedation. The sedation specialist was brilliant, calming and supportive, and the dentist was also very calm. The sedation worked very well, and after the treatment I was given very clear info about how to deal with any bleeding, pain, brushing near the affected area etc. As a result, I felt all had gone very well and felt confident about not having a review meeting for over a week (because the dentist was on planned leave). Having changed dentist following Jonathan's reduced days, I am now have complete confidence in Aradhana and Kavi, and it is such a relief to me. The support nurses also are very good. Many, many thanks to my new dentists!

Excellent dentist and hygienist. I receive the best dental care from this practice and have done for some years.

The Hygienist with her Nurse worked hard on the cleaning which they carried in a respectful manner, allowing breaks when I requested.Rachel Akinsanya is informative and clearly explains everything. In addition as I was only thinking this morning, she does not add too many extra steps in one go, to my cleaning regime. It is a case of taking little steps to get there, ie this time she suggested an extra blue interdental brush for cleaning.

My family and I have been coming to Guildford dental for over 20years. I saw Terry and now Derek. Jackie on reception is always very welcoming and takes time to chat when you arrive. Derek is always so professional, kind and always takes the time to discuss options. My children have just been for their check up and my daughter came out and said I really like Derek and trust him with my teeth!

I visited Guildford Dental Centre because of painful wisdom tooth issues and Dr Jonathan Tan was amazing. He was so friendly, calm and reassuring throughout the appointment and explained everything clearly which really helped. The whole team were lovely and the clinic was very welcoming. I would definitely recommend coming here.

Excellent service, welcome and making you feel relaxed by Jackie in reception.Excellent efficient and sensitive hygienist service by Rachel.Dentist Derek always efficient, offers sensible solutions and takes care of the patient.Absolutely nothing to complain about here.Your survey should have the possibility to tick a not applicable response rather than force me to only answer yes or no where not applicable was the right answer.
