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 Rowcroft 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 Rowcroft 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!"

The location of the Dentist At Rowcroft is greatThe Reception area is pleasant and well maintained and often has educational information on the wallsCatherine on the Reception is always delightful and makes me feel very much at ease. I actually left my previous dental practice because of the unprofessional attitude of the Reception Staff, but At Rowcroft it’s an entirely different experience.Becky the hygienist is the main reason why I return for hygiene appointments as previously I found them scary and unpleasant but Becky works with you and is always positive in her approachDemetrious, the Dentist is professional and effective and definitely improve my dental experiences as I find it a scary Place. Because of his calm demeanour, I have opted to have more treatments than then I would’ve thought I’d be able to cope with.The dental nurses that are always warm and welcoming and put you at ease

I am an extremely nervous patient and sadly my teeth are not as good as they should be due to past experiences. Lucy was very kind and patient and listened to everything I had to say and answered all my fears putting me at ease. I am very happy with my dentist consultant and my hygienist Lisa too!
