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 Temple Square Dental. 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 Temple Square Dental 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!"

From my first contact with the dentist practice as a new patient it's been so lovely. Sarah the co ordinator was amazing shared all the information I needed with me and went above and beyond to help me receive my treatment. Then when I saw the dentist Dr prab she was amazing as I felt abit embarrassed by my teeth after not going to the dentist for years she made me feel so comfortable along with the dental nurse who was just lovely and made me feel at ease. I then had an appointment with the hygienist lucie who cleaned my teeth which made a massive difference and given me some confidence back and she explained to me what I need to do to keep my gums cleaned. I would highly recommend this place to anyone this is by far the best dentist i have been to.

Just wanted to share what a fantastic dental team this practise has. I’ve been visiting for the last 5 years and every-time it’s been faultless. I’ve had wisdom teeth removed in past and Aaron (the dentist) was extremely reassuring with the procedure. He’s had a very courteous and professional outlook to dental care that is very reassuring. Luci is my hygienist who is a delight to deal with. I was told she was very thorough with the clean and teeth always look sparkling when I leave. Thanks to you all

I recently had my wisdom teeth removed at temple square dental , and I couldn’t be more impressed with the level of care I received. The entire process was handled with professionalism, from the initial consultation through to the procedure itself. The team made me feel at ease, clearly explained each step, and ensured I was comfortable throughout. Dr Prab carried out the procedure to a very high standard, and my recovery has been smooth thanks to their excellent aftercare advice. I would highly recommend this practice to anyone needing dental treatment, especially for more complex procedures like wisdom tooth removal.

The clinician was concerned about more than just teeth; I was treated as a person, not merely a case to be dealt with.

12th April 2026

I was seen promptly and given the hygienic experience I expected, having always received this level of expert treatment from Lucie.

I hadn't been to the dentist in some time and I was so nervous/embarrassed. And oh my goodness I was blown away by how kind, caring the staff were. From the minute I booked my appointment as a new patient to having the appointment and discussing what I needed etc. I couldn't recommend this dentist enough. I walked out of there feeling so much better as my teeth are by biggest insecurity.

Friendly reception staff. Dentist and dental nurse very friendly and caring with my children making them feel at ease

4th April 2026

Everyone from Dentist to Hygenist, to dental nurses and receptionists are very friendly and sensitive to individual patients' specific needs and mobility and health issues. Best dentist practice I have ever attended and have recommended them to friends and relatives.

3rd April 2026

Clinician was extremely helpful and extremely thorough, she helped me immensely to understand issues and devise a plan going forward that we were both happy with. There was a slight but of unprofessionalism from the reception team, however that did not hinder my experience too much. I look forward to returning to Temple Square Dental in the future.

Everyone has been very helpful, as always, explaining everything and been very polite and very professional
