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!"

My dental journey with Dr Prab Morgan started in September 2024 and was completed in July 2026.<br><br>Having always feared dental treatment, the care, patience and reassurance from Dr Morgan and the whole team made a huge difference. After nearly two years, I genuinely feel like I have a new mouth, with a huge improvement in my confidence and quality of life.<br><br>A massive thank you to Dr Morgan and the entire team for their kindness, professionalism and exceptional care. Absolutely worth the journey!

I always feel welcome and listened to when I'm at Temple Square, especially when I see Aaron. I've also didn't have to wait too long past my appointment time!

My experience is truly amazing with the Temple Street Surgery. The full marks are my honest opinion as I have had support at every point of my tricky problem. It seems that they are a very cohesive and well-functioning Team that reflect onto the patients. I had been to many surgeries during my life but I find the Team here provides the most excellent service and expertise.

The appointment time was given as a cancellation as I was concerned to get the tooth repaired as soon as I could in case it got any further damage. I was pleased to be able to get the work done well before I went on holiday. I always receive high quality care from Prab and have been a patient of hers for many years.

The only comment I can make is that when I entered the hygenists room, she did not turn away from her screen. I had to repeatedly ask her to repeat herself as she has a strong accent, wears a mask and had her face away from me. As a matter of courtesy, she should have greater me face to face as the nurse did
