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 St Anne's Dental Practice. 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 St Anne's Dental Practice 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 practices 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 been using St Annes for a good time, and Susan Brink is one of the best dentists I have visited. The only annoying thing now is that I have to fill in this survey, so it stays that way.
8th June 2022
My front tooth had fallen out and I was in a panic..I went stright to St Annes and was given an appointment in one hours time. I spent the time watching a programme they had on screen about baby animals, it put me in a good mood.

I particularly like my personal dentist who is very understanding and helpful with advice.
26th May 2022
The whole team were very friendly and the dentist was very professional, I had a long appointment for a root canal to be removed, antibacterial treatment applied and sealed. I had no pain or discomfort during the procedure and was regularly asked if I was ok.Although this is the type of treatment nobody would want I was reassured before the appointment in the dentist’s ability to undertake this work and that this was the best approach if my tooth is to be saved. I am now keeping my fingers crossed it works so we can avoid an extraction…
25th May 2022
I experienced increasing pain over the weekend following an extraction the previous week. I rang for advice, the receptionist - as usual was very helpful - spoke to the dentist, rang me back a few minutes later & I was able to see the dentist & have treatment half an hour later. Everything was explained clearly & I felt I received excellent, caring treatment.

It was a positive experience from the moment I arrived. The receptionist was courteous and helpful, and the reception area felt pleasant and calm.

Jane the receptionist was kind and courteous as always, the dental nurse that Adam had was so slick you could see how excellent she is at her job and as for Adam - he’s the best dentist I have and it’s clear how much he geeks out on getting my teeth straight and healthy.

My dentist, Adam Cuthbertson, is a very competent and friendly dentist. He always explains in details the different options available and often hands me a mirror so that he can show exactly what's going to be done and why. He is friendly and courteous, as is all of the team at St Anne's Dental Clinic. By far the best dentist I have been to so far and I have been to quite a few, in the UK and abroad.
