I had an abscess in tooth with severe facial swelling , although I phoned my own dentist at 9am Friday morning I was not able to get an emergency appointment until Monday morning I phoned Dentaline on Saturday morning as the pain was severe and painkillers had no effect . The service I recieved was brilliant ,I was first assessed by phone and then given an appointment at Canterbury hospital .
I was given antibiotics , X-ray and the tooth drilled to relieve the pressure. I would like to thank everyone involved , I do not know how I would have coped until Monday.
"An essential service"
