School of dentistry

Does anyone know if the belfast school of dentistry at the royal victoria hospital takes walk in or do you need an appointment?

I have toothache on my back broken molar and part of my gum has grown over it. Clove oil is helping but only slightly and I cant swallow tablets but I have had six soluabel disprin already today.

I am not registered to any dentist.

PLEASE HELP.

There's a list of phone numbers at http://www.belfasttrust.hscni.net/trust/The_Royal_Hospitals.html which includes a phone number for the walk-in clinic at the School of Dentistry - doesn't give the hours it's open, but there might be emergency info on an answering machine if you try the number.

Thanks, although the sister in law says that as it is july most of the students willbe away home for the summer so just to go to a+e and they will sort me out, thanks anyway

it's usually open weekday mornings for walk in - not sure about holiday time though. get there early if you do go as the queue fills up very quickly and car parking is a nightmare after 9.

alternatively, you could go to A&E and you might get some strong painkillers to tide you over.

only problem is that the painkillers will more than likely be ones that you have to swallow and I cant, I gag on them and trying to get to belfast for 9 means getting a very early bus from ballyclare and then another one up there but again thanks
