Emergency dental treatment and the NHS
Comments
-
In medical terms unmanageable pain would be classed as an emergency so I find that to be a gap in the care of dental patients. I am still in a lot of pain and have a feeling that the tooth next to the one that was removed has problems too, but I am resigned to not being able to get any treatment until several weeks time.
Rose, I feel for you, constant pain gets you down.
sorry you're wrong i work OOH including dental and NHS criteria does not consider unmanageable pain and a reason for a dental appointment.0 -
I know it doesnt, that was my point as I feel it should.“A budget is telling your money where to go instead of wondering where it went.” - Dave Ramsey0
