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 Mortiboys Dental Spa. 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 Mortiboys Dental Spa 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!"

One of the things I like the most about Mortiboys is that it doesn't feel or smell like a dentists, so it put's me at ease immediately.Staff are always very friendly and the patient care from Marc is exemplary. He has a way of explaining things without terrifying you.

Great Dentist. Ranya is very professional. She considers the problem and finds the best solution. She is very gentle and meticulous. I highly recommend her.

This was an emergency appointment with Amit Gadhavi to alleviate severe tooth ache. He examined, discussed the options, removed the filling, cleaned the root canal and applied a temporary cap. The treatment was uncomfortable but not painful (he saw to that immediately). He explained the options and has referred me to his recommended specialist for the root canal treatment. I have complete faith in Amit.

Clare Wood is the reason I keep returning to Mortiboys. She is the most fabulous hygienist and has prevented any dental issues I may have developed. Clare Wood is outstanding.

Amit and Caron have been absolutely brilliant at helping with my gum disease. They are kind, gentle and very knowledgeable, taking my complex medical history into account and explaining everything in detail. I used to be nervous of going to the dentist, not anymore though. Everyone at Mortiboys has been brilliant, no exceptions, thank you so much.

Another great experience at Mortiboys Dental Spa this morning for hygiene and a checkup. The staff are courteous, kind, patient and very friendly. As a nervous patient, I always appreciate their special care. I can’t recommend this beautiful dental spa highly enough. It really is a five star service.

I can’t speak highly enough of Clare who is my dental hygienist. From the moment you sit in her chair, she brings a rare combination of professionalism, warmth, and genuine care that immediately puts you at ease. She has an exceptional attention to detail and takes the time to explain everything clearly, making sure you feel informed and comfortable throughout the entire appointment.
