Services
Grouped by what you have noticed, not by the clinical name. Each entry says what actually happens at the appointment — how long, how many visits, and whether anaesthetic is used.
Highest intent. Toothache, a broken tooth, a swelling, bleeding gums.
Same-day assessment
Finds what is causing the pain and either settles it or plans the treatment.
What happens — Call 01850-365326 for a serial in the next session — 10:00–14:00 or 16:00–22:00, every day. If there is a slot left in that session you will be seen the same day.

Cost is explained at the examination, before anything begins.

Every mouth is different, so no figure published on a page would be true for yours. She examines first — with a digital X-ray where it helps — explains the options and what each one would cost, and nothing starts until you have agreed to one. Ring and ask about your own case; the answer costs nothing.
