I know there hasn't been access to dentists over corona (what have people with dental pain been doing!?) but want to know what to expect if I try and get help tomorrow.
My daughter 8 has v bad teeth.. a mix of an odd condition and cavities ( I know, I know, but other child didnt have them). She was due to have a tooth out and others looked at by a dental hospital (2hours away) but as it wasnt caising her pain it wasnt urgent.
Anyway now shes in a lot of dental pain. I can see a gap and assume either it was a huge filling that came out or a cavity thats got bigger...
I've given her calpol... but what do we do? We are under the local specialist paediatric dentist so will ring them in the morning but I didnt think they were seeing people ...
And if it needs to come out (a back tooth) they cant do general anaesthetic as had been planned there...
She is terrified of dentists so if it isn"t the special kid friendly people she's not going to handle an extracrion.
Im really anxious.
