not much good are they??

You should ring your dentist if your teeth hurt

Well it's after 11 on Saturday night

Yes but they have a duty of care

fairly pointless wasn't it

I think I'll send DH off to the garage to get some Ibuprofen

Talk about stating the obvious! Not at all helpful, could have given advice. Posted on your other thread, have you taken AB's yet?

Yes, get ibuprofen!

starlover · 21/01/2006 23:37

also, if you go to a&e there is usually an emergency dentist there

melissasmummy · 21/01/2006 23:38

Katy, where are you? How's it going?

katymac · 21/01/2006 23:39

I'm in Norfolk & I'm off to a garage

Catch you all later

Thanks

OK

I got the ibuprofen (& hopefully the codeine and the ibuprofen will cancel each other out)

If it's still bad in the am - I will take the AB's and phone the dentist on Monday am (cos there is no way I'm brave enough to see an alternative dentist)

So thank you all for you support

I'm sorry I'm such a wuss

NHS Direct are pathetic when it comes to dentistry. Hope you feel better/get dental help soon Katy.
